About the Book

The Nalgonda District in Andhra Pradesh, India, has its own diversity of terrain, soils and climate expressions apart from the ingredients of its biodiversity and a part of it near Nagarjunasagar Dam falls under the realms of "Project tiger" programme. Anthropognic factors galore, the district has been exposed to vagaries of temperature and rain fall, scarcity of water sources, influx of cement factories and cross-country laying of new highways and railways. The first part of the book includes introduction, previous work, topography and general features, general vegetation types, floristic analysis etc.
