Main Article Content
Abstract
Land degradation is a critical global issue affecting food security, biodiversity, and ecosystem stability. This article explores innovative technologies used in the restoration of degraded lands, including bioengineering methods, precision agriculture, remote sensing, and soil rehabilitation techniques. The integration of digital tools with sustainable land management practices enables more efficient monitoring, planning, and recovery of ecosystems. Special attention is given to case studies demonstrating successful restoration projects through the use of eco-friendly and cost-effective technologies.
