Question

hypothesis for pest

Answer 1

It is difficult to make categorical statements on the development
which is a multi faceted phenomenon; caused in the command areas, due
to irrigation, however voluminous may be the data. An evaluation
assessment on the basis of some primary and secondary information
available for a short, yet acceptable, period will indicate the positive
changes in the direction, and degree and quality of changes is discernible.
The hypothesis taken up in this study is whether irrigation improves the
standard of living of the rural masses and in turn helps the rural
development. This study has the main objective of studying the impact of
irrigation on rural development, through the development of agriculture
(Vasudeva Rao, D. 1982). The assumed chain reaction is that irrigation
leads to intensive cultivation which results in better crop pattern
reflecting in higher productivity causing more employment resulting in
more per capita income and more saving. The probable increase in
expenditure is expected to raise the intake of quality food. Expenditure on
non food items like education, health care would also go up. Thus the
study aims at quantifying and linking up interwoven characteristics of
development, with irrigation as the (center) starting point for around
development of the study (rural) area.
