| Article Name : | | | COMPARISONS OF LAND AND LABOUR PRODUCTIVITY IN KARNATAKA | | Author Name : | | | Hanumanthappa. K. M. | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-4798 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | The harvesting period of Kharif crops starts at the end of monsoon, i.e., September to October (may continue till November in some cases), and the Rabi crops are generally harvested from March to April (may continue till May in some cases). There are two crops which occupy the field almost the whole year. These are Sugarcane and Pigeon-Pea. Sugarcane is sown after considerable preparation of the land in the month of April or May and harvesting begins in January. Pigeon -Pea is sown in the month of July and is harvested in February or March. Since this study is based on selected food crops, therefore, it would be worthwhile to examine their relative position with respect to area, production and yield. The crops selected are: Rice, Ragi, Jowar, Bajra, Maize, Wheat, Other Cereals, Gram, Tur, Other Pulses, Groundnut, Sugarcane and Cotton. | | Keywords : | | |
