What do most textbooks on land use planning begin by?
It is obvious that any textbook on land use planning begins by posing the question, "What is land use planning about?" It is not a difficult problem to give a simple answer to this basic question.
It is essentially a study of the methods in which land use planners apply their knowledge, skills and efforts to the gifts of nature in order to satisfy their needs and wants.
Effective land use planning is impossible without land information. Such information includes land resource capacity, land tenure, land ownership and land use.
Land helps people to survive. That's why lands are very important resources for men.
Some people have the abilities to sustain life without outside assistance. But a large percentage of the human race of the third world still lives in very small self-sufficient peasant communities.
Why do people apply their knowledge and skills?
It is essentially a study of the methods in which land use planners apply their knowledge, skills and efforts to the gifts of nature in order to satisfy their needs and wants.
On the basis of long-term investigations some principles of land use planning are presented.
Land use planning is a dialogue, creating the prerequisites for the successful negotiation and co-operation among stakeholders
On the basis of sound decisions a sustainable form of land use is proposed "whereby the aims and interests of other participating group are taken into account to the greatest possible extent".
Rural societies or groups can often provide complex indigenous knowledge of the environment.
What is effective land use planning impossible without?
Effective land use planning is impossible without land information. Such information includes land resource capacity, land tenure, land ownership and land use.
Traditional rural societies have their own way of approaching problems and settling conflicts concerning land use.
In the process of land use planning, such mechanisms have to be recognized, understood and taken into account.
Land use planning requires transparency.
It increases the motivation of the people for creating sustainable results.
Are lands very important resources for men?
Land helps people to survive. That's why lands are very important resources for men.
An open exchange of information leads to discussions about objectives among the key figures and promotes the willingness to reach a consensus.
In addition, it strengthens the trust of the population in land use planning activities.
The differentiation of stakeholders and the gender approach are core principles in land use planning.
A prerequisite for realistic land use planning is the detailed analysis of the various interest groups.
How does a large percentage of the human race still live?
Some people have the abilities to sustain life without outside assistance. But a large percentage of the human race of the third world still lives in very small self-sufficient peasant communities.
The aim is to find out the various interests of the participants in order to create a basis for the negotiation and decision-making process.
Different interests are arising from the economic and social character of their role and scope of duties.
Therefore, the role of gender is an important criterion when differentiating stakeholders.
Land use planning is implementation-oriented.
What does land information include?
Such information includes land resource capacity, land tenure, land ownership and land use.
Land use planning has to consider how the negotiated decisions are to be implemented.
Land use planning does not end with the land use plan.
Chances of success for any business are greatly increased when attention is first directed to a comprehensive plan.
If financial assistance is necessary from bankers, trade creditors, or investors, their first request will be to see the total plan.
Do we observe a high level of living in large cities?
The inhabitants of cities are totally incapable of providing for themselves, directly, the means of survival. Here we can observe the opposite situation – a high level of living together with an extreme economic dependence.
The most important thing in planning even a small farm is that all phases of its operations must be considered.
The more we know about the circumstances around us, the better we can prepare the farm to protect itself against different unexpectedness.
Using the desired income approach one should take into consideration important steps in planning.
To complete a projected income statement the land use planner should determine what profit he wants from this farm, recognizing the time he will give and the investment he will have.
Is it important to have economic independence?
Some people have the abilities to sustain life without outside assistance. But a large percentage of the human race of the third world still lives in very small self-sufficient peasant communities. These people experience great poverty, but they provide on an individual basis, for their own survival. They have a degree of economic independence.
With the profit figure clearly in mind, it is possible, using statistics that are abundantly available, to calculate the production volume that is necessary to produce that particular profit.
It is also necessary to survey and test the market. The land use planner should involve close study of the production needs of the farm and make proper decisions on how they are to be met.
Here he decides whether to rent or buy the farm, whether to buy delivery trucks and on what terms.
The land use planner is to study the location and the particular site chosen for specific characteristics.

What is the purpose of land use planning?
The purpose is to select and adopt land use options which are the most beneficial to land users without degrading the resources or the environment, together with the selection of measures most likely to encourage such land uses.
In the broadest meaning of the term, land use planning deals with planning for all types of land use (rural, urban, industrial, recreational, etc.).
Land use planning involves many aspects of planning such as designing planning options, evaluation of feasibility (economic, environmental, social impact assessment), providing assistance to decision maker, implementation and monitoring of plans.
Rural land use planning is concerned with all (economic) activities in rural areas, such as agriculture, pastoralism, forestry, wildlife conservation and tourism.
Besides evaluation of the potential of different activities, rural land use planning assists in resolving conflicts of interests between groups of land users.
What does land use planning deal with?
In the broadest meaning of the term, land use planning deals with planning for all types of land use (rural, urban, industrial, recreational, etc.).
Some of the key aspects of agricultural land use planning are physical and socio-economic ones.
Physical aspects involve land evaluation (mapping, analysis, suitability matching), identification of opportunities for change (improve existing land use system, suggest new land use systems), natural resources management (sustainable land use systems).
The objectives of socio-economic aspects include identification of target groups, weighting options and connection with other administration/planning.
Land is a limited resource and the misuse of land can lead to such problem as non-sustainable land use: processes of overexploitation (overgrazing, deforestation, erosion hazard).

What are soil horizons and how are they formed?
Soil horizons are layers that develop in a body of soil. They are formed as a result of the method and rate of soil formation.
The three major horizons found in most soils are the A horizon (topsoil), the B horizon, and the C horizon (subsoil). The A horizon is the uppermost layer and is highly developed. The B horizon is the layer below the A horizon and may resemble or differ from the surrounding horizons. The C horizon is the lowest layer and is exposed to little weathering.
Pedologists describe soils by the characteristics of the soil horizons, including color, texture, structure, and chemical conditions.
> The color of a soil provides information about the amounts of air, water, organic matter, and certain elements present in the soil. For example, a red color may indicate the presence of iron compounds.
The texture of a soil depends on the size of its mineral particles. Sands have the largest particles, while clays are microscopic. The texture of a soil affects how thoroughly water drains from it, with sands promoting better drainage than clays.
