Description Agriculture is the main occupation and backbone in developing country like India and is a bottleneck in the economic development of the country. Agriculture development plays an important role in the growth of other sectors of economy. Agriculture development means process through which shift takes place from stage of traditional agriculture to stage of modernized agriculture. It includes higher level of foodgrains, fruits, and vegetables and other farm products, high income and better standard of living. Maharashtra plays a major role in economic development of India. In India 9.29 per cent of the total population which occupied by Maharashtra is currently 11.24 corer people with the literacy rate 82.9 per cent. The production of food grain in 2012-2013 expected to register decrease of 23 per cent with the production of 118.09 lack metric tonnes.
Gadchiroli district was purposively selected for present study because Gadchiroli district has made progress in agricultural development due to increase of irrigation facility through Etiyadoh dam. In analytical techniques tabular analysis and functional analysis such as linear and compound growth rate was used to analyze data.
Among the Gadchiroli districts of the Vidarbha region land under forest during 2000-01 was 53.29 per cent and in 2015-16 increased to 81.10per cent and percentage change during 2015-16 over 2000-01 was 52.18.Under net sown area 11.22 per cent area in 2000-01 while it was 12.24 per cent in 2015-16, it shows that there was increase in area by 9.14 percent. Gadchiroli area under food grains in 2000-01 was 11.73 per cent while in 2015-16 it was 12.24 per cent and the percentage change was 4.34 per cent of which the percentage change of cereals and pulses were 0.75 and -77.74 per cent, respectively. Significant increase in productivity of total cereal, cotton, total foodgrains have been achieved, as it has been recorded rice 1166 kg/ha in 2015-16 as against 955 kg/ha in 2000-01.
Consumption of fertilizer in study period was 64.50 kg/ha in 2000-01 to 67.53 kg/ha in 2015-16. The NPK ratio has changed i.e. 65:27:8 to 68:27:5 during the period 2000-01 to 2015-16, respectively. During period of 2000-01 to 2007-2008 (I) the area under forest in Gadchiroli was 795959 thousand ha, which remain change to 1161750 thousand ha in the 2008-09 to 2015-16 (II) period and 2000-01 to 2015-16 (overall) period it was again 978855 thousand ha.The average area under net sown area in period I was 148346 thousand ha, which is increased to 158750 thousand ha in period II and overall period it was 153548 thousand ha and its variability was 23.81, 17.28, and 20.20 per cent in period I, period II and overall period, respectively.
The total area under foodgrains has been increased in the district. It was 1787.6 thousand ha during the period I and it increased to 1822.5 thousand ha. The area under cultivation during the overall period was 1805.1 thousand ha during the period II.The production of total food grain in the district for the study period I was 1842. 6 thousand tonnes and it was 2012.8 thousand tonnes for the period II and the total food grain production for the overall period was 1927.7 thousand tonnes.As per the 2001 census human population of Gadchiroli was 9.7 lakh which increased to10.73 lakh in 2011 census which was increased by 10.61 per cent as computed to 2001.
The value of R2 was 0.1105 and the F value was 0.3416 in the period 2000-01 to 2015-16.The percent of gross irrigated area to gross sown area are 12986.027, percentage of consumption of fertilizer NPK (m. t.) was -11.093; percentage of net sown area to gross sown area was 352.87.Growth rate of production of Jowar crops in Gadchiroli was negative significant at 1 per cent for II and overall period. Productivity of rice, maize, wheat, total cereal, red gram, gram, total pulses, Sesamum, linseed, oilseed and total foodgrains remained non-significant during overall periods.
