| dc.description.abstract | The present study related to the input use pattern, production pattern, capital formation and socio-economic characteristics of owner and leased-in farmers under paddy cultivation in Tungabhadra Project Area. Data collected was analysed and interpreted using tabular presentation, Fisher’s t-test and Cobb-Douglas production function. Likert scaling technique was also used to study the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of leased-in land. The results revealed that there was no significant difference in input use, production pattern between owner cultivated land and leased-in land. But, total cost of cultivation ( Rs.28832.29/acre) and net returns (Rs.5735.70/acre) of leased-in farmers were significantly differ than total cost of cultivation (Rs.18319.07/acre) and net returns (Rs.15579.50/acre) of owner farmers resulting in higher gross return (1.85) per rupee of cost in owner cultivated land as against leased-in land (1.19). The production estimates revealed that MVP to MFC ratio were greater than one for all inputs in both owner cultivated land and leased-in land except plant protection chemicals, human labour and machine labour. The results on capital formation revealed that there was significant difference in the investment on land improvement, farm buildings and domestic house and investment on livestock between owner cultivated land and leased-in land. Results also revealed that after leasing-in land, there was improvement in socio-economic conditions of leased-in farmers. The results of Likert scaling technique revealed that uncultivated land of large land lord can be put in to cultivation, lessee bears entire risk, it creates employment to rural youth and untimely termination of lease agreement were major strength, weakness, opportunity and threat of leased-in land respectively. The study suggested to strengthen system of educating farmers about judicious use of resources in both owner cultivated land and leased-in land and there is need to lease out land to lessee who takes up land improvement activity.
