This can be then traced along global supply chains to the final consumers through international biomass trade models, such as the Food and Agriculture Biomass InputOutput (FABIO) Model. Tracing product consumption back to the exact geographic location of production and the local environmental impact is crucial for informed decisionmaking.

comparatively lower than iron ore, as limestone is directly used for cement production. The extent of land degraded during the period between 1988 and 2001 is estimated at hectares ( percent of total area of Gulburga district. In Chitradurga, 90 percent of mining is of iron ore and the balance is lime stone (9 percent) and Manganese (1
