📄 Abstract
India is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. It is the seventh-largest country by area and the second-largest by population. Agriculture remains the most important sector of the Indian economy. It is also known as the backbone of the Indian economy. Small and marginal holdings (below 2.00 ha) constituted 86.08 per cent in 2015-16 as against 85.01 per cent in 2010-11 and had 46.94 per cent of the area in the recent census as against the corresponding figure of 44.58 per cent in 2010 -11 in the country. Ambedkar's views deal with agriculture and are a landmark in the field of economics. In contrast to the labour and resources of the farmer, Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar believed that the size of the agricultural sector determines the productivity of the industry. To solve the problem, he suggested intensive farming. His views on land tenure, collective farming and land revenue are most useful today.
