Answer:

Generally soil can be classified on two bases. Firstly on the basis of colour

i.e-Black soil, Red soil, yellow soil, Brown soil etc. Secondly on the basis of nature

of the soilie Doumat (Alluvial) soil, Sandy soil, Saline soil, basic soil etc.

Alluvial soil is prominently deposited in north east region of our state, where as

sandy soil is found in Thar Desert of western Rajasthan, Black soil is found

predominantly in south-East Hadouti region. Black loamy and Red-Black soil is

found in Aravali region. Basic soil is prominently found in canal irrigated region.Agriculture

Art of growing crops in soil is known as Agriculture, and the land which is

used for growing crops is known as Agricultural Land. Rajasthan's Economy is

primarily considered as an agricultural Economy because agriculture is major

source of employment and livelihood of the people. Population explosion causes

decrease in size of agricultural land because of equal division of agriculture farms

among the heirs; this

causes the division of farm into many parts as per the number

of brothers in a family.

Agriculture is a primary activity because primary activities include all those

activities which are related to production and consumption of natural resources.

Agriculture includes growing of crops, fruits, vegetables and animal rearing. For

agricultural production favourable climate, topography and fertile soil is required.

Types of Agriculture

Different methods are used for agriculture in different regions of the world.

On the basis of geographical condition, demand of product, labour and

development of technology agriculture can be divided into two major types-

Subsistent Agriculture and Commercial Agriculture.

Agriculture Seasons

Rajasthan has three season of agriculture, Kharif (Rainy season), Rabi

(winter season) and Jayad (summer season). Bajra, Maize, Jawar, Groundnut, Rice

etc. are Kharif Crops. Wheat, Jou, Gram, Mustured etc. Rabi crops and fruits,

vegetables fodder, Baseem, etc. are Jayad crops. Wheat, Jau, Jwar, Bajra, Maize,

and Pulses are the food crops of Rajasthan.

Explanation:

With the expansion in irrigated facilities farmers are concentrating more on

commercial crops. In last two decades there is a decrease in cultivated area of food

crop, however there is an increase in cultivated area of oilseed crops. Because of

commercial reasons presently there is an increase in soya bean cultivation in the

state.

In present scenario division of crops in the above mentioned two categories is

not right because presently farmer produces Wheat, Rice, Sorgham, Millet, Maize,

Cotton, Tobacco, Gram, Oilseeds, Pulses etc. all type of crops. The only difference

is that farmers Keep some portion of the production for their own use and sell

remaining in market, but the whole produce of commercial crops like cotton, sugar

cane, tobacco and oilseeds is meant for sell in the market.

Major crops of Rajasthan

Wheat-It is main food crop of the state. It needs medium temperature during

sowing and intense sunlight during harvesting. Alluvial soil is suitable to it. Wheat

is grown in winter season in Rajasthan. Sri Ganganagar, Hanumangarh, Kota, Bara,

Bundi, Sawai Madhopur, Karauli, Chittorgarh, Udaipur, Bhilwara, Tonk, Pali,

Ajmer, Dungarpur, Banswara etc. are the major wheat producing districts of

Rajasthan. Uttar Pradesh is the largest wheat producing state of India. India is

second largest producer in the world after China.

Millet (Bajra)- Arid climate and sandy soil of western Rajasthan is suitable

for cultivation of Bajra because it can grow in high temperature and less rainfall. It is

a major food crop of Rajasthan and it covers largest cultivated area of the state.

Western Rajasthan, Jaipur, Dausa, Karauli, Bharatpur, Sawai Madhopur etc. are the

major Bajra producing district. Rajasthan is the largest Bajra producing state of

India.

Rice-It is staple food crop of the world, which is grown by the people living

in hot topical and subtropical region. It requires high temperature, high humidity

and rainfall. Clayey alluvial soil and black soil that have capacity to retain water is

best suitable for rice cultivation. India is a second largest producer of rice after

China. Rice is kharif crop of Rajasthan. Hanumangarh, Sri Ganganagar, Banswara,

Dungarpur, Kota, Bundi, Jhalawar, Bara, Udaipur, Chittorgarh etc. are rice

producing districts of Rajasthan.

Maize (Macca) - It is a staple food of Rajasthan especially of Mewar region

where it is fondly consumed during winter season. It suitably grows in Red-Black

soil and requires high temperature and rainfall. Chittorgarh, Bhilwara, Rajsamand,

Banswara, Dungarpur destricts etc. are major producers of Maize.
