Why land holding size is uneconomical in india?

Dear Student,
Answer to your question is as follows :

It is certainly uneconomical, as it leads to division of land. Farmers then put excessive pressure on land trying to attain maximum output. Due to excessive population growth, the farmers had to divide a large agricultural area into smaller parts for continuing farming.They make use of the land to its maximum possible extent by growing several crops throughout the year.They are also completely dependent on small land holdings.
Such farming cannot make use of modern technology and so the output of production is low which do not suffice the needs of the farmers. It, therefore,creates pressure on  agricultural land which in due course of time loses fertility.

Dear friend
Cause landlords were in possession of large pieces of land after India' s independence . most of the farmers are very poor and have insufficient land area . Also because irrigation system is very poor and farmers depend on rains and monsoon and they do not practice intensive and multiple cropping but follow primitive methods of agriculture and cultivation . hope this solves your doubt .
