Dr. Ajitesh Singh Chandel
Abstract :
The present paper deals with a study of land use and cropping intensity in Bilaspur district of Himachal Pradesh. An attempt has been made to scientifically and methodically classify the present land use in the areas of study. The utilization of land divided in four categories, viz. land not available for cultivation, uncultivated land, cultivated land and forest. Maximum area covers uncultivated land 43.30% and forest land covers very low (11.51%) of the total area. Cropping intensity index displays variation between 142 in Bandla Nyayapanchayat to 208 in Merikathla Nyayapanchayat. The highest intensity was noticed in marginal farmers, with a few exceptions, followed by the small and semi– medium size cultivators
