The term density is related to population size and the land area with a view to assessing the pressure of population upon the resources of the area. Thus, it is a measure of the incidence of population concentration and is generally expressed in terms of persons/km2 of land area. The population density of sample village during the census periods of 1991, 2001, and 2011 was 790, 1009 and 2015 respectively an analysis has been done for the year 1991 - 2011. The concentration of population per unit area has increased over the three decades. The density of population is more near the city region. The present paper explained about population densities and its changes from 1991 to 2011 of sample village.Keywords

Changing Pattern of land use is not a new phenomenon; rather this is a constant process which has been continuously taking place over time and space. The socio-economic and technical organizational factors are interacting with one another over time and again for maintaining the continuity of such process and the result of which is reflected on the land use pattern.
The land use pattern of a region at a particular time is determined by the combined interactions among the physio-climatic, socio-economic and institutional frame work taken together. The locational advantage of the region in relation to other aspects of economic development e.g. those relating to transport as well as to industry and trade are the few important aspects which govern the land use pattern of an area. In present paper an attempt has been made to analyze that whether the present pattern is in some sort of static harmony or adjustment with the other main characteristics of the economy of the region.
The sample village is predominately rural and agrarian. It has an area of 37.65 sq.km. with a total population of 45757(2011). The climate on the whole is monsoonal. Physio-graphically it is divided into two parts. The study region is a part of middle Ganga plain. The analysis has been made at sample village to show the changes in general categories of land use i.e. (i) forest area (ii) land not available for cultivation (iii) culturable waste land (iv) fallow land (v) net sown area.

Agricultural productivity is defined as the measurement of production and inputs required for that output. The concept of productivity has been used extensively to explain the spatial organization of agriculture. Agricultural productivity is the result of various physio-cultural aspects. This research paper aims at examining variation in crop productivity and relative changes that have occurred in agricultural productivity in 2011 and identifying the deficient villages and formulating a policy to increase their productivity in study area. Present study is based on primary and secondary data. For calculating agricultural productivity Kendall’s Method has been applied in this study. Agricultural productivity increased in the study region because of availability of good irrigation facilities, use of adequate amount of fertilizers and high yielding variety of seeds.Keywords
