Land and water are two important finite natural resources, which
due to haphazard and unscrupulous exploitation are diminishing
at a faster pace. In present scenario, prediction of climate change
plays a key role in adverse weather monitoring to maintain the
current global food and water security. India consists of 2.4% of
world land resources, 4% of water resources but 16% of world
population and contributes 8% of global GDP. Therefore, due to
increasing population, land and water resources are under
enormous pressure which emphasis on sustainable use of natural
resources. There is a need of inculcation of advanced technology
like sensor based precision irrigation, geospatial techniques and
ground water exploration, assessment and modelling approaches
to overcome the crisis of natural resources. Sensor based irrigation
helps in rationale of irrigation scheduling, geospatial techniques in
the monitoring of natural resources and exploration and modelling
approaches of groundwater resources to overcome rapid depletion
and contamination of ground water. Therefore, keeping in view of
recent advancement, the present study was undertaken on
“Research and Technology status: Emerging opportunities in land
and water management”.
