| EXTENDED AND ADDITIONAL PRINCIPLES
Formerly, food, feed and fibres were the main products considered in land evaluation. During recent decades, however, concerns related to sustainability, water quality, biodiversity and carbon storage have gained importance. Therefore, the potential for delivery of a number of key goods and services valued by society will have to be evaluated and monitored together with the production-related goals. Concerns evolving around social equity have given rise to the view that land use and land resources analysis should consider stakeholders and sectors involved. Land evaluation should therefore aim to be a participatory and cross-sectoral process that allows for review and adaptation to new circumstances with time. In line with sustainable development, the land evaluation process should set performance indicators for socio-cultural and economic values alongside agro-ecological outcomes. The above considerations imply the need for an integrated evaluation of the land and monitoring of the land resources. The principles to be taken into account for land evaluation should comprise the six principles formulated in the 1976 Framework, which are still valid, augmented and extended when necessary, and complemented by two new principles. Thus, eight principles are put forward that should govern land evaluation. These principles, listed below, envisage assessment for sustainable production of goods and provision of environmental services valued by society, ensuring social equity through stakeholder participation. i. Land suitability is assessed and classified with respect to specified kinds of use and services. Land evaluation – towards a revised framework 30 ii. Land evaluation requires a comparison of benefits obtained and the inputs needed on different kinds of land to assess their productive potential and environmental services, and the social equity (sustainable livelihood) of the land use. iii. Land evaluation requires a multi-disciplinary and cross-sectoral approach. iv. Land evaluation should take into account the biophysical, economic, social and political context as well as the environmental concerns. v. Suitability refers to use on a sustained basis. The sustainability concept includes productivity, social equity and environmental aspects. vi. Land evaluation involves a comparison of more than one kind of use or service. vii. Land evaluation needs to consider the needs, preferences and views of all stakeholders. viii. The scale and level of decision-making needs to be clearly defined prior to the land evaluation process. tải về 0.57 Mb. Chia sẻ với bạn bè của bạn:
