Preface	 	
Agriculture  is  the  key  economic  activity  and  a  source  of  livelihood  for  the 	
majority  of  the  population  in  India.  In  view  of  the  imperative  nee d  for  detailed  data 
on  structure  and  other  characteristics  of  Agricultural  Holdings  and  recognizing 
importance  of  agriculture  sector  in  the  economy,  the  Department   of  Agriculture, 
Cooperation and Farmers Welfare has been implementing Agriculture Cens us Scheme 
since  1970-71.  Agriculture  Census  in  India  has  been  conducting  in  accord ance  with 
the  broad  guidelines  of  decennial  World  Census  of  Agriculture  (WCA)  evolved  by 
Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of United Nations conducted at an  interval 
of  five  years.  In  Agriculture  Census, 	operational  holding	  has  been  taken  as  statistical 	
unit  at  micro-level  for  data  collection  as  operational  holding  is  the ultimate  unit  for 
taking agriculture-related decisions. 	
Execution  of  Agriculture  Census  in  Kerala  has  been  entrusted  by  Gove rnment  of 	
India  to  the  Department  of  Economics  and  Statistics.  The  present  (10th
)  Agriculture 
Census in Kerala has been conducted with reference year 2015-16 (July âJune). T he field 
work  was  done  by  the  Investigators of the department  and supervised by  District/ State 
level  officers  of  the  department.  For  the  first  time  the  data  processi ng  was  done  by 
online  software  developed  by  the  Computer  Division  of  the  Directorate  of  Econo mics 
and Statistics. 	
The  report  contains  introduction,  methodology,  sample  design,  concepts  & 	
definitions,  estimation  procedure  and  also  detailed  tables  of  number  and  area  of 
operational  holdings  classified  according  to  various  size  classes,  social  groups,  gender 
categories  and  area  of  operational  holdings  according  to  tenancy  status ,  land  use 
pattern, irrigation status and cropping pattern.  	
I  express  my  sincere  gratitude  to  State  &  District  Level  Co-ordinati on 	
Committees  for  their  earnest  co-operation  in  carrying  out  the  census  in  the  state.  I 
extend  my  sincere  gratitude  to  all  statistical  personnel  of  district &  taluk  level  offices 
for  their  contribution  in  bringing  out  the  census  a  big success.  I  congratulate  the 
Agriculture  Census  Wing  of  the  Directorate  for  their  painst aking  effort  in  publishing 
the report.  	
The database will be a guideline factor, based on which agricultural policies  of the 	
state  have  to  be  evolved  and  its  efficacy  monitored.  This  can  be  a  good   source  of 
reference  to  planners,  policy  makers,  academicians  and  researchers  in  the  field  of 
agriculture.

Introduction 
Government  of  India  have  been  conducting  Agriculture  Census  once  in  five  ye ars 
regularly  since  1970-71,  following  the  broad  guidelines  of  the  World  Agricultur al  Census. 
World  Agriculture  Census  is  conducted  by  the  Food  and  Agriculture  Organization  (FAO)  of 
United  Nations  (UN).    Agricultural  Census  is  a  large-scale  statistical  operation  for  t he 
collection  and  compilation  of  quantitative  information  about  the  structure  of  agricultur e  in 
the country. This is a 100% Central Sector Plan Scheme.  
Agriculture  Census  is  designed  mainly  to  get  an  idea  of  the  structure  of  t he 
agriculture  economy  as  such  which  can  be  had  from  a  study  of  the  changing  pattern  of  the 
operational holdings.  As the changes in the pattern are not so rapid, the Agric ulture Census 
is  conducted  at  longer  intervals.  In  India,  agriculture  is  the  most  important  act ivity  and  a 
periodical  assessment  of  the  changing  pattern  once  in  five  years  to  review  and  formulate 
programmes  in  each  five-year  plan  is  considered  adequate  and  imperative.    Based  on  the 
recommendation  of  the  National  Commission  on  Agriculture,  Agriculture  Census   in  India  is 
carried  out  at  an  interval  of  five  years  during  each  plan  period  although  Worl d  Census  of 
Agriculture (WCA) of FAO, are in favour of conducting Agriculture Census once in ten years. 
An  agricultural  operational  holding  is  the  fundamental  unit  for  decision  making  for 
development  of  agriculture  at  micro  level  and  consequently  for  developme nt  programmes 
aimed at improving the condition of individual cultivators and also for the production.  So an  
operational  holding  is taken  as  the  basic  statistical  unit  of  data  collection  for  de scribing the 
structure  of  agriculture.  For  effective  and  efficient  planning  and  implementat ion  of 
programmes,  knowledge  of  detailed  structure  and  characteristics  of  agricultur al  holding  is 
imperative.  It  is  essential  to  have  information  by  operational  holdings  as  distinc t  from 
ownership  holdings  which  are  useful  to  have  an  idea  of  the  distribution  of  wealth  but 
information  by  operational  holdings  is  more  important  for  implementation  of  agricultural  
development programmes as such. 
Agriculture Census is carried out in three distinct phases which are statistically  linked 
together.  In  phase  1,  all  the  operational  holdings  in  selected  20%  wards/divisions  in  each 
block/  municipality/  corporation  are  enumerated  and  results  giving  number  and  area  of 
operational  holdings  at  various  administrative  levels  viz;  block,  district  and  state   are 
generated according to  various  social  groups,  size  classes,  types of holdings  and  gende r.    In 
phase  2,  detailed  information  on  aspects  such  as  tenancy,  land  use,  irrigation,  cr opping 
pattern of the selected operational holdings of these selected wards is c ollected.  In phase 3 
of  the  Agriculture  Census  which  is  known  as  Input  Survey,  the  data  is  co llected  on  use  of 
different inputs from selected holdings of selected wards (35% of 20%; ie 7%). 
The  reference  year  for  Agriculture  Census  is  the  agriculture  year  (July  t o  June).  The 
first  state  wide  comprehensive  Agriculture  Census  was  conducted  in  1970-71   as  part  of  the 
National Agriculture Census 1970-71 and subsequent Agricultural Censuses wer e conducted

in  Kerala  during  1976-77,  1980-81,  1985-86,  1990-91,  1995-96, 2000-01,  2005-06  &  2010-
11.  The  present  Agriculture  Census  is  organised  with  2015-16  (1 st
  July  2015  to  30 th
  June 
2016) as reference period. It is the 10 th
 Agriculture Census in the state.  
The present State level report is based on the final results of phase 1 and phase 2  of 
10 th
  Agriculture  Census.  An  effort  has  been  made  to  present  a  perspective  organizat ion  of 
Agriculture  Census  besides  concepts,  definitions,  sample  design,  estimation  procedure  an d 
limitations of data with purposive analysis of data at state and district level.  
Objectives 
The main objectives of either phase 1 or phase 2 Agriculture Census are: - 
1.   To describe Agriculture Structure and related characteristics of agricultu re  by providing 
statistical data on operational holdings including land utilization, agricultural machinery  
and implements, use of fertilizers, etc. 
2.   To  provide  bench  mark  data  needed  for  formulating  new  agricultural  development 
programmes and for evaluating their progress. 
3.   To  provide  basic  frames of households  and  operational  holdings  for  carrying  out futu re 
agriculture surveys and, 
4.   To lay a basis for developing an integrated programme for current agriculture statist ics.

Concepts, Definitions, Methodology & Scope of the Census 
2.1 Concepts & Definitions  
2.1.1 Operational holding:  All  land  which  is used  wholly or  partly for  agricultural  production  and  is  oper ated  as 
one technical unit by one person alone or with others without regard to the  title, legal form, 
size or location.  
2.1.2 Technical Unit: 
Technical  unit  is  a  unit  of  land  which  is  under  the  same  management  and  has  the 
same means of production such as labour force, machinery and animals.  
2.1.3 Operated area: 
Operated  area  includes both  cultivated  and  un-cultivated  area, provided part of  it  is  
put  to  agricultural  production  during  the  reference  period.    If,  for  instance,   an  operational 
holding  consists  of  four  survey  numbers  out  of  which  one  survey  number  is  put  to  non- 
agricultural  uses,  the  total  area  of  the  operational  holding  will  be  equal  to  the  total 
geographical area of all the four survey numbers. 
The operated area may comprise of: i)  Land owned & self-operated	
:  
Land for which the cultivator has the right to permanent heritable possession 
would be considered as owned. This would include: 
ï·  Land  held  from  government  or  others  under  grant  or  lease  or  assignment  
with  right  of  permanent  heritable  possession  with  or  without  right  of  
transfer. 
ï·   Land operated under perpetual lease. 
Self-operated land would include:  ï·  Self-cultivation 
ï·   Land cultivated through members of the family 
ï·   Land cultivated with the help of hired labour. 
Land owned and self-operated should not include land leased out to others. 
ii)  Land leased in	
: 
Area  leased  in  is  defined  as  land  taken  on  lease  from  others  without  any 
permanent right of possession for the lessee. 
iii)  Land otherwise operated	
: 
This  would  include  encroachment;  land  forcibly  occupied,  unauthorized  or 
land  in  dispute,  etc.  which  cannot  be  treated  as  owned  or  leased  in,  as  per  the 
definitions given above.

2.1.4 Operational holder: 
A person who has the responsibility for the operation of the agricultural holding an d 
whom  is  exercise  the  technical  initiative  and  is  responsible  for  its  operation.     He  may  have 
full  economic  responsibility  or  may  share  it  which  others.  The  operational  hold er  may  be 
individual/ joint/ institutional. 
i)  Individual	
:  If  the  holding  is  being  operated  either  by  one  person  alone  or  by  group  of  
persons  who  are  the  members  of  the  same  household,  it  will  be  considered  as  an 
individual holding. 
ii)   Joint	
:    If  two  or  more  persons  belonging  to  the  different  households,  share  jointly  as  
the  partners  in  the  economic  and  technical  responsibility  for  the  operation  of  
agriculture holding, such holding will be considered as joint holding. 
iii)  Institutional	
:  Holdings  such  as  government  farms,  farms  of  sugarcane  factories, 
cooperative  farms,  lands  managed  by  trusts  etc.  would  be  treated  as  institut ional 
holding. 
2.1.5 Resident, non-resident and deemed resident operational holder  
  All  the  cultivators  residing  in  a  particular  ward  and  cultivating  some  land  within  t he 
same  block  are  resident  cultivators  of  that  ward  irrespective  of  the  fact   whether  they  are 
cultivating  land  in  that  ward  or  not.  A  resident  cultivator  may,  therefore,   have  either  (i) 
entire area of the holding located in the ward of his residence; or (ii) par tly within the ward 
of residence and partly outside; or (iii) entirely outside the ward of residence.  
  An  operational  holder  operating  area  outside  the  block  in  which  his  ward   of 
residence  comes,  will  not  be  treated  as  a  resident  cultivator  of  the  ward  of  his  residence  in 
this block  for Agriculture  Census  purposes,  rather  he  will  be  treated  as  a  r esident  cultivator 
of that ward where the area comes. 
  If  the  area  in  a  particular  ward  is  operated  by  a  cultivator  who  reside s  outside  that 
ward  but  within  the  same  block,  he  is  a  non-resident  operational  holder  for  t hat  area. 
However, if this operational holder is resident of a ward lying outside the block in  which the 
area  located,  he  will  be  treated  as  a  resident  operational  holder  ( deemed  resident)  of  the 
ward where the area is located in the block.  
2.1.6 Complete/ Part-Holding  
  A holding is said to be complete holding if the entire operated area of that  holding is 
located  in  one  ward.  If  the  operated  area  is  spread  over  more  than  one  ward,  it  w ould  be 
considered as part-holding. 
Block would be taken as the outer limit for consolidation of part-holding. 
2.1.7 Net Irrigated & Net Un-irrigated Area    Portion  of  net  sown  area  which  received  any  irrigation  (partly  or  wholly)  during  t he 
reference period may be indicated as net irrigated area. Else, if the entire  net area sown has

Agriculture Census 2015-16 	
  
Department of Economics & Statistics Page 5 
not received any irrigation during the year of reference, the entire area would be treating as 
un-irrigated.  In  another  case,  for  example,  if  a  holding  consists  of  two  separa te  parcels/ 
plots  one  received  irrigation  and  the  other  not  then  net  area  of  the  pl ot  which  received 
irrigation  would  be  net  irrigated  area  and  the  net  area  of  the  other  plot  w hich  did  not 
receive irrigation would be net un-irrigated area.  
  If  the  entire  sown  area  has  not  received  any  irrigation  during  the  ye ar  of  reference, 
such holding would be wholly un-irrigated.  
2.1.8 Land Utilization  
  Operated area would be classified into three broad categories: 
i)  Net area sown	
: Total area sown with crops & orchards, counting area sown more 
than once in the same year, only once.   
ii)  Current  fallow
:  Cropped area,  which  are  kept  fallow  during  the  current  year  but 
was cultivated in the previous year.   
iii)  Area uncultivated	
:  This area includes the following: 
a.   Fallow  land  other  than  current  fallow :  All  lands  which  are  taken  up  for 
cultivation  but  are  temporarily  out  of  cultivation  for  a  period  of  greater  
than one year but not more than five years. 
b.  Other uncultivated land excluding fallow land : This will include permanent 
pastures  &  other  grazing  land  (all  grazing  lands,  whether  they  are 
permanent  pastures,  meadows  or  not.  Village  common  grazing  lands 
would,  however,  be  excluded)  and  land  under  miscellaneous  tree  crops 
(cultivable  land,  which  is  not  included  in  the  net  area  sown  but  is  put  to 
some  agricultural  use.  Land  under  casuarinas  trees,  thatching  grasses, 
bamboo  bushes  &  other  groves  for  fuel  which  are  not  included  under 
âOrchardsâ would be covered under this category). 
c.   Culturable  waste :  All  lands  available  for  cultivation  whether  not  taken  up 
for  cultivation  or  taken  up  for  cultivation  once  but  not  cultivated  during 
the  current  year  and  the  last  five  years  or  more  in  succession  for  one 
reason or the other.  
d.  Land  not  available  for  cultivation :  This  would  include  forest,  area  under 
non-agricultural  use,  barren  and  uncultivable  land  belonging  to  the 
operational holder. 
ï·  Forest:  All  lands  classed  as  âForestsâ  under  any  legal  enactment 
dealing  with  forest  or  administered  as  forests  whether  state  owned 
or  private  and  whether  wooded  or  maintained  as  potential  forest  
land. The area of crops raised in the forest and  grazing land  or areas  
open  for  grazing  within  the  forest  would  be  included  under  the 
forest  area.  Only  private  forest  belonging  to  the  operational  holder 
would be covered for the purpose of Agriculture Census. 
ï·   Area  under  non-agricultural  use :  All  lands  occupied  by  buildings  or 
ponds  or  lands  put  to  use  other  than  agriculture  will  be  included. 
Only  such  lands  within  the  cultivated  holding  of  the  operational 
holder should be covered in the Census.

Department of Economics & Statistics Page 6 	
ï·  Barren and uncultivable land : All barren and uncultivable land within 
the cultivated holding of the operational holder should be covered in  
the census. 
2.2 Methodology adopted for Agriculture Census 2015-16  As  comprehensive  land  records  are  not  available  in  the  non  -land  record  states  like 
Kerala,  the  required  data  would  be  collected  from  the  operational  holder s  through  sample 
survey. 
A  stratified  two  stage  sampling  design  is  adopted  for  the  census  2015-16.  The 
stratum  is  block/  municipality/  corporation.  The  first  stage  unit  within  the  stra tum  is  the 
panchayat  ward/  division  and  the  second  stage  unit  is  the  operational  holding.  Fr om  each 
stratum,  20%  of  wards/divisions  were  selected  by  circular  systematic  r andom  sampling 
method  and  all  the  operational holdings  in the  selected  wards  are  enumerat ed  by adopting 
household  enquiry  method.    The  data  is  collected  from  the  operational  holders  in  sel ected 
wards in the prescribed schedules by visiting every households/institution. 
The following schedules are used for the  conduct of Agriculture Census 2015- 16 and 
are given at Appendix 2.  
  Schedule L1: List of all households & operational holdings in the sample ward  
  Schedule L2: List of all institutional holdings in the sample ward  
  Schedule L3: Ward summery 
Schedule L4: List of operational holdings in the sample wards and sample selection of  holdings. 
Table SS: Sample selection summery in the sample ward for canvassing Schedule- H

Sampling Design, Estimation Procedure and Limitations of Data 
3.1 Sampling Design    A stratified two stage sampling design is adopted for Agriculture Census in Kerala. I n 
view  of  increasing  demand  of  Agriculture  Census  data  at  block  Level,  the  community  
development  block/  municipality/  corporation  should  be  taken  as  the  stratum.    The   first 
stage  unit  within  the  stratum  is  the panchayath  ward/  division  and  the  second  stage  unit  is 
the operational holding.  20% of the total  wards are selected by circular sy stematic random 
sampling method from each stratum. 
The  total  number  of  wards  selected  for  10 th
  Agriculture  Census  is  3907.  In  each 
selected  ward  all  the  operational  holders  were  listed  in  schedule  L1.    A  separate   list  of 
institutional  holdings  was  also  prepared  for  each  sample  ward  during  the  time  of  list ing  in 
schedule  L2.    During  the  time  of  listing,  some  basic  agriculture  information  for  t he  sample 
ward was also collected in schedule L3. 
For detailed survey, 20% of operational holdings are selected from marginal (below 1 
ha) class, 50% from small, semi-medium & medium classes (between I ha & 10 ha) and 100%  
from large (10 ha & above) class. Schedule L4 is used to prepare the sampling fram e for the 
selection  of  required  number  of  holdings  for  collecting  detailed  information  in  sche dule  H. 
All  the  institutional  holdings  in  the  selected  wards  are  included  in  the  sample  for   filling 
schedule H. 
The  sampling  of  operational  holdings  is  done  separately  for  Scheduled  Castes/ 
Scheduled  Tribes/  Others  categories  of  operational  holders  as  estimates  are  to  be  worked 
out separately for each of these categories.  
3.2 Estimation Procedure  
  The  estimation  procedure  for  estimating  the  population  totals  and  their  sam pling 
errors  at  block  as  well  as  district  level  in  respect  of  specified  charact eristics  relating  to 
number  of  operational  holdings  and  the  operated  area  in  respect  of  the  non  land  rec ord 
states is given below: - 
The estimate used is âsimple meanâ. 
1.  M   :  The number of administrative blocks in a district. 
2.  Y
ij(k)  : Value of characteristic in the j th
 ward of i th
 block in a particular size class (say 
k th
 size class). 
3.  N
i  : Total number of wards in i th
 block. 
4.  n
i  : Number of selected wards in i th
 block. 
5.  n
i(k)  :  Number  of  selected  wars  in  i th
  block,  each  ward  having  at  least  one  holding 
in k th
 size class. 
6.  Y

á
i(k)  : The estimate of characteristic under study for i th 
block for k th
 size class.

3.3 Limitations   
  The  main  problem  encountered  during  analysis  of  data  was  under-reporting.  This  
was  visible  in  the  area  reported  under  the  operational  holdings  as  well  as  unde r  various 
crops.  This  is  mainly  due  to  the  reason  that  we  have  adopted  enquiry  met hod  for  the 
survey.  Majority  of  the  cultivators  were  not  keeping  any  account  related  to  agricultural 
practices  and  hence  it  is  difficult  to  elecite  information  from  their  memor y.  This  in  turn 
resulted  the  accuracy  of  information  especially  in  the  case  of  application  of  fertilizers, 
pesticides and raising of crops for different seasons of the year, etc.  The ceiling provision of 
an  individual  family  under  the  âKerala  Land  Reforms  Actâ  was  another  reason  for  un der 
reporting  by  the  holder  of  the  land.  In  the  case  of  mixed  cropping   pattern  area  under 
cultivation  of different  crops  can  be  written  only  by  counting the  number  of  trees  and  then 
converting  the  same  in  to  area  using  standard  conversion  factors  in  stand/ha.  This   trend  of 
under  reporting  is  a  common  feature  in  a  census  of  this  type  since  it  is  the   only  method  of 
collection  of  data  at  micro  level  and  that  too  at  lesser  cost.  Data  can  be  made  use  of  after 
giving  proper  allowance  to  the  estimates  knowing  the  limitation  and  inadequec y  of  the 
census data.

Highlights of the Report on Agriculture Census 2015-16  
ï·   There  is  an  increase  of  11.02%  in  the  total  number  of operational ho ldings. The 
number of holdings has increased from 68.31 lakhs in 2010-11 to 7 5.83 lakhs in 
2015-16 (Table 5.5). 
ï·   The  highest  number  of  operational  holders  belong  to  Thiruvananthapuram  
district  (8.25  lakhs)  and  lowest  number  of  operational  holders  belong  to  
Wayanad district (1.92lakhs) (Appendix 1, Table-9.1). 
ï·   Percentage  increase  in  no.  of  operational  holdings  in  2015-16  compared  to 
Agriculture  Census  in  2010-11  is  high  in  Kasaragod  (21.71%)  follo wed  by 
Palakkad (21.53%) (Appendix 1, Table-9.2). 
ï·   There  is  a  decrease  in  operated  area  from  15.11  lakhs  hectare  to  13 .95  lakhs 
hectare (7.67%) (Table-5.6). 
ï·   The  district  except  Alappuzha  shown  decline  in  area  of  operation  and  the 
sharpest fall has been in Kollam (17.58%) (Appendix 1, Table 9.3). 
ï·   The  average  size  of  operational  holding has  declined  to  0.18 hectare  in 2015-16 
as compared to 0.22 hectare in 2010-11 (Table5.8). 
ï·   The  highest  variation  in  average  size  was  found  in  large  size  class  (i .e.,  10Ha.  & 
above).  The  average  size  of  large  size  class  decreased  from  64. 58  hectare  in 
2010-11 to 51.04 hectare in 2015-16(Table-5.8). 
ï·   The individual, joint & institutional holdings have shown a growth of 11%, 141% 
& 13% respectively over previous Agriculture Census (Appendix, Table 8.1). 
ï·   The  area  of  individual  and  institutional  holdings  shown  a  decrease  of   7.9%  and 
8.14%  respectively  and  joint  holdings  shown  an  increase  of  67%  in  20 15-16  as 
compared to 2010-11 (Appendix 1, Table 8.1). 
ï·   In  Kerala,  Local  Self  Governments  (LSG)  are  promoting  organised  farming 
through social working groups such as Padasekhara Samithi, womenâs initiati ves 
such as Kudumbasree, etc. in agricultural activities, by collecting agriculture land  
and  fallow  land  for  lease  and  other  ways  for  promoting  group  farming.  They 
operate  considerable  extend  of  land  for  cultivation.  This  led  to  considera ble

growth  in  joint  operational  holdings  as  well  as  area  compared  to  previous  
census.  
ï·   There  is  an  increase  in  the  number  &  area  operated  by  Scheduled  Tribe s  (ST). 
The  number  &  area  of  operational  holdings  increased  by  13.34%  &  11.27 % 
respectively  in  2015-16.  Government  is  encouraging  Scheduled  Tribes  i n 
practicing  agricultural  activities  and  hence  cultivated  area  among  ST  colonies  
increased (Table-5.11). 
ï·   The  percentage  share  of  female  operational  holders  has  increased fr om  19.61% 
in  2010-11  to  22.98%  in  2015-16  with  the  corresponding  figures  of  13.89%  & 
15.87%  in  the  operated  area.  This  shows  that  more  &  more  females  ar e 
participating in the management & operation of agricultural lands (Table-5.11). 
ï·   The  marginal  size  class  (<1  Ha.)  alone  constitute  96.7%  of  holdings  i n  2015-16 
with  operated  area  61.37%.  In  2010-11  also  96.32%  holdings  were  in  margi nal 
size class with 58.62% share in the operated area (Table-5.3). 
ï·   Small,  semi-medium  and  medium  operational  holdings  (1.00  â  10.00  Ha.)  in the  
current  census  were  only  3.28%  with  31.83%  operated  area.  In  2010-1 1,  the 
corresponding figures were 3.65% and 33.46% (Table-5.3). 
ï·   The  holdings  in  large  size  class  (10  Ha.  &  above)  were  merely  0.02 %  of  total 
holdings and had a share of 6.8% in operated area in 2015-16 against 0.0 3% and 
7.92% respectively in 2010-11 (Table-5.3). 
ï·   According to tenancy status, 98.7% of the total number of holdings belonging to  
the  category  âwholly  owned  &  self-operatedâ  and  the  corresponding  area  
operated  was  94.87%  in  2015-16.  The  category  âwholly  otherwise  operatedâ 
contributes  only  0.16%  of  number  of  holdings  and  0.04%  of  operated  area 
(Tables 6.1 & 6.2). 
ï·   In  the  case  of  the  holdings  operated  by  Scheduled  Castes  (SC),  âwho lly  owned  & 
self-operatedâ holdings accounted about 96.31% of number with 87.14% of area  
(Tables 6.3 & 6.4). 
ï·   Among  holdings  operated  by  ST,  94.26%  of  total  number  of  holdings  were  
âwholly  owned  &  self-operatedâ  accounting  for  an  area  of  93.36%  (Tables  6.5  & 
6.6).

ï·  In  the  Agriculture  Census  2015-16,  83.2%  of  operated  area  is  used  as  net   area 
sown,  1.1%  is  current  fallow  and  15.7%  of  area  is  uncultivated.  Whereas  i n 
Agriculture  Census  2010-11,  net  area  sown  was  84.9%,  area  under  current  
fallow  was  0.8%  and  uncultivated  area  was  14.3%  of  total operated  area  (Table 
6.9). 
ï·   The  highest  percentage  of  net  cultivated  area  (58.07%)  &  uncultivated  area  
(79.14%)  among  various  size  class  groups  belong  to  the  marginal size c lass and 
the  lowest  percentage  of  net  cultivated  area  (4.63%)  &  uncultivated  area  
(2.53%) belongs to medium size class (Table 6.11). 
ï·   The  net  cultivated  area  of  holdings  operated  by  Scheduled  Castes  is  75%  and 
that of Scheduled tribes is 86% (Table 6.12) 
ï·   In  2015-16,  only  27%  of  net  area  sown  is  irrigated.  Alappuzha  district  had   the 
highest  proportion  of  net  irrigated  area  to  net  area  sown  (53.56%)  and  Kollam 
had the lowest proportion (7.04%) (Table 7.1 & 7.3). 
ï·   For holdings operated by Scheduled Castes 35% of net area sown gets i rrigation 
while for holdings operated by Scheduled Tribes it is only 17% (Table 7.2). 
The  distribution  of  number,  area  and  average  size  of  operational  holdi ngs, 
tenancy  &  land  utilization,  irrigation  status  &  cropping  pattern  are  given  i n  the 
following  chapters  and  their  district  wise  and  block  wise  break  -  ups  are  pre sented  in 
tables given in appendix 1.

5.2 Size class wise distribution of number and area of operational holdings 
The  majority  of  the  number  of  holdings  (96.7%)  had  concentrated  in  the  marginal  
size class during 2015-16. In this size class, holdings covered 61.37% of total ar ea (table-5.3). 
The  small  and  large  size  classes  contain  2.64%  and  0.02%  of  total  number  of  ho ldings 
respectively, but these size classes covered 17.37% and 6.8% of total area respective ly. 
The  number  of  holdings  increased  (11.45%)  in  the  marginal  size  class  during  the 
period from 2010-11 to 2015-16.  In the small and large size classes, there is a slight incr ease 
in  the  number  of  holding,  which  is  0.66%  and  0.21%  respectively.  But  the   number  of 
holdings decreased in the semi medium and medium size classes that is by -2.25% and -6 .4% 
respectively.  The  area  of  the  holdings  in  all  the  size  classes  showed  a  decreasing  t endency

The  size  class  wise  distribution  of  number  and  area  in  all  districts  is  given  in  table  9.6  of 
appendix  1.  The  number  of  holdings  concentrated  mostly  in  marginal  size  class  in  all  districts  and 
more  than  95%  of  holdings  of  9  districts  were  in  marginal  size  class.  The  highest  concentration  of 
holdings to marginal size class in Thiruvananthapuram (99.15%) followed by  Kollam (98.97%).  While 
considering area of holdings, the largest representation of marginal size  class in Kollam with 85.57% 
of total area. In Idukki and Wayanad districts, 28% and 21% of the total area are  in large size class. 
Size class wise data trend  
  The  size  class  wise  number  and  area  of  operational  holdings  over  the  period  from  
1970-71  to  2015-16  is  shown  in  the  table  5.4.    The  graphs  5.4  and  5 .5  show  the  trend  of 
number  and  area  of  operational  holdings  over  the  period  from  1970-71  to  2015-16.  The 
number  of  operational  holdings  shows  an  increasing  trend  in  the  marginal  size  class  and  
decreasing  trend  in  all  other  size  classes.  Considering  the  area,  it  has  been  showing  a  
tendency  by  the  cultivators  to  concentrate  in  the  marginal  size  class  (below   1  ha)  since 
1975-76 (second census).

In the case of area of individual operational holdings, all the 5 years interval periods, 
data from 1995-96 to 2015-16 (table 5.6) reveals the diminishing trend. But  the areas of the 
joint  holdings  increased  in  all  the  5  years  interval  period  except  during  the  pe riod  from 
2000-01  to  2005-06.  The  overall  picture  of  the  area  of  operational  ho ldings  over  20  years

5.4 Average size of holdings  
The  average  size  of  holdings  in  the  state  showed  a  declining  tendency  over  the  
period from 1970-71 to 2015-16 (table-5.8).  The average size of an operational holdi ng was

5.5 Distribution of holdings according to social group     The  social  group  wise  comparison  of  the  result  shows  that  out  of  the  total 
operational holders, Scheduled Caste operational holders constitute only 8% and  Scheduled 
Tribe  operational  holders  constitute  1%.    90%  of  operational  holders  are  in  th e  General 
category.    The  rest  of  1%  operational  holders  are  included  in  the  institutiona l  group.  In  the 
case  of  operated  area  also  Scheduled  Castes  and  Scheduled  Tribes  possess  3 %  each  while 
area of institutional holdings is 7% of total area and operational holders of general  category 
constitute 87% (table-5.9).  
  Majority of operational holders are coming in general social group in all districts. The  
operational  holders  in  general  group  is  high  in  Kannur  (95.58%)  and  is  low  in  W ayanad 
(76.67%).  The operated  area  under  general  group  is high  in  Pathanamthitta  (94 .56%) and  is 
low  in  Wayanad  (67.02%).  The  Scheduled  Tribes  operational  holders  are  high  in  Wayanad 
(18.99%)  and  they  operated  11.8%  of  total  area.  The  highest  number  of  Sche duled  Caste 
holders  is  in  Palakkad  (11.83%),  but they  operated  only 3.6%  of total  area.  The   district wise

The table  5.10  shows  that  majority of  the  SC  (99%),  ST  (90%) and  other  social group 
(97%)  operational  holders  were  concentrated  in  the  marginal  size  group  (below  1 ha).    In 
marginal  size  class,  99%  of  the  SC  operational  holders  operated  85%  of  total  land  ar ea  of 
that  category,  90%  of  the  ST  operational  holders  operated  52%  and  97%   of  the  general 
category  operated  65%  of  the  total  land  area  of  that  category.  85%  of  the   institutional 
holdings in the marginal size class covered 10% of the total area of that categor y. But 1.16% 
of  institutional holdings  in  the  large  size  class  (10  ha  and  above)  covered 70.6%   of  the  total 
area of land of that category.  
The  social  group  and  size  class  wise  number  of holdings,  area  operated  and  average

5.6 Gender wise distribution of number & area of operational holdings   In  2015-16,  male  holdings  constituted  76.18%  of  total  holdings  and  76.64%  of  total 
operated area while female holdings constituted 22.98% with 15.86% of operate d area.  The 
table -5.11 reveals that there is an increasing trend in number and area operated  by females 
in 2015-16 over 2010-11.  But in the case of males, number of holdings increased  in 2015-16 
over 2010-11 and area showed a decreasing trend.  
  The  district  wise  distribution  of  gender  wise  number  of  operational  holdings  and  
area  operated  is  obtained  from  table  9.13  of  appendix  1.  The  district  wise  pe rcentage 
variation  in  number  and  area  of  operational  holdings  is  shown  in  tables  9.14  &  9.15  of  
appendix  1.  The  block  wise  number  and  area  according  to  social  group  and  gender  is  
distributed in table 10.3 and 10.4 of appendix 1.

Chapter - 6 
Tenancy and Land Utilization 
6.1 Tenancy status of operational holdings    In  Agriculture  Census,  operational  holdings  are  categorized  according  to  differen t 
tenure characteristics. These categories are â (1) wholly owned and self-operated,  (2) wholly 
leased-in,  (3)  wholly  otherwise  operated,  (4)  partly  owned  and  partly  leased-in,  (5)  pa rtly 
owned  and  partly  otherwise  operated,  (6)  partly  leased-in  and  partly  otherw ise  operated 
and  (7)  partly  owned,  partly  leased-in  and  partly  otherwise  operated.  The  area  âo therwise 
operatedâ  relates  to  area  occupied  and  operated  by  the  operational  holder  by  
encroachment  or  through  forcible  occupation  of  government/  private  land  or  la nd  under 
litigation or land acquired by Government but being operated by the holder.  
  The  distribution  of  number  and  area  of  operational  holdings  by  tenancy  status  
according  to  major  size  groups  of  holdings  for  all  social  groups  in  2015-16  and  its  grap hical 
representation  may  be  seen  in  the  tables  6.1  &  6.2  and  graphs  6.1  &  6.2  respectively.  The 
above  mentioned  last  four  categories  of  holdings  have  been  clubbed  and  shown   under 
âothersâ in these tables for analytical purpose. 
 In  these  tables  it  is  seen  that  most  of  the  holdings  are  âwholly  owned  and  self-
operatedâ category in  all size classes and the rest of the holdings are distr ibuted  in all other 
categories.

  In  case  of  Scheduled  Castes,  âwholly  owned  and  self-operatedâ  holdings  accounted 
for  about  96.31%  in  terms  of  number  with  87.14%  of  area.  The  âwholly  lease d-inâ 
operational  holdings  had  a  proportion  of  1.96%  covering  1.35%  of  area.  The  âwholly  
otherwise  operatedâ  operational  holdings  were  0.28%  having  an  operated   area  of  0.08%. 
The  remaining  four  types  of  operational  holdings,  categorized  under  âothersâ  were   to  the 
extent of 1.44% of the total holdings, operating an area of about 11.44%. 
Among holdings  of  Scheduled  Tribes,  94.26%  of number  of  operational holdings  were  
âwholly  owned  and  self-operatedâ  accounting  for  an  area  of  93.36%.  The  âw holly  leased-inâ 
holdings  accounts  for  0.38%  operating  an  area  of  0.27%.  The  âwholly  otherwise  op eratedâ 
holdings  accounted  for  2.39% with  corresponding  area  of  0.42%  while  âothe rsâ  accounts for 
2.97%  with  an  area  of  5.95%.  This  indicates  that  over  96%  of  the  holdi ngs  in  2015-16  were 
owned and self-operated in the case of both Scheduled Castes & Scheduled Tribes. 
The  tables  8.6  &  8.7  of  appendix  1  give  distribution  of  number  of  holdings  and  area 
operated  by  tenancy  status  according  to  seven  types  of  tenurial  character istics  for

  During  Agriculture  Census  2015-16  âwholly owned  &  self-operatedâ  holdings  had th e 
highest  share  of  98.7%  at  Kerala.  In  all  districts  above  90%  holdings  were  wholly  owned  & 
self-operated and in Kasaragod, Kannur, Kozhikode, Thrissur, Kollam & Thiruvananthapuram  
almost all (above 99%) holdings were wholly owned & self-operated.

Department of Economics & Statistics Page 39 
  The âwholly leased-inâ holdings & âwholly otherwise operatedâ accounted only 0.2 9% 
&  0.16%  respectively.  The  proportion  of  wholly  leased-in  holdings  is  high  in  Idukki  (5 .34%) 
and proportion of wholly otherwise operated holdings is high in Wayanad (3.29%).  
As regards âothersâ Wayanad (3.78%), Malappuram (1.04%), Palakkad (1.08%),  Idukki 
(1.6%), Kottayam (1.15%), Alappuzha (1.48%) & Pathanamthitta (1.53%) were having  higher 
representation than state average of 0.85%.

The  distribution  of  operated  area  in  districts  according  to  tenancy  status  followed 
similar  pattern  as  the  number  of  operational  holdings.  In  all  districts  except  Iduk ki  & 
Alappuzha, above 90% of operated area were âwholly owned & self-operatedâ. 
The proportion of âwholly leased-inâ area in relation to total operated area  was higher 
in the districts Idukki & Wayanad than the State average of 1.15%. The pr oportion of âwholly 
otherwise  operatedâ  area  in  every  districts  recorded  below  1%  and  the  state   average 
recorded was only 0.04%. 
The  proportion  of  operated  area  under  âothersâ  category  was  highest  in  Wayanad 
(6.35%)  followed  by  Kottayam  (5.7%),  Ernakulam  (5.29%),  Malappuram  (4.61%),  
Pathanamthitta (4.36%) & Palakkad (4.3%) etc. 
Table  9.16  of  appendix  1  gives  the  district  wise,  social  group  wise  distribution  of  
number  of  holdings  and  area  operated  by  tenancy  status  according  to  sev en  types  of 
tenurial  characteristics.  Also,  the  block wise  distribution  of  number  and area  of oper ational 
holdings by tenancy status according to four tenurial characteristics is give n  in table 10.5 of 
appendix 1.  
6.2 Land Utilization  
  The  area  under  different  types  of  land use  during  Agriculture  Censuses  from  19 95-
96  to  2015-16  may  be  seen  in  table  6.9.  In  this  table,  it  is  seen  that  83.20%  of  the  total 
operated  area  used  for  cultivation,  1.10%  area  under  current  fallow  and  15.70%  are a 
remains  uncultivated  during  this  census  period.The  total  operated  area  shows  a  de creasing 
trend in each census while the percentage distribution of land was almost  uniform in all the 
censuses.  It  is  also  seen  that,  during  2015-16,  the  percentage  of  net  ar ea  sown  shows  a 
slight  decrease  while  area  under  current  fallow  &  uncultivated  area  show  a  slight  increase 
compared to previous census.

11  &  2015-16  given  in  table  9.18  of  appendix  1.  This  table  reveals  that  no  abnormal 
variations  were  noticed  in  any  district  during  each  census.  It  is  also  seen  tha t,  the  net  area 
sown  is  high  in  Idukki  district  followed  by  Palakkad  district  and  is  low  in  Alappuzha  district  
during  2015-16.  The  largest  percentage  in  the  area  under  current  fallow  and  uncultivated 
area  is  in  Malappuram  district  followed  by  Ernakulam  &  Palakkad  districts  and  the  lowest  
percentage is in Wayanad district.   
  Table 9.19 of appendix 1 shows the district wise percentage of area und er main land 
use to total operated area during Agriculture Censuses from 2000-01 t o 2015-16. According 
to  this  table,  the  total  operated  area  is  distributed  almost  uniformly  in  all  the   censuses. 
During  2015-16  census  83.22%  area  is  under  net  area  sown,  1.12%  area  is  under   current 
fallow and 15.66% area is under uncultivated area out of total operated area in the state.  
  The block wise percentage of area under main land use to total operated area during  
Agriculture Census 2015-16 may be seen in table 10.6 of appendix 1.

Table  6.11  gives  the  percentage  of  net  cultivated  area  and  uncultivat
ed  area  among 
various  size  class  groups.  From  this  table,  it  is  seen  that  âmarginalâ  size  class  c onstitute  the 
large area in both net cultivated and uncultivated area. It is increased fr om previous census, 
which  means  that  sub  divisions  and  fragmentation  of  operational  holding  is  higher  in  the 
state.  
Net  cultivated  area  shows  a  slight  decrease  in  âsmallâ,  âsemi-mediumâ  &   âlargeâ  size 
classes  and  a  little  increase  in  âmediumâ  size  class.  Uncultivated  area  also  decreased  in  
âsmallâ, âsemi-mediumâ &âmediumâ size classes and increased in âlargeâ size class.

7.1.1   Cropping Pattern 
  Gross cropped area enumerated during Agriculture Census 2015-16 were 1 3.86 lakhs 
Ha.  The  cropping  pattern  is  entirely  different  in  the  state  compared  to  othe r  Indian  states. 
Food crops are cultivated mainly along with commercial crops in the same land. Multiplic ity 
of  crops  and  intensity  of  cropping  exists  in the  state.  In the  same plot  seasonal,  annual  and 
perennial crops are cultivated. Totally there are 178 crops covered in the census.  
However, the percentage distribution of area under principal crops to gross cr opped 
area  during  2000-01,  2005-06,  2010-11  &  2015-16  is  given  in  table   7.1  and  its  graphical 
representation for 2015-16 is given in graph 7.1.  
  From this table it is seen that paddy cultivated area decreased from 11.21 % in 2000-
01  to 10.73% in 2005-06 and 8.8% in 2010-11. But it is increased to 1 0.21% in 2015-16. The 
percentage  cultivation  area  of  coconut,  tapioca, cashew  & arecanut  shows  a  de crease  in all 
the  censuses.  The  percentage  areas  of  jackfruit,  tea,  pepper,  coffee,  mango  and  banana 
increased  in  2015-16.  Whereas  percentage  area  of  rubber  cultivation  shows  an  increase  in 
all censuses expect the present census 2015-16.
