| dc.description.abstract | The study of land fragmentation and land use pattern is important for understanding the landscape change in the particular area in a certain time as well as to assist in making better policy of land use and landholding subdivisions. The present workis an attempt to describe the land fragmentation and land use pattern during the different years such as from2004 to 2015 for land fragmentation and from, 1965 to 2015 for land use in Machchegaun VDC of Kathmandu district. It analyses the fragmentation trend and change in land use patterns after fragmentation of the parcels. The average size of the landholding parcel remains at 211.45m2. It shows that when the maximum number of land fragmentation of the parcels occursthan, there is the leastpossibility to fragment it again. Analysis of the land use patterns is found being influenced by demographic, socio-economic and geo-physical conditions of the study area. Agriculture land is largely affected by these factors. Lack of implementation of the existing land use policy is major hindrance to the sustainable land development. | en_US |
