| Multi-disciplinarity and cross-sectoral analysis
The third principle of the 1976 Framework expresses the need to take a multi-disciplinary approach to land evaluation. The evaluation process requires contributions from the fields of natural science (e.g. geomorphology, soil science, ecology), the technology of land use (e.g. agronomy, forestry, irrigation engineering, animal husbandry), economics (e.g. agricultural economy) and sociology (e.g. rural development, anthropology). There is an increasing need to take into account cross-sectoral processes, in view of the recognition that there are competing sectors and inherent groups that have an impact on the land and land resources. A multi-sectoral approach identifies different sectors such as agriculture, industry, tourism and environmental organizations that may have a vested stake in the land and can influence its value. To reach the goal of sustainable development, an integrated approach to sectoral development is required. Context and environmental concerns The fourth principle of the 1976 Framework stipulates that land evaluation should be made in terms relevant to the physical, economic and social context of the area concerned. The assumptions underlying land evaluation will differ from one region to another. Evaluations should take into account the biophysical, economic, social and political context as well as environmental concerns in the area where land evaluation will take place. Many of the contextual factors have often remained implicit, but the assumptions made should be explicitly stated to avoid misunderstanding, assist in comparisons between different regions, and facilitate re-evaluation when conditions change. Sustainability includes productivity, social equity and environmental aspects The fifth principle of the 1976 Framework highlights the need for land use to be sustainable in terms of increased productivity without resource depletion. For any proposed form of land use, the probable consequences for the environment should be assessed as accurately as possible and such assessments taken into consideration in determining suitability. Sustainability now aspires to improved productivity, social equity and environment. Improved productivity encompasses the need for quality while ensuring sufficient quantity. Inherently linked to the global concern of sustainability and to the need for a holistic approach is the requirement for monitoring the agro-environment. A revised Framework should recognize the importance of monitoring the agro-environment, take into account problems, including both environmental and socio-economic, arising from the competition among land uses and aim at maintaining the multiple functions of the agro-ecosystems. tải về 0.57 Mb.
