Land and use is clearly constrained by environmental factors such as soil characteristics, climate, topography, vegetation. But it also Lreflects the importance of land as a key and finite resource for most human activities including agriculture, industry, Forestry, energy production, settlement, recreation, and water catchments and storage. The growth of population is greater than the rate of growth of food production. It is usually achieved through proper use of land resources with the application of bio fertilizers, hybrid seeds, double cropping, modern methods of irrigation and manpower. The land use patterns explain from agriculture cropping pattern and changes are analyzed. Two sets of data (2007-08 and 2014-15) were taken in this study. Secondary data’s are collected and analyzed by cropping pattern and land use pattern.

Cropping Pattern, Land use pattern, Land utilization.
