Detailed Solution

The given statement is true. The land is a natural resource on which we live, perform our economic activities, and use it differently. Thus it makes it a natural resource of utmost value to all. The land sustains the world’s impending population of humans and other terrestrial fauna. Land resources need to be efficiently used because the land has a carrying capacity that sustains the maximum number of living beings. If the population pressure exceeds the land's carrying capacity, this leads to land degradation. The land supports biodiversity, vegetation, wildlife, human life, economic activities, transport, and communication systems. The only disadvantage of land is that it is an asset of a finite magnitude and cannot be increased in a short time. Hence it is highly important to use the available land for various purposes with sustainable planning.
