About this ebook

Grasslands of India sheds light on India's often-overlooked grassland ecosystems, emphasizing their crucial role in biodiversity, carbon sequestration, and supporting rural livelihoods. These ecosystems, ranging from semi-arid regions to the Himalayas, are vital for various wildlife species, and play a significant role in water conservation and soil health. The book uniquely addresses the ecological importance of these areas while integrating historical land use patterns and traditional ecological knowledge.

This exploration of Indian grasslands details the threats they face, including habitat loss, overgrazing, invasive species, and climate change. It examines the socio-economic dimensions of grassland management, considering the livelihoods of pastoralist communities and the impact of government policies.

By presenting a synthesis of scientific literature, field research, and case studies, Grasslands of India offers practical strategies for conservation, community-based approaches, and ecological restoration. The book progresses from defining grasslands and their types, to analyzing threats and socio-economic factors, culminating in conservation strategies.
