Abstract:
Cropping pattern means the share of different crops in farmer 's total cultivated area in an agricultural year. It is a significant indicator of farmer 's decision-making ability which shows his plan of cropping over space and time in response to the change in physical and socio-economic factors. Cropping pattern refers to the proportionate area under different crops during a agricultural year. It can also be mentioned as the series of crops at a point of time. It must ensure the greatest efficiency of man, fertilizers, irrigation and other inputs. A successful cropping pattern implies the most efficient use of arable land, consequent upon application of water resources, bio-chemical inputs and the like. In addition, it must offer the cultivators the possibility to maximize agricultural productivity per unit area per unit of time. But it has been seen over the years that the cropping pattern has witnessed a great change especially in the parts of Tamil Nadu. Farmers, who have been facing uncertainty in the production of crops year after year, are changing their cropping pattern to save themselves. There is a huge impact of several factors for the cause which have been discussed in this paper.
Keywords: Cropping Pattern, Agriculture, Farmer, Fertilizers, Pesticides, Machienary.
