An Economic Study: Scenario of Cropping pattern and Cropping Intensity to Mustard cultivation of Meerut district of Western Uttar Pradesh, India

Cropping pattern is a method to produced different types of crop in a particular area. Crop pattern are directly related to grow different crops. Cropping pattern of crops in agriculture is also practiced with a view to assess avoid risk due to climate condition and biological variability. Cropping pattern of crop provides better economic liability with grown value added agricultural products and also improvement of cropping intensity. Cropping pattern is very necessary measurement to analyze of the cropping intensity. This paper is an attempt to analyze the cropping pattern and cropping intensity of the study area. Cropping pattern is the efficient matter of agricultural production, which highly controlled the entire economic status of the study area. Because some villages were famous for multiple crop production. Different type of crop production in different areas of this block creates cropping intensity. India is the third largest rapeseed-mustard producer in the world, accounting for about 12% of the world’s total rapeseed-mustard. Area, production and productivity of Rapeseed- mustard in India were 5.96 million hectares, 8.32 million tonnes, and 1397 kg/ha respectively.
