Abstract

Salinity has deleterious effects on both crops and livestock. The present study evaluated the impact of salinity on livestock-based farming systems by comparing the economics in saline and normal areas of West Bengal. The study also identified the factors affecting gross revenue in production function framework using CD function and resource use efficiency of different livestock-based farming systems. This will help the policy makers to frame policies enhancing livelihood in saline areas and help the farmers to adapt the ideal farming system. In saline area, S2 (1.116) and S3 (1.399) had increasing return to sale. In case of S2 farming system, both concentrate and veterinary services and for S3 concentrate, veterinary services and seed were under used and increasing their level to a optional level will raise the gross revenue. In normal areas, N1 (1.4045) farming system showed increasing return to scale and also there is a scope for further use of fodder, veterinary services and fertilizer efficiently. Based on both resource use efficiency and return to scale S2 should be recommended for landless farmers and S3 for land holders in saline areas and N1 farming system should be recommended for the farmers in normal areas.

西孟加拉邦盐碱地和正常地区畜牧业系统资源利用效率的比较分析
盐碱对作物和牲畜都有有害影响。本研究通过比较西孟加拉邦盐碱地区和正常地区的经济效益,评估了盐碱对畜牧业系统的影响。研究还利用 CD 函数和不同畜牧业系统的资源利用效率,确定了生产函数框架中影响总收入的因素。这将有助于决策者制定改善盐碱地区生计的政策,并帮助农民适应理想的耕作制度。在盐碱地区,S2(1.116)和 S3(1.399)的销售回报率不断提高。在 S2 耕作制度中,精料和兽医服务都未得到充分利用,而在 S3 耕作制度中,精料、兽医服务和种子都未得到充分利用,将其提高到可选水平将提高总收入。在正常地区,N1(1.4045)耕作制度的规模回报率不断提高,而且还有进一步有效利用饲料、兽医服务和肥料的空间。根据资源利用效率和规模回报率,建议盐碱地区的无地农民采用 S2 型耕作制度,有地农民采用 S3 型耕作制度,正常地区的农民采用 N1 型耕作制度。
