This book is about the 'how' of desertification control as opposed
to an analysis of the 'why' and fills a gap in the
desertification-related literature in that it shows what to do in
situations ranging from fixing mobile sands to arresting
accelerated soil erosion in sloping lands. There are numerous
illustrations to show the successful techniques. This compilation
demonstrates that desertification and land degradation can be
controlled and reversed with existing techniques in such widely
varying environments as the Sahel of Africa to Sri Lanka and the
Philippines in SE Asia, from mountains in Lesotho to low lands on
desert margins in Mongolia. Proven approaches include technical
interventions, changes in governance and to the legislative
framework and policy reform. The book fills a gap in the
desertification-related literature in that it shows what to do in
situations ranging from fixing mobile sands to arresting
accelerated soil erosion in sloping lands.
