| Abstract
|
:
|
"Conserving Land, Protecting Water includes an overview of global patterns of land and water degradation and discusses new insights drawn from successful case studies on reversing soil and water degradation, as well as their impact on food and environmental security. Drawing on the fields of ecology, agricultural and soil sciences, hydrology, development studies and political science, this book will provide both academics and policy makers with innovative ideas for how sustainable water use and food production can be achieved through the prevention of land degradation."--BOOK JACKET.
