Economic Agrarian Structure is also referred to as the land management system. It is very important for a farmer to be able to manage his resources to reap a good harvest. Man has been cultivating land since time immemorial with the use of labor and capital. The three elements that are land, labor and capital are the resources that man has to manage properly to be able to produce a large quantity of crops both to feed his family and also to fulfill his other needs.

The Modern Agricultural Scenario

In modern times agriculture is considered to be an economic activity. Previously man used to cultivate land only to feed himself and his family but in later times an economic value has also been attached to agriculture where man produces not only to quench his hunger but also to sell it in the market and receive some money so that he can utilize that money to invest in his agricultural activity.

Modern day farming is well integrated with the industrial sector. It has become market oriented. It is considered to be an economic enterprise which is well planned and executed. Agriculture now is not only the interplay of land, labor and capital but also a blend of a number of other factors that are generated outside the fields. The farmer has to get into business with the suppliers and buyers and it becomes his responsibility to fulfill their wants.

The agrarian structure should be developed in such a way that it could help the farmer to increase productivity. This is not possible for an individual farmer. Hence, the other factors which are not directly involved in cultivation of land should also be well developed like the credit providing institutions. A farmer would be able to manage and optimize his resources only when he receives the required aid from the society and the government. An effort to increase the agricultural produce should involve the different sectors of the society not just the farmer.
