Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 52

Abstract

Investigation was carried out during the year 2013-14. In all 48 irrigated farms were randomly selected from sixteen villages of two tehsils in Nanded district of Maharashtra. Data were related to cropping pattern and livestock pattern as well as socio-economic determinants. The results revealed that livestock showed highly significant on irrigated farm with regression coefficient of 9837.01. It means that addition of one livestock could cause to increase Rs 9837.01 of gross income on irrigated farm. In next the order, regression coefficient of land holding was 7086.63. It means that addition of one hectare of land holding, would lead to increase Rs 7086.63 on irrigated farm. On the contrary, distance of farm from village showed regression coefficient of-9964.52, which was negatively significant. If addition of one kilometer distance to existence distance, it could adversely affect gross income of Rs 9964.52 on irrigated farm.
