Land use is the function or functions that a man applies to the land available to him. The interaction between geographical factors and man have resulted in land use. In rural areas, primary activities like agriculture, fishing, and mining are predominant. Hence, a large amount of land is used for such activities. In rural areas, the land use under agriculture can be further categorized into arable land, fallow land, grassland or pastureland etc. The population density of rural areas is low compared to urban areas. In urban areas, with growing migration from rural areas, the number of urban settlements are growing at an exponential rate. The land in urban areas is used for commercial purposes, residential use, public utility provision, recreational land use in the form of parks and malls etc.
