Answer 1

Farmers can increase the productivity of their land by the following methods:

Multiple cropping: It refers to the growing of more than one crop on a same piece of land in a year. This results in increased production.

Modern farming methods: Thoughtful use of modern methods of farming such as using HYV seeds, chemical fertilisers and spraying pesticides and insecticides lead to increased production.

Modern methods of irrigation: To avoid the dependency on rainfall, various methods of irrigation should be adopted by farmers. These may include installation of tube wells for irrigating fields. Further, irrigation by canals and small check dams may result in increased production.
