Many land use initiatives in the past have not been well supported by legislation, resulting in severe environmental impacts in the dryland agricultural area of China. Land degradation now adversely affects around 40 percent of the area of China. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | Land Use Law for Sustainable Development, p. 315-333 | Publisher: | Cambridge University Press | Place of Publication: | Cambridge, United Kingdom | ISBN: | 9780521862165 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 180111 Environmental and Natural Resources Law | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 940405 Law Reform | HERDC Category Description: | B1 Chapter in a Scholarly Book | Publisher/associated links: | http://nla.gov.au/anbd.bib-an40086659 http://books.google.com.au/books?id=S36lCyTrsGkC |
