“…Additionally, the adverse effects of the green revolution, extensively practised during the 1970s, are now seen in terms of seasonal mono-cropping of wheat and paddy in rabi and kharif seasons. There is also supportive evidence regarding water logging conditions in fields, increased water and soil salinity, and decreased farmers' income (Rena et al 2021, Singh et al 2012. Maintaining land fertility with high water retention capacity, ensuring high crop productivity for extended periods, and utilizing the resources must be scientifically planned and managed without compromising future needs (Singh and Amrita 2017).…”

The increasing population, depletion of natural resources, semi-arid climatic and poor soil health conditions in Jhajjar district of Haryana have drawn major attention towards the changes in Land Use/Land Cover (LULC). The region's increasing population is mainly dependent upon the agrarian economy; thus, sustainable agricultural production is a major thrust area of research. The present study analyses the LULC changes in the area during two decades 2000 – 2020, using remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS). Landsat satellite images (Landsat-7 and Landsat-8 satellites) for 2000 and 2020 were analyzed for mixed classification based on unsupervised classification followed by supervised classification. The study area has experienced an increase in agricultural land, surface water bodies and built-up land by 16.89%, 79.73% and 56.41%, respectively. There is a decrease in barren land and fallow land by 48.53% and 36.97%, respectively, as per the five major LULC classes. The LULC analysis indicates an increase in built-up land, which is responsible for controlling agricultural productivity and unsustainable agricultural activities. The study provides a comprehensive understanding of the land use trajectory in a specific region in two decades and associated unsustainable changes in the agrarian economy through pressure on the increase in agricultural production and conversion of land mass into croplands. It also signifies climate-resilient agriculture and the management of sustainable agriculture.
