Challenges And Opportunities For Resource Management In The Nagpur Desert Ecosystem: An Ecological Study Of Land, Water, And Human Resources

Abstract

Effective resource management is essential for the sustainability of the desert ecosystem in Nagpur district, India. This paper provides an ecological study of resource management in the region, focusing on land, water, and human resources. The assessment of current resource use practices revealed unsustainable practices, such as over-extraction of groundwater, deforestation, and unsustainable agricultural practices, which have led[1] to the degradation of the Ecosystem and the depletion of natural resources. An integrated approach is necessary to ensure sustainable resource management, which balances the needs of the Ecosystem and the local communities. This includes promoting sustainable water management, land use planning, human resource management, and climate adaptation strategies. Future research should focus on identifying practical approaches to promote the sustainable use of natural resources while ensuring the well-being of local communities.
