Land resource inventory (LRI) at 1:10,000 scale, using fine resolution remotely
sensed data of IRS P6 LISS IV in Katkamdag block of Hazaribagh district, Jharkhand
representing Chhotanagpur plateau region, India revealed 6 landforms, 11 soil series
mapped in 13 soil mapping units (as phases of soil series) and 5 land management
units (LMUs). Soil quality index (SQI) of LMUs revealed LMU 4 as the best land with
percentage of goodness of SQI of 66.0, whereas, LMU 1 as poor land with the same
as 27.9%. Priority ranking of land management indicators (LMIs) divulged coarse
texture of soils, low soil organic carbon (less than 0.50%), low CEC [less than 5.0 cmol
+ -1 -1 (p ) kg ] and Zn deficiency (less than 0.6 mg kg ) as the major constraints for crop
growth in LMU 1, 2 and 3. Impact assessment of LRI based land use plan (LUP)
unveiled that LRI based alternate cropping systems with best management practices
enhance the average annual net returns and average annual B:C ratio of the farmers by
207% and 94%, respectively over the existing cropping system.
