Which of the following statement is true? |
The per capita forest land in the India is only 0.08 hectare against the requirement of 0.47 hectare to meet basic needs. Unsustainable fuel wood and fodder extraction is responsible for land degradation. India supports approximately 17 per cent of the world’s human and 20 per cent of livestock population on a mere 2.5 per cent of the world’s geographical area. All of these |
All of these |
The correct answer is Option 4: All of these India supports approximately 17 per cent of the world’s human and 20 per cent of livestock population on a mere 2.5 per cent of the world’s geographical area. The per capita forest land in the country is only 0.06 hectare against the requirement of 0.47 hectare to meet basic needs, resulting in an excess felling of about 15 million cubic metre forests over the permissible limit. Unsustainable fuel wood and fodder extraction is responsible for land degradation.
