    Question

    Calculate the cropping intensity of

    rice-wheat-ragi-fallow rotation if farm area is 2 ha.
    A 100% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 150% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 200% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 250% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The duration of rice-wheat-ragi-fallow is 2 year and farm is 1 ha. So, net cultivated area = Farm area * duration of rotation     = 2 * 2 = 4 ha  Area under rice = 2 ha  Wheat = 2ha  Ragi = 2 ha   So total cropped area = 2+2+2 = 6 ha  Cropping intensity = total cropped area/net cultivated area * 100 = 6/4 * 100 = 150%
