Trends in Area, Production and Average Yield of Major Agricultural Crops in Mizoram: An Analytical Study
Author : Dr. Lalfakawmi
Abstract :
The study examines the evolving patterns of cultivated area, crop production, and average yield of key agricultural crops in Mizoram from 2019 to 2024. The analysis highlights significant declines in the cultivated area and production of rice, pulses, oilseeds, and sugarcane, while potato displays a notable increase in yield despite reductions in area. These trends reflect the complex interplay of climatic factors, land use policies, farmer preferences, and technological adoption. The findings advocate for targeted policy measures, sustainable practices, and crop diversification strategies to bolster agricultural productivity and ensure food security in Mizoram.
