For an alleviation, there is the need to grope for measures with which productivity may be enhanced while working for a stabilization of the environment, such as by stepping up ***land utilization measures*** which include, among others, improvements in the production system for higher agricultural productivity, the introduction of agro-forestry in which agriculture, forestry, stock raising and the like are combined, soil conservation, flood prevention and the assurance of lumber demand for feed and fuels. http://www.env.go.jp/en/wpaper/1990/eae190000000010.html |
