Understanding land use/cover changes is one of the key issues in addressing environmental sustainability.

Further, random sampling techniques were used to interview communities on the knowledge and impacts of land use changes. The findings show expansion in agricultural land and barren lands by 72.5% and 51.8%, respectively.
