                    5. Whereas in the village most land is under land farming activity.<\/li>\n
                    6. Thus we can say that land is also required for production of goods in an urban area.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                          \n
                        1. Water is the natural resource required for agricultural production.<\/li>\n
                        2. But now it requires greater capital for its use.<\/li>\n
                        3. People now use electricity-run tubewells for irrigation.<\/li>\n
                        4. The electricity charges are more. ‘<\/li>\n
                        5. Farmers are setting up their own tubewells.<\/li>\n
                        6. In situations of power cut, they use diesel to run motors to draw water from the tubewell.
                          \nSo, now it requires greater capital for its use.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                    1. Not all the people engaged in agriculture have sufficient land for cultivation.<\/li>\n
                                    2. The upper caste families own a majority of the land in the village.<\/li>\n

                                    6. Even these small plots were divided among sons when their father was dead.<\/li>\n

                                      3. This indicates that there is no equal distribution of land among farmers.<\/li>\n

                                        1. Dala is a landless farm labourer who works on daily wages in Rampur.<\/li>\n
                                        2. He must regularly look for work.<\/li>\n
                                        3. His wages are less that government fixed minimum wages.<\/li>\n
                                        4. There is heavy competition for work among the farm labourers in Rampur.<\/li>\n
                                        5. So they agree to work for low wages.<\/li>\n
                                        6. As machines are increasing, the number of days of work available to a worker is very low.<\/li>\n
                                        7. Thus farm labourers like Dala are poor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                          \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

                                            \n
                                          1. Medium and large farmers generally have their own savings from farming.<\/li>\n
                                          2. They make that money as the working capital needed for farming.<\/li>\n
                                          3. They agree to give small farmers the loan at 36% per annum interest rate for four months, which is very high.<\/li>\n
                                          4. They also take promise from the small farmers to work on their lands as farm labourers during the harvest season for \u20b9 100\/- a day, which is quite low.<\/li>\n
                                          5. Thus they have the required labour.<\/li>\n
                                          6. In our region also that is one practice.<\/li>\n

                                              5. So, comparatively they earn more compared to those mentioned wages of government.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                                                  1. There are works in farming like ploughing fixed for men.<\/li>\n
                                                  2. There are several others like transplanting and picking cotton are fixed for women.<\/li>\n
