Land Usage | Vibepedia

Land usage refers to the various ways in which humans utilize the Earth's surface, including forest land, cropland, grassland, wetlands, settlements, and other lands. The management of land has significant impacts on the environment, including urban sprawl, soil erosion, and land degradation. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations plays a critical role in promoting sustainable land use practices. The United States Environmental Protection Agency defines land use as 'the human use of land for economic, social, and cultural purposes'.
