Land use pattern refers to how the land is used and for what purpose. How differently the land is occupied naturally
(i) Land resources in India are primarily divided into
agricultural land,
forest land,
land meant for pasture and grazing, land
for other non-agricultural use( housing, roads
industry etc.)
waste land (rocky, arid and desert areas).
According to 2002-03,
54 per cent of the total land area was cultivable or fallow,
22.5 per cent was covered by forests 3.5 per cent was used for grazing.
The rest was waste land, with traces of miscellaneous cultivation.
Human effect on land
Improper use of forest land has degraded the available land area and made conservation of forests difficult. Human activities such as deforestation, mining and quarrying have contributed to the slow growth rate of forests.
Thus, land ’ under forest has increased by only about 4 per cent since
1960-61.
