Abstract

The assessment in dynamic of cropping pattern in several regions is vital part for a much-improved insight intothe farming development method. The present study was commenced to inspect the dynamicsof cropping pattern in Kariapatti block of the virudhunagar district of Tamil Nadu. The data analyzed with the help of Markov chain by year wise and for all years with analyzed as transitional probability matrix for dynamic changes. The main findings from the study exposed that any type of crops did not hold its area. But, the acreage of the crops was simultaneously changing from one set of crops to another set throughout the season. The cereals (cholam) area was observed to be more stable and the less area observed in gingelly and sunflower crops. Indicated that the cropping pattern of the region moves towards diversification from cholam to cotton followed by groundnut, sugarcane, paddy and maize, gingelly and green gram and sunflower in Kariapatti block. The reducing trend has been observed in the uncultivable land. This specifies that the area for cultivation has increased in Kariapatti. There is a greater possibility for deciding within the choice of crops to place the agriculture on the base of property growth that has to be supposed about in analysis and extension programmes.
