摘要

Since time immemorial diversification in agriculture has been practiced by the ancestors to sustain their farm income. Much is claimed about the economic and ecological advantages of diversified farming and its sustainability level. The current challenges faced by the Indian cotton farming due to changes in technologies & needs of the mills, social threat viz., farmers suicides and fluctuations in area, production and productivity of the crop are some of the compulsive forces in favour of farm diversification. The present study documented the various diversification approaches practiced by the cotton growers, measured farmers' attitude towards diversification and measured the sustainability of diversified and non-diversified cottonfarms in Tamil Nadu using multiple random sampling techniques. Data were collected by using well constructed interview schedules. The study documented eight types of diversification practices in cottonfarms viz., Cotton + Other crops, Cotton + Other crops +Dairy, Cotton +Other crops + Poultry, Cotton + Other crops + Poultry + Goat rearing, Cotton + Other crops + Dairy + Biogas, Cotton + Other crops + Dairy +Biogas+ Sericulture, Cotton + Other crops + Dairy + Biogas + Vermiculture and Cotton + Other crops + Dairy +Biogas+ Vermiculture + Sericulture + Farm machineries along with the cotton alone subsistence farming. The study noticed that majority of the respondents had a highly favourable attitude towards farm diversification. Analysis on the sustainability of the diversified and non diversified cottonfarms revealed that the sustainability level of the diversified cottonfarms was found to be significantly higher than non-diversified cottonfarms.
