    Abstract

    There are about 13 categories of wastelands identi$ed in India, which constitute about 20.17% of total geographical area. The Govt. of India has identi$ed 146 districts in 19 states for micro-planning of degraded lands. Nearly 83% of wastelands are in Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu and UP. This paper analyses the classes of wastelands and di1erent approaches to reclamation of these lands.
