Answer:

Small and marginal farmers with less than two hectares of land account for 86.2% of all farmers in India, but own just 47.3% of the crop area, according to provisional numbers from the 10th agriculture census 2015-16 released on Monday.

In comparison, semi-medium and medium land holding farmers owning between 2-10 hectares of land account for 13.2% of all farmers, but own 43.6% of crop area, the survey showed.

Overall, the survey showed that while Indian farms became more fragmented between 2010-11 and 2015-16, holdings continue to be inequitably distributed.

Marginal and Small farmers

Explanation:

The farmers are basically classified on the basis of land that they are provided for cultivation purposes. They are classified as-

  • Marginal farmers- These are the farmers who receive less than 1 hectare of land for cultivation
  • Small farmers- These farmers receive land between 1 and 2 hectares, for the use of cultivation
  • Medium farmer- These farmers get 2 to 4 hectares of land for cultivation
  • Big farmers- These farmers receive more than 4 hectares of land

This classification of farmers based on the size of land provided to them is not always uniform.

Thus, those farmers having land less than 2 hectares are considered as marginal farmers or small farmers.
