Abstract Agriculture is the most significant for the Indian economy and the main source of livelihood of people. The agricultural sector is highly dependent on natural factors like rainfall and soil fertility, which vary across regions. This study tries to examine the crop pattern and its consequences on production and problems in the Chhatarpur district. The district is known for its high agricultural productivity, mainly due to the availability of fertile soil and adequate rainfall. Its economy can be easily grouped as an Agrarian economy. We analyse the crop pattern in the district and evaluate the impact of the same on agricultural production. This study finds that the predominant crops in the district are wheat, soybean, maize, paddy, mustard, lintel and gram(chickpea). The cultivation of these crops has significantly contributed to the growth of the agricultural sector in the district. However, the over-dependence on a few crops has also resulted in various challenges like low crop diversity, soil degradation, and pest infestations, which affect agriculture production. And also proposed some policies, and recommendations to address these challenges and promote sustainable agriculture in the district.
