Abstract

Odisha has been known for its rich agricultural history since time immemorable. As far as cultivating in the traditional manner is concerned Orissa still yields high as compared to the rest of India. But, since the adoption of technology and modern irrigation and cultivation methods have slowly and gradually been accepted by most states in the country, the productivity has shown a quick rise over the recent years. Farmers in Odisha are comparatively less educated and financially weak. Hence, they are not able to adapt to the recent better practices in farming. Moreover, Odisha is regularly hit by natural calamities like floods, cyclones and famines, which make it difficult for the farmers to put in constant efforts in the farm land. Despite the Government announcing many welfare schemes for farmers in Odisha from time to time, the facilities are yet far from reaching the farmers in remote farming areas. Even though the said factors need to be still addressed a statistical interpretation and analysis becomes a must to find out the status of Farming in Odisha. This study aims at comparing the farming output of Odisha vis-a-vis other states of the country.
