IGP-4
Low productivity (Rice-Wheat 4-5 t/ha)
- low to medium potential
Poor investment in infrastructure
Medium-high precipitation
High potential for cold water fisheries
and livestock
Degradation of Land and water
resources
Deficient human capital combined with
high out-migration
Downstream environmental constraints
Low population density
Low Productivity (4-8 t/ha) - Food deficit region
Low investment in infrastructure
Low inputs of fertilizer and water
Medium - High rainfall, More per capita water
availability
Underutilization of ground water (< 20 %)
Very few developed irrigation network
Coastal salinity and sea water intrusion
Moderate water quality hazards
High risk of flooding, poor drainage and
moderate drought
Out-migration of labour to other regions
High population density
High Productivity (R-W: 8-12 t/ha) - Food surplus region
High investment in infrastructure
Major inputs of fertilizer and water
Low - Medium rainfall, Low per capita water availability
Over exploitation of ground water (>80 %)
Well developed irrigated network
Secondary salinization
Severe ground water quality hazards
Severe to moderate drought prone areas

5 AES of Patna District
Agro-ecologically South Bihar Alluvial Plains Zone III B is spread south of river Ganga.
Physiographically it is almost plain alluvium, but to the south of the natural levee of
Ganga, there is a parallel stretch of Diara land receiving flash floods. At the eastern end
of the district there are stretches of Tal lands where backwaters of Ganga River stagnate
in low lands during Kharif season floods, between September-December every year. Tal
lands extend from Fatuha to Mokameh blocks in the district, where most natural
drainage systems, i.e., rivers from south, simply vanish.

Tal :

o
o
o
o
o
Low-lying area separated from the river Ganga by its
natural levee.
Inundated on the onset of monsoons, as the riverbed
swells with the backwaters of the river pond in this area.
After late September, the water starts receding from
higher reaches and drains completely by the middle of
December.
The soils are grey, medium heavy-to-heavy in texture,
very poor in drainage and crack widely on drying.
Major crops during Rabi season crops like lentil, and
gram with no crop possible during Kharif due to
submergence.
The cultivated land under this segment is 30209.06 ha.,
contributing 15.02 % land to the district.
Diara
o Natural levees of river Ganga or its abandoned channels nearby.
o These are subject to flash floods during monsoons, resulting in
either erosion or deposition of soil every year.
o Soil is light in colour and texture, well drained and crops are
mostly taken during Rabi.
o Choice of Kharif (liable to be washed off) and summer (mostly
vegetables) crops depend upon type of Diara. Enterprising
farmers are developing irrigation facilities on stable Diaras for
crops and some have even gone for orchards like mango, guava
etc.
o Parval is an important vegetable crop among cucurbits and
farmers are earning from selling its root cuttings as planting
material.
o This area is about 16344.98 ha., in the district contributing 8.12
% to the cultivated land.
Jalla
o These are similar to Tal lands, but are a bit shallower,
getting partial and short duration inundation in parts by
the river Punpun and its tributaries.
o Due to its proximity to Patna town, it also receives
drainage water of the city.
o Though it is highly fertile, it carries some harmful
chemicals along with heavy metals that enter the food
chain.
o This area is mostly known for its vegetable cultivation
besides pulses and more recently for potato and onion.
o This constitutes only 1.74 % (i.e., 3508.50 ha.,) of
cultivated area in the district.
Irrigated Plains
o These areas have assured irrigation facilities either
through Sone command system or through state or private
owned tubewells.
o This part of the district has good, well-drained soils and
the farmers follow predominantly Rice-Wheat rotation.
o The private tubewell owners seldom irrigate rice crop.
Some vegetables, spices and flowers are also grown in
this area.
o The cultivated area under this AES is 67637.24 ha.,
constituting 33.63 % of the net cultivated area.
o Although this area is most affected by extremism and
class wars, it has the highest potential in terms of number
of enterprises possible.
Rainfed plains
o These have climate and soils similar to irrigated
plains and mainly follow the same cropping
sequence by and large but they lack assured
irrigation facility.
o Availability of water mostly decides the choice of
Rabi crops.
o This covers a significant 83403.85 ha., i.e., 41.47
percent of the cultivated area.
o The AES has immense scope for diversification.
