The Central Soil Conservation Board, set up by the Government of India, has prepared a number of plans for soil conservation in different parts of the country.
- These plans are based on the climatic conditions, configuration of land and the social behaviour of people. Even these plans are fragmental in nature.
- Integrated land use planning is the best technique for proper soil conservation.
- Lands should be classified according to their capability; land use maps should be prepared and lands should be put to right uses.
- The final responsibility for achieving the conservation of land will rest on the people who operate on it and receive the benefits.
