What is land productivity
  • 2 answers

Preeti Dabral 3 years, 4 months ago

Land productivity indicates the land's capacity to support and sustain life and is beneficial for ascertaining land degradation

EXPLANATION:

Land productivity is dependent on numerous factors such as its natural qualities, that is if the land is leveled and flat, it will be more productive than an undulant land; irrigation means also impact the land productivity.

Lands depending on canals, tanks, tube wells, and so on are more productive than lands which depend on rainfall; lands located near the marketplace is more productive than lands situated in distant areas, since lands situated near the market needs less money and time to transport the produce to the market; land productivity also depends on its proper utilization; if enhancements such as hedging, irrigation channels, consolidation of land holdings, and so on are done on lands, its productivity rises; if enhanced methods of cultivation such as fertilizers, mechanized plows, quality seeds, and so are used land productivity increases; the efficiency of labor is another determining factor for land productivity.

If labor is effectual in sowing seeds, cutting crops, spraying pesticides, watering plants, and so on at the correct time, land productivity increases; agricultural policies of the govt. also impacts the land productivity. If govt. passes laws for consolidating holdings, passing land ownership to cultivators, regulating land rents, abolishing intermediaries, and so on land productivity increases. Likewise, land productivity increases if the govt. backs and supports research in agriculture and offers credit facilities to agriculturists.
