Natural resources are vital for meeting the food, livelihood and environmental security. It is now widely accepted that future of food, livelihood and environmental security depends upon the attention paid to conservation, sustainable development and management of natural resources. Research carried out over the last five decades have clearly demonstrated that resource conserving technological interventions, water harvesting and improved cultivation practices have the potential to improve utilization of natural resources and significantly enhance crop productivity in the country. The present book contains selected papers presented in FFCSWR-2014 and is compilation of various topical issues on the prime concerns of natural resource conservation in arable and non-arable lands, soil-water resource development and conservation, diversification of crops and farming systems, management of various ecosystems, people's participation, livelihoods, socio-economic development, success stormiest. The selected papers are contributed by scientists, officers, scholars having wide experience in the field of natural resource management with reference to northern India and other states having common interests and implications for the regional development. The book is organized in 5 sections: Natural Resource Conservation Technologies, Water Resource Development and Improved Irrigation Systems, Alternate Land Use Systems, Participatory Watershed Management Programs and Success Stories and Brief Proceedings and Recommendations of the FFCSWR 2014. We hope, the book will be of immense importance for scientists, teachers, scholars, policy makers and extension agencies working in the area of natural resource conservation and management.
