Agricultural land rental markets in Nagapattinam district, Tamil Nadu
2014
The present paper analyses the land rental markets in Nagapattinam District, Cuddalore district. Traditionally, agricultural leases are divided into two general categories: the cash lease and the crop share lease. Both the methods have their own merits and demerits. The present paper addresses the same. These methods have influence over the yield, input use and management of land. From the study, the rental markets have created self employment, assured food security and social privilege. At the same time, tenants are unhappy with certain factors that affect the intention to lease-in lands. Short term lease have affected effective management of land, decision making and long term investment. Based on the conclusion, the study suggests that the local people can collectively initiate an informal administration for documentation of rental lands. The local institution can solve the problems by educating sustainable agriculture.
