The paper has attempted to expand the evaluation criteria of farming systems beyond profitability. The
proposed methodology has been exemplified with a study conducted in a village in Pudur mandal of
Rangareddy district of Telangana. The data on the inputs and outputs of a system and their utilization
were collected through a well-structured pre-tested schedule from 20 sample farmers, in such a way that
it captured the material flows into and out of the components of the given farming system. The market
dependency ratio has been computed for different farming systems. A varying structure of household
income has been noticed for different farming systems. The highest household income has been observed
in case of the system containing rainfed and irrigated crops along with livestock rearing. The inputoutput ratio has been found highest in the farming system containing rainfed and irrigated cropping. The
market dependency ratio for inputs has been found to be lowest (46%) for the system containing rainfed
and irrigated cropping along with livestock and the highest for the system with rainfed and irrigated
cropping only. The relationship between market dependency ratio and farm size, family size and number
of components in a farming system has also been analysed. The farming systems that can minimize the
need for external inputs have a key role in sustaining agricultural systems in the rainfed agriculture. Such
an expanded analysis of farming systems will be useful in planning for technology generation and transfer
in the Indian agriculture
