Impact Assessment of irrigation on Land use in Osmanabad District

Abstract: The effect of irrigation on land use is best understood when the two aspects are Net crop area and double crop area. Net arable land directly involves appropriating other components of land use, sometimes through extended irrigation facilities. Increasing cropping intensity, on the other hand, is only possible through intensive agriculture. An important factor in the development of rural and urban settlements is the availability of water. Proper use of available agricultural resources is essential for balanced economic growth. It is far behind the agro economy and the significant migration of people looking for work. The main objective of this paper is to study the impact assessment of irrigation on land use in Osmanabad district.
