A Study of Agricultural Productivity and Agricultural intensity in kaimur district, bihar

Agricultural development and agricultural productivity have been increased after the introduction of green revolution. In the present paper an attempt has been made to analyse the agricultural productivity and agricultural intensity in Kaimur district of Bihar for two time periods that is 2001 and 2011. Productivity and intensity has increased tremendously due to the use of modern equipments, application of high yielding varieties (HYV) of seeds, chemical fertilizers, pesticides etc. From the foregoing results it is clear that cropping intensity has increased with the use of modern agricultural inputs. There is a wide regional disparity exists in productivity and intensity for both time periods. Blocks which have good irrigation facility, use HYV seeds in agriculture have high cropping intensity and productivity. On the other blocks having less.
