Greater Central Asia encompasses a vast area that includes deserts,
natural grasslands, steppes, shrublands and alpine regions. Many of
these land types are degraded and productivity is falling at a time
when human populations and livestock inventories are on the rise.
Ecosystem stability and biodiversity are under threat and there is
an urgent need to develop more sustainable land management regimes.
This book uses an integrated regional approach to provide a
comprehensive exploration of sustainable land development in
Central Asia. An interdisciplinary team of experts analyses the
economic, ecological, sociological, technological and political
factors surrounding sustainable land and water management in the
region, sharing potential problems and solutions. As international
concern about desertification grows, the book concludes by asking
how the region is likely to develop in the future. This book will
be of value to scholars, students, policy makers and NGOs with an
interest in sustainable development in Central Asia.
