(i) Land is most important for farming. Unfortunately, not all the people engaged in farming activities have sufficient land for cultivation.
(ii) There are altogether 450 families in village Palampur, out of which 150 families, most of them dalits, are landless. Of the remaining families who own land, 240 families cultivate small plots of land less than 2 hectares in size.
(iii) Cultivation of such plots doesn't bring adequate income to the farmer family. On the other hand, more than half area of the village is covered by plots that are quite large in size.
(iv) The remaining 60 families of medium and large farmers cultivate more than 2 hectares of land. A few of the large farmers have land extending over 10 hectares or even more.
Thus, we can say that the distribution of cultivated land is quite unequal in Palampur.
