dc.description.abstract | Space technology in India, has come a long way in providing valuable information, in spatiotemporal domains, for the development of various sectors like agriculture, forestry, water resources, ocean resources, etc. that have direct relevance to the economic development of the nation. The achievements in the applications of space technology towards societal benefits are numerous and impressive. The major applications of this technology towards agricultural development in rainfed areas include timely assessment of crop condition and production, surface and ground water potentials, status of soil productivity and land degradation, monitoring of land use, road connectivity in rural areas and inputs for development of action plans for sustainable agriculture. About 70% of Indian agriculture is rainfed where soil and water play a significant role in crop production. Spatial and temporal variations of resources, coupled with mismanagement, result in inefficient utilization of these resources for production purposes. Management of these resources on watershed basis has long been identified as more scientific, sustainable and is the only viable alternative to prevent the food shortage and check environmental degradation. Watershed management Programme in India is about 5 decade old. Various guidelines for watershed development programmes have been framed from time to time which have dealt in detail the objectives, criteria for selection of priority watersheds, ensuring the participation of the beneficiaries, implementation methodology and monitoring strategies. Space technology has now reached a stage, where natural resources can be continuously monitored either at nation, state, district or at watershed basis. Thus, various facets of sustainable development ranging from global processes to watershed development, remote sensing can play a vital role in generating information at various scales. Integration of the research information for solving the resources problems and providing specific action plans for land and water resources development using space inputs enables better management of agricultural resources to meet the current and future basic requirements, besides improving the quality of life in rural areas. | en_US |
