Question

Effective management of land and water resources will drastically reduce human miseries

Answer 1

Answer:

Agricultural land is diverted for industrial uses nowadays. This leads to displacement and risks for food security. Proper allocation of land can alleviate food problems of the world as well as alleviate misery of the displaced farmers.

2. Innovative methods of land acquisition such as land pooling (recently done for Andhra Pradesh’s new capital, Amravathi) can make the land owners partners in development and alleviate their suffering.

3. Cooperative farming can lead to better productivity from the same land, increase rural incomes, and alleviate the miseries of small and marginal farmers.
