The IGU Symposium on Land Use in Developing Countries, Aligarh, was attended by 69 delegates from 19 different countries of the world. Lively discussions in the sessions and relaxed chatting at the hotel were fruitful and have paved the way for further development of land use study. Land use and agricultural geography are among major items of Indian geographers. Aligarh Muslim University, the host university of the Symposium, is the first Indian university to have established the department of geography and is well known by The Geogrpaher. It may be safely said that the Department today is the centre of land use study in India. Some characteristics of land use and land use studies in India were revealed at the Symposium. It was surprising that only a little permanent pasture and grazing land is left and that vast area are devoted to double and triple cropping while multiple use of the same plot is still practised to minimize the loss and damage of crops which may be caused by natural disasters. Although cows are an essential feature of Indian way of life, they are not so economically important and thus the crop and animal combination has scarecely been adopted as land utilization category. It was another discovery that Indian geographers do not generally assess the social and cultural factors, which are deeply rooted into their tradition, in the study of land utilization. Most valuable help was given by Professor M. Shafi & Dr. M. Anas and other staff members to whom the writer's very warm thanks are expressed here. The Aligarh Muslim University extended a warm hospitality to the delegates, for which his deep gratitude is due. It would be desirable for delegates to keep a close academic contact on a basis of common feeling at Aligarh.
