i). Small holdings: Land holdings in India are of very small size. Due to the increasing population the per, hectare availability of land is very low. The landholding is also scattered.
ii). Shortage of inputs: Commercial and extensive agriculture needs lots of inputs, but there is a shortage of inputs like irrigation, seeds, fertilizers and machinery.
iii). Poor farmers: Most of the Indian farmers are very poor. They do not have enough money to purchase various kinds of inputs.
iv). Large families: Most of the farmers have large families, so only a small quantity of output is left to sell in the market
