Title

IMPACT OF IRRIGATION ON CROPPING INTENSITY IN HUGLI DISTRICT OF WEST BENGAL, INDIA

Abstract

Irrigation is essentiality the artificial application of water to overcome deficiencies in rainfall for growing crops (Cantor, L.M 1967).Growth of population of consequent need for larger agricultural production, the requirement of irrigation has increased a great deal (Tyagi ,B.P,2000). Nearly 70% of the country’s gross cropped area depends exclusively on rainfall, which is unevenly distributed both in respect of time and space (Mamoria, C.B, 1999). The district Hugli retains its basic rural characteristics with over 70% of its total population depending on Agriculture and its position as one of the major producers of cereals in the state. The District has well developed irrigation infrastructure with a higher cropping intensity of about 241%. Cropping intensity plays an important role in the agricultural development of any region. Higher cropping intensity shows intensive use of land for agricultural purpose. This paper attempts to find out the spatial pattern of change in irrigation intensity, and also the relation between irrigation intensity and cropping intensity in Hugli District at C.D. Block level for the years of 2004-05 and 2018-19. Karl Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient method has been adopted to measure the relationship between irrigation intensity and cropping intensity. These analyses provide a clear areal differentiation in case of crop grown and also give avenue to future planners to establish more economically sustained agricultural system.

Key Words

Irrigation Intensity, Cropping Intensity, Net Cropped Area, Gross Cropped Area, Areal differentiation.
