The agricultural production of any region is composed in the gross by nature of topography, number of soils and climatic parameters as well as socio-economic factors. The present paper is an attempt to analyze the changing scenario of cropping intensity and crop combination in Nadia district, West Bengal and also to explore the intensity of crop and crop combination with different natural and socio-economic parameters for sustainable yield. Based on the block wise secondary data obtained from the Statistical Abstract of Nadia, I prepared the cropping intensity mapping of the study area by taking the value gross cropped area and net cropped area and also I prepared the crop combination mapping of the study area. The results show that the cropping intensity in 1990-91 in Nadia District was 230.34% that rose to 243.07% in 2000-01 and 249% in 2010-11. Weaver’s method of crop combination reveals that five crop combinations are dominant in the study area. Only Nabadwip block experienced two crop combinations. It is also observed that number of crops has been increased during the study period which creates very high cropping intensity zone. However, a planned crop pattern is suggested considering demographic change of the region.
