Hii frnd here is ur answer.
Land-use pattern in India is a dynamic concept. It changes over space and time. Land-use pattern in India is as follows:
1. About 46% area is the net sown area in the country.
2. Forests occupy about 22% of the reporting area.
3. The cultivable waste land accounts for nearly 5% of the area.
4. The fallow land covers about 8% of the total area.
5. Permanent pastures and tree crops cover only 5%.
6. The land not available for cultivation is nearly 14% of the total area.
The factors which determine land use are two fold:
(a) Physical – climate, soil and relief.
(b) Human – culture, tradition and technology.
The main causes for the change in Land-use pattern are –
1. Growing human population
2. Urbanization
3. Industrialisation,
This then varies from state to state also. The above mentioned factors are also responsible for the decrease in land under forest which is around 19% i.e. 14% away from 33% norm of UNO body on environment protection but a slight improvement after 1960-61 i.e. of 22% of the total geographical area.
Hope it help u.

Hi,
=======:
Here is your answer,
=======:
1. India has total geographical area of 3.28 million km square
2. in Punjab and Haryana use of land is over 80% while in Arunachal, Mizoram, Manipur and Island groups is less than 10%.
The main reason for this pattern might be the different levels of fertlilty of soil, soil type, need, etc.
=======
