It essentially relates to scientific management of resources, protection of land against all forms of degradation, enhancement and maintenance of soil fertility, conservation of water for watershed use, improvement of productivity under all types of land uses, agriculture and sustenance of animals as well as people within a physiographic unit. This book is related to geo-environment status of a watershed. It deals with morphometric analysis to identify the suitable sites for natural resource conservation. Topographical sheets, satellite image and field observation are used to identify the various topographical features and the status of natural resources in watershed area. The guidelines in this book are intented as a reference for those working in the field of watershed.
