Consolidation of land holdings involves reorganizing fragmented agricultural plots into larger, contiguous units.
This process aims to improve agricultural productivity and efficiency by reducing land fragmentation, which hampers mechanization and optimal use of resources.
In India, land consolidation programs have been implemented to address these issues, particularly in states like Punjab and Haryana.
Successful consolidation can lead to better land management, increased agricultural output, and enhanced livelihoods for farmers, contributing to overall rural development.
