S. M. MULANI

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The present paper aims to examine food spatial dimension of excess and shortage areas in Solapur district. The study is based on secondary data; the results were drawn by applying appropriate statistical techniques and cartographic methods. Areas of food surplus and deficit have been mapped by making use of data at tahsil level. The recommended requirement of food grain, for Indian person is taken as standard. The areas where availability of food grain is more; that areas are considered as surplus areas and deficit areas are considered with the level availability of food grain than the requirement. We have discussed various criteria to estimate food availability in general. Now it is quite appropriate, to consider individual crop for the Solapur district as a whole for the year 2011.
