Abstract

In this investigation we analyze impact of diversification of agriculture on farmer's income, a study from primitive tribal groups from eastern ghats of India. We have taken crop diversification index to measure the extent and regression formalism to analyze the impact, of crop diversification. Descriptive statistics is employed to know the average income of the farmers, paired results of crop diversification index. We observed a positive impact on crop diversification in scheduled areas and investigated reasons where it did not work.
