- 2. RESOURCE S • Everything available in our environment which can be used to satisfy our needs
- 3. What all in this presentation . Types of Resources- natural and man made Classification of resources in, on the basis of origin, stock, distribution, development Conserving Resources& Sustainable development.
- 5. Classificatio n of Resources OnthebasisofOrigin:BioticandAbiotic On the basis of Exhaustibility: Renewable and Non-Renewable On the basis of Distribution : Localised and Ubiquitous On the basis of Status of Development: Potential, Developed, Stock and Reserves
- 6. On the basic of origin -biotic and abiotic resources
- 9. OWNE R SHIP Individual Resources: These are also owned privately by individuals. Many farmers own land which is allotted to them by government against the payment of revenue. In villages there are people with land ownership but there are many who are landless. Urban people own plots, houses and other property Community Owned Resources: There are resources which are accessible to all the members of the community. Village commons (grazing grounds, burial grounds, village ponds, etc.) public parks, picnic spots National Resources: Technically, all the resources belong to the nation. The country has legal powers to acquire even private property for public good. International Resources: There are international institutions which regulate some resources. The oceanic resources beyond 200 km of the Exclusive Economic Zone belong to open ocean and no individual country can utilise these without the concurrence of international institutions.
- 12. On the basis of their distribution resources can be ubiquitous or localised. • . Resources that are found everywhere like the air we breathe, are ubiquitous. But those which are found only in certain places are localised, like copper and iron ore

- 16. Resourc e Plannin g • Planning is widely accepted strategy for judicious use of resources. WHY DO WE NEED RESOURCE PLANNING? • IMPORTANCE OF RESOURCE PLAINNING- • It has importance in a country like India , which has enormous diversity in the availability of resources. • There are some regions which can be considered self sufficient in terms of the availability of resources and there are some regions which have acute shortage of some resources. For example Jharkhand ,Chhattisgarh rich in coal, Rajasthan rich in solar energy. • We have to save for future generation and to avoid wastage of resources. • To reduce regional and personal disparity. • To control global ecological crises- global warming, depletion of ozone layer.
- 17. HOW RESOURCE PLANNING IS DONE IN INDIA. Resource planning is a complex process which involves : (i)identification and inventory of resources across the regions of the country. This involves surveying, mapping and qualitative and quantitative estimation and measurement of the resources. (ii)Evolving a planning structure endowed with appropriate technology, skill and institutional set up for implementing resource development plans . (iii) Matching the resource development plans with overall national development plans.
