Abstract

Land degradation due to intensive and extensive cultivation and over use of chemical inputs has become a cause of concern. But land use pattern is observed to have a strong co-relation with land tenurial practices. Present study attempts to assess this relationship in the context of the agriculture-dependent state of Orissa. It has measured land use intensity, cropping intensity and input intensity to examine land use pattern of the farmers under different categories of land tenancy. Then it has assessed empirical significance of the same under varied socio-economic backdrop.
