Description :
The research area bamti/Bandhar/Surma is located on the western slope of the Likhu Khola Valley. With its altitudes ranging from 1450 to 3400 m a.s.l., this region offers all the altitudinally dependent cultivation systems and crop rotations of the southern declivity of the Easten Hymalayas from paddy rice cultivation in the valleys to various maize-millet combinations, field-pasture shifting cultivation land and grazing land at the subalpine level. The A. studies the influence of human impact on the High Mountain Region system.
