GEOGRAPHICAL AREA is that area which has been surveyed and calculated by the
FOREST AREA is the area of any land classed or administered as forest under any legal.
enactment dealing with forests. Any cultivated area which may exist within such forest
AREA NOT AVAILABLE FOR CULTIVATION is that uncultivated area of the farm which
is under farm home-steads, farm roads and other connected purposes and therefore not
CULTURABLE WASTE is that uncultivated farm area which is fit for cultivation but was
CULTIVATED AREA is that area which was sown at least during the year under reference
CURRENT FALLOW is that area which is vacant during the year under
reference but was sown at least once during the previous year.
NET AREA SOWN is that area which is sown at least once during (Kharif &
Rabi) the year under reference.
AREA SOWN MORE THAN ONCE is the difference between the total cropped
area and the net area sown. TOTAL CROPPED AREA means the aggregate area of crops raised in a farm Survey of Pakistan. Source:- Provincial Agriculture Departments.
110 (Million Hectares) LAND UTILIZATION STATISTICS during the year under reference including the area under fruit trees. available for cultivation. should be excluded (and shown under heading cultivated area). or during the previous year. Cultivated Area = Net Area sown + Current Fallow not cropped during the year under reference nor in the year before that. TOTAL AREA REPORTED is the total physical area of the village/deh, tehsil or district etc.
