ABSTRACT:
There are 2 development blocks and 19 Nyaya Panchayats in Bara Tehsil of Prayagraj district. Due to various social, economic and physical factors, spatial disparity in land use is observed in the study area Bara Tehsil. Due to this reason, spatial disparity is also observed in land use efficiency at Nyaya Panchayat level in the tehsil. The main objective of this research paper is to analyze the spatial pattern of land use efficiency at Nyaya Panchayat level in the tehsil, and for these 5 factors have been taken as the base. General ranking method has been used to determine land use efficiency for Nyaya Panchayats. The presented research paper is based on secondary data, which has been obtained from the Census Handbook of Prayagraj district. According to this study, in the study area Bara Tehsil, Nyaya Panchayat Lotadh has the highest land use efficiency while Amagodar Nyaya Panchayat has the lowest.
