    A Study of the Spatial Distribution of Institutional loan for Agriculture in Irrigated Region of Haryana
    (Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural Univesity, Hisar, 1980) Singh, Vinod Kumar; Pandey, Uma Kant
    Agriculture like any other industry also needs investment capital for the development and to realize higher production. Investment in agriculture assumes more significance in our country where about Fifty per cent o! the national income is derived from agriculture and in which a majority of its population depends for their livelihood As a result it has got priority in the allocation of funds under different Five-Year plans. Despite such Priorities and Investment of large funds from scarce resources, production in the agriculture sector would hardly match the growth in population. In fact the economic development of the country is not only complex but also seems be impossible without agricultural development. With the introduction of modern technology during the mid-sixties farming has become more capital. intensive. The capital investment requirement cannot be met fully by the farmers out of their own savings unless they get some financial assistance from credit Institutions. In fact agricultural credit has become a sine-qua-non tor agricultural development. But the role of agricultural -credit has not been fully appreciated. in the agricultural credit policy. !here seems to be skewed distribution of agricultural credit not only at the state level but also at the regional and district levels.

    Estimation of Demand for Credit on Mechanized Farms of Kurukshetra District (Haryana)
    (Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural Univesity, Hisar, 1980) Tyagi, Ashok Kumar; Pandey, Uma Kant
    The requirement of capital to purchase the production inputs such as seed, feed. fertilizers, plant protection chemicals irrigation water etc. is substantially low under the common production technology as compared to their requirement tor the adoption of improved production technology on farms. Thus, so long as the farmers follow the common production technology with low investment in purchased inputs, the requirement of working capital on these farms would be considerably low. As a result many farmers may not need any credit to meet the Working capital requirement on the farms, and if at all some farmers need borrowed .funds for this purpose the amount may be very small. Farmers requiring substantially small amount of production loans may prefer to borrow even at a higher cost _n.om the private money lenders in order to avoid the lengthy and complex loaning procedures of the credit institutions.
