Title	SOIL EROSION LIMITS FOR LAKSHADWEEP ARCHIPELAGO Not Available

Creator	D MANDAL KP TRIPATHI

Subject	CONSERVATION PLAN, SOIL EROSION, SOIL LOSS TOLERANCE, SOIL SUSTAINABILITY

Description	Not Available SOIL LOSS TOLERANCE LIMITS (T VALUE) DEFINE THE SOIL LOSS AMOUNTS THAT ARE TOLERABLE TO MAINTAIN , CONTINUOUSLY AND ECONOMICALLY, THE SUSTAINABILITY OF SOIL PRODUCTIVITY . WITHIN THESE LIMITS, SOIL EROSION AND SOIL FORMATION PROCESSES ARE IN EQUILIBRIUM. THE LAKSHADWEEP ISLANDS IS PRONE TO SOIL EROSION AND ABOUT 20 RUNNING KILOMETER SEASHORE LINE IS BEING SUBJECTED TO SEVERE EROSION. THE UNIQUE LAND AND SOILS OF THE LAKSHADWEEP CORAL ISLANDS REQUIRE CAREFUL MANAGEMNT TO PROTECT THE FRAGILE ECOSYSTEM. SOILS OF TEN INHABITATED ISLANDS OF LAKSHADWEEP WERE STUDIED IN DETAIL TO ASSIGN T VALUES, FOR SUGGESTING A CONSERVATION PLAN. THE T VALUE FOR THE WHOLE ARCHIPELAGO VARIED BETWEEN 7.5 AND 12.5 T HA-1 YR-1. THE SPATIAL DEILLENIATION OF SOILS WITH RESPECT TO T VALUE CAN FACILITATE THE MANAGEMENT OF THESE VALUABLE RESOURCES AND PREVENT THEIR DEGRADATION . Not Available
