In the backdrop of varying socio cultural milieu, changing climatic regimes and often conflicting demands of various stakeholders, there is an urgent need for augmenting and accelerating the efforts for conservation of biological diversity in India, and for fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from the utilisation of genetic resources.
Loose and friable nature of soil, steep slopes and undulating terrain, faulty agricultural practices, reckless cutting and removal of trees, uncontrolled grazing and other adverse biotic factors have aggravated the problem leading to erosion, rain cuts and formation of gullies and ravines. These have done immense damage to fertile cultivable land and irreparable loss of topsoil.
