| dc.description | Georgia is located between Eastern Europe and Western Asia, in the Caucasus region. It is a small mountainous country mostly covered by forests and grasslands. Due to the climate and topography, soils are vulnerable to water and wind soil erosion. Desertification in Georgia is accelerated by unsustainable land use, causing widespread severe erosion of arable lands, loss of tree covered areas and decreased productivity of pasturelands. Most of the rural population depend on livestock rearing for their livelihoods and overgrazing is a major driver of pasturelands degradation. Protection and sustainable management of land resources is a crucial objective of the country which has set its national LDN targets. | |
