Keywords:
input-output, economic crops, monocultureAbstract
This study was aimed to clarify diversification of crops and cropping patterns, and to examine economic perspectives of diversification in two different ecological areas. Agriculture sector also plays a considerable role in the economy of Haryana and predominantly it is an agriculture economy. Haryana is one of the states in which green revolution has been experienced and in food production it has a long way. Earlier, the main focus in agriculture sector was to increase food production and to provide better livelihood to farmers but now the shift has been gradually moving towards making agriculture sector a technologically driven dynamic profession. This shows the statistical Analysis on for input-output relationship in case of paddy. In this, total 08 factors related to input relation have been studied. For this, average mean cost of paddy is Rs. 26468. The average mean cost of tomato is Rs. 76281.The average mean cost of tomato is Rs. 124492. Hence, Crop diversification is a practice that reduces monoculture and encourages farmers to produce multiple economic crops.
