Description
This book applies the concept of sustainable development operationally to the development of the forest, water, agricultural and livestock sectors of one of India's most `underdeveloped' districts. In so doing, the authors undertake a detailed modelling of the linkages between the ecological and economic sectors, making this an original and significant study in methodological terms.
