Question

give any 2 reason of low productivity in agriculture

Answer 1

Some reasons for this situation are as follows:

1. Population Pressure:

Land is limited, and has almost reached the level where more expansion in cultivated area is not possible. The growth in population creates immense pressure on land.

2. Uncertain Monsoons and Inadequate Irrigation Facilities:

With more than half of the gross cropped area being rainfed, failure or inadequacy of rains causes fluctuation in yields. Even if the maximum irrigation potential is realised, around 86.5 mHa of gross cropped area will remain under rainfed conditions. This underlines the need to develop rainfed agriculture on scientific lines.
