Types and Distribution of Waste Lands in Swarnamukhi River Basin, Chittoor District, Andhra Pradesh

Abstract

The present study, the survey of wasteland in the Swarnamukhi basin, differs, in many respect from the usual approach adopted in any project study.  As already explained it is a novel experiment. It is not just a study of the problem, which closes with suggestions and recommendations. It is much more than that. The primary aim of the study is to (1) highlight the actual problems and prospects indicating findings and giving suggestions, (2) to provide the basic infrastructure for the wasteland to be developed by the implementing agencies.
