INTRODUCTION : 

 “Resources are generally considered as gifts of nature”. Resources are actually a function of human activities. They transform material available in our environment into resources and use them.
Plants, animals, land, water and minerals are termed as natural resources.
By utilizing natural resources, humans created their own world of living. They created building, roads, railways, town, machines, industries etc.

Important Terms  
    Individual Resources : The resources owned privately by individuals.
    National Resources : The resources that belong to the nation. 
    International Resources : The resources that do not belong to any individual country. 
    Resources Planning : The widely accepted strategy for cautious use of resources is known as resource planning. 
    Gross Cropped Area : Area sown more than once in an agricultural year plus net sown  area is known as gross cropped area. 
   Soil Erosion  : The removal of top fertile soil cover due to various reasons like wind, glacier and water is called soil erosion. 
   Gullies : The running water cuts through the clayey soils and makes deep channels  known as gullies. 
   Bad Land or Ravines : Due to the formation of gullies the land becomes unfit for cultivation and is known as bad land or ravines.  
   Sheet Erosion : When the top soil is washed away due to heavy flow of water down  the slopes it is known as sheet erosion. 
   Wind Erosion : When the top fertile soil blows off due to wind it is known as wind  erosion. 
   Shelter Belts : Planting lines of trees to create shelter breaks up the force of the wind. Rows of such trees are called shelter belts.

concept of resources :    
(i) Everything available in our environment which can be used to satisfy our needs, provided, it is technologically accessible, economically feasible and       culturally acceptable can be termed as ‘Resource’.
                                          
(ii) The process of transformation of things available in our environment involves an inter-dependent relationship between nature, technology and                  institution.
(iii) Human beings interact with nature through technology and create institutions to accelerate their economic development. 

Illustration 1 :     What is a resource?
Solution :         Everything available in environment which is technologically accessible, economically feasible and culturally acceptable.

Illustration 2 :     How do human beings interact with to speed up their economic development?
Solution :         Human beings interact with nature through technology.
