Land and Labour Productivity in Karnataka: A Comparisons.

Dr. Hanumanthappa K M

Abstract :

The comparisons of labour and land productivity indices for the twenty–seven districts of the state and also in terms of growth rates are presented The extent of labour and land productivity has been measured on the Y/L vertical axis and Y/A horizontal axis respectively. Broadly three distinct scatters or paths extending out from the origin can be observed: (a) the first scatter or path indicated by a group of districts namely, Belgaum, Shimoga, Bijapur, Bagalkot, Bidar, Mandya and Kodagu, where the extent of relationship between both productivities is highly favourable, (b) the second scatter is indicated by the districts of Chitradurga, Davangere, Chikamaglur, Hassan, Mysore, Chamarajnagar, Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Bellary, where the extent of relationship between labour and land productivity has not been so favourable, and (c) the third path is indicated by the remaining districts of the state where the relative productivity indices are far below the above two extremes. These relationships may further be visualized and each path seems to reflect the long–run process of productivity variations in respect of Labour and Land Output in each district which represents a part of certain region in the state.
