Uttarakhand is blessed with an immense amount of natural resources such as forests, wildlife and water, but if you are looking for some research-based information that quantifies, classifies and organizes this information, there isn’t much out there. This book, ‘Conserving resources in the Himalayas’, was written to document this data and to also acknowledge the work of many people who are actively involved in conservation efforts in the area – the government, academic organizatifons, NGOs and ordinary citizens. Written in the local language (Hindi), this book fills the gap that once existed for research-based writing on the Himalayan region that also presents the view of the Himalayan peoples.
“Our natural resources form the most important part of our earth. They have the capacity to satisfy all our needs and desires such as food, water, air and clothes. The Himalayas are rich in natural resources. Water, forests, flora and fauna are all abundant here. Due to the terrain they pack an incredible amount of biodiversity in a relatively small area. These are now under stress due to over-extraction. Conservation of these valuable resources is now crucial. The wise use, development and conservation of our natural resources is every individual's duty.”
The book is broadly classified into 5 parts: soil conservation, water conservation, forest conservation, mixed conservation and miscellaneous.
Soil Conservation
1. Classification of Himalayan land: Dr. SK Bandooni
The author argues that a piece of land must be analysed scientifically before it is used. It is important to study its characteristics and understand what could harm it. Failing to do this, might harm the land and even leave it unproductive. 9 sets of data are used to classify the Himalayas. These include slope, topography, vegetation, rainfall and land use patterns among others. The area is divided into six parts depending on the suitability of the land for particular uses such as irrigated and rain-fed agriculture, afforestation etc. The author has used published data as well as findings from his own research to classify the Alakananda basin per this method.
2. Land use classification of the Nanda-Devi biodiversity area: Dr. MS Pawar and Vijay Pokhriyal
As the title suggests, this paper examines the Nanda Devi biodiversity reserve. It begins with an overview of the geography, demographics (including livelihood practices) and the climate of the area. It explains the nuances involved in managing a biodiversity reserve, its impact and the resultant conflict. It ends with suggestions for better management of the reserved forest.
