As the Indian population continues to grow there will be an immense competition for natural resources while achieving food, nutritional, environmental and livelihood security in the country. In addition, the negative consequences of climate change become more evident in agriculture with exploitation of natural resources, decline in soil fertility, ground water levels to meet the ever increasing demands for food and nutritional requirements. To maintain sustainable balance between natural resources and the demand, immediate attention is needed in several areas viz., imbalanced use of fertilizers, declining soil organic carbon, lowering of water table, soil health, organic farming and climate change impact in agriculture sector.

Recent studies on soil biodiversity, rapid composting techniques, use of bio-filters for removal of heavy metals from compost, application of Nano sensors in agriculture to improve nutrient use efficiency, need based fortification of micro nutrients; availability of soil health card, conservation agriculture for enhancing soil health etc. will support sustainable management of natural resources in agriculture.

With a particular focus on scientific and technical understanding of natural resources management, this portal tries to incorporate stakeholders suggestions in achieving sustainable natural resources management.

It seams the Police are helping criminals to escape after crimes rather than truly apprehend them this is crimilising society.Duty of Police is investigation of truth.To place before courts the truth of the crime or occurrence.Courts are meant to sift materials & see whether legally it is possible to convict a person on the materials or acquit .As a matter of fact no Dishonest person can be in the Police Only then will the Police do their duty properly.Courts cant be blamed for acquittals.

Give land to tribals where forest is not present.give them on long term lease to use and develope the land for fruit trees and for wood.this may be the best compensation to tribals if govt wants to displace from green forest.

PM says: Saving Power is Serving Nation. KFP (patented)RWH can save power required for irrigation by harvesting ample rain water underground as soil-moisture & supplying it to crop roots , without using electricity Agriculture consumes approx. 35% power in India. Underground RWH can save 50-80% power in a farm where it is implemented. That can be a huge saving at National level.visit www.varshajal.com for details or contact me ph 09822053690

For promoting solar based electricity project we better start it from rural area rather then city area . It will need more marketing but It will be to easy to capture the market also because they will be having empty spaces and also we can create awareness like for one small village we set up solar panel as per need. And then we can look towards big cities. And for that we can set up demo villages based on solar based electricity with lottery system for each state

As we have very less infrastructure and also don't have very big giants in our country. Every idea or initiative we always think at small scale. I believe we should push this solar generated electricity project for everyone . That is how we can create market of free electricity and our weather cycle support this idea very much. And also come up with some solid establishment and improvement in waste management. Our people have this mentality to support it.

Dear Sir, The main thing that the General people and the firmer do not have any good knowledge about to proper use of our natural resources and we can get a great profit from nature without hampering the Originality of Nature. So, we have to know first how a firmer can earn more using natural resources without hampering it.We have super water power as Brahmaputra river. But till date not a single firmer get any help from this river. Just got bad effects only.We can get 24 hour electricity also.

Instead ofdoing agriculture in open areas we can do agriculture and other farming related activities inside skyscrapers. This will leads to development without harming the farmers. Suppose a farmer give his land for any purpose to a company then that company should provide him the first floor for farming and the money from lease will help the farmer to buy essential items.this idea can be imposed on both barren lands as well as on fertile lands.any calamity will not effect the production ofcrop

Sir, Natural Resources are wasted daily due to erratic electricity and water supply, if on pan India bases we are able to provide stable electricity and water, a lot of Natural Resources can be saved and rural productivity can be increased.
