Land is a pivotal resource in agriculture
production but its uneven distribution retards the welfare
of developing nations. Skewed asset distribution in the
rural areas is a cause of serious concern which consequently
brings poverty and deprivations to the affected. Land
distribution disparities were focused on to observe its
relationship with different on-farm and socio-economic
indicators. Nevertheless, total and partial factor
productivities, gross margins, cropping intensity, crop
diversity, income distribution disparities, institutional
and non-institutional credit availability were also explored
in three different areas categorized on the basis of water
availability. It was found that land inequality dissipated
the impact of all of the factors of productions including
perennial irrigation and had been a major cause of income
inequality. Implications of the study demand from policy
makers to promulgate and implement land reforms with optimum
farm size. Moreover, researchers must further highlight the
dilemma of land inequality by exploring its further draw
backs.
