LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

9. Since the Rio Summit in 1992, the corporate response to
environmental issues has consistently extended beyond
reactive in the form of complying with increasingly stringent
environmental regulations to proactive initiatives by some
world class companies (Sarkis, 2006).
Current research indicates that the business and financial
performance of companies may depend directly on socially
and environmentally responsible business practices.
Thus, companies are under increasing competitive and other
pressures to continuously search for new ideas and methods
allowing them to achieve and/or maintain environmental
sustainability.
Greening the supply chain is one such innovative idea that is
fast gaining attention in the industry.
10. DEVELOPMENT OF GREEN
SUPPLY CHAIN
Organizations have responded to these challenge by implementing a
number of programs (Humphreys et al. 2006).
First, introduction of end-of-pipe initiatives aimed at reducing
emissions, waste and energy consumption (Hunt and Auster 1990).
Second, Introduction of clean technologies along with programs for
reducing the environmental impact of key steps in the production
process (Welford and Gouldson 1993).
At the beginning of the 1990s, enterprises changed their operating
procedures and introduced eco-auditing frameworks for modifying
products and services (Franke 1995).
Organizations are facing a fourth phase in which environmentally
conscious firms, mainly large companies, are developing
environmental programs aimed at organizing their supply chains
(Gupta 1995; Sarkis 2003).

Introduction of Green supply chain
12. • Green supply chain management (GSCM) has become a focus
of research over the last decade.
• The research in green supply chain management addresses a
variety of issues ranging from organizational research and
practice in green supply chain management to prescriptive
models for evaluation of green supply chain management
practices and technology. Yet, the corporate and environmental
manufacturing issues in developing countries have not been as
well investigated (Zhu and Sarkis, 2006).
13. DEFINITION OF GREEN SUPPLY
CHAIN MANAGEMENT
According to Handfield and Nicholas (2005), supply chain
encompasses all activities associated with the flow and
transformation of goods from raw material stage
(extraction), through to the end user, as well as the
associated information flows. Material and information flow
both up and down the supply chain.
Srivastava, (2007) define GSCM as “integrating
environmental thinking into supply-chain management,
including product design, material sourcing and selection,
manufacturing processes, delivery of the final product to
the consumers as well as end-of-life management of the
product after its useful life.”

64. CONCLUSION
Through this research green drivers, barriers, green supply chain practices and firm
performance measures are identified and their interaction is examined.
Since most of the small and medium size firms are reactive in their approach
towards greening of their supply chain except for the large firms who have resources
to take proactive green measures.
Understanding the influence of these drivers on green supply chain practices will be
promoted through out the organisation and will help in the development of more
environment friendly practices in other functions.
The identified green drivers are applicable to all types of organizations, irrespective
of the size, sector or ownership. Following of these factors will make the green
supply chain implementation process faster, smoother, effective and sustainable in
organizations by reducing the number of impediments expected or experienced by
them
