| Resumo: | The agricultural sector is an
important sub- sector of' the primary sector
in Kerala. For the last several decades in
Kerala the area under rice cultivation and
rice production has shown more or less a
consistent fall. Farmers divert their arable
land for cash crops, despite rice being the
staple food in the state and the state almost
fully depends upon its import. The major
factors that cause depletion of the rice
cultivation are related with the socio cultural
and economic changes in the state. The aim
of this paper is to analyze the factors which
are responsible for shrinking of rice field in
Kerala. Basically this study is based on
secondary data. So the main limitation of
this study is that it does not depend on the
primary data |
