land-use conflicts

Land-use conflicts arise when different stakeholders have competing interests over how a specific area of land should be used. For example, farmers may want to use land for agriculture, while developers want to build housing or commercial properties. These conflicts can lead to disputes over resource allocation, environmental impact, and community needs. Effective resolution requires balancing economic, social, and environmental considerations, often involving negotiations among governments, businesses, and community groups to find a sustainable solution that meets diverse needs while preserving the land's integrity.
