Management Sustainment Plan: Terrestrial Resource Challenge By: Your Name Here

A Brief Description of the Terrestrial Resource Issue Increase of the world's population pushed migration of small farmers from the rural to the urban areas. Urbanization and rural development. Soil erosion.

Management and Sustainment Plan Research on facts and significance of agricultural lands and the impacts of progressive loss of the areas. A regular presentation has to be scheduled with the community participation. Devise and implement a program to address soil erosion such as improvement of farming practices and tree planting with community participation. Collaborate with government to devise a plan to provide attractive incentives to farmers and improve agricultural revenues and provide adequate and economically viable options of more profitable occupations in the rural area.

Challenges of Management and Sustainment Plan Loss of agricultural land to urban development. Selling agricultural land became more profitable than farming. Depreciating revenue from agricultural lands. Farming has become less profitable. Growing migration of people from rural area to urban areas. Social changes made city life more attractive.

Challenges of Management and Sustainment Plan In coordination with government, the following strategies needs to be implemented: Strengthen land use policies that encourage farmland preservation. Discourage rural development within the Agricultural Wedge. Limit non-agricultural uses of farm land areas. Strengthen the function of rural centers as the focus of activity for the countryside around. Continue by all means the agriculture as the preferred use in the Agricultural Wedge.
