LRISD, NIC(Hqrs) Location Code and coding scheme in Crop type Codes It is the name of the field which is being used to capture information regarding Crops grown in referred plot of land. At present, the crops information is collected season wise by the revenue functionaries in the various states. There are around 500 various types of crops grown with their variants which are stored in the database. The prime scope of the field is to describe crops grown in particular plot. Agriculture Census division of Ministry of Agriculture is a nodal agency which also conducts nation wide agriculture census across all the states. According to 2000-2001 agriculture census , major crops of the country has been classified in nineteen groups. Each group may have 99 group members.

have been enlisted. The Coding scheme is made up of four digits. A list of standard codes along with name of Crops is being given in Table 2.1- Standard Classification adopted for crops with digital coding scheme. Table 2.1 - Standard Classification adopted for Crops with digital coding scheme Code 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 Classification Cereals Pulses Food Grains Sugar Crops Spices & Condiments Fruits Vegetables Other Food Crops Food Crops Oil Seeds Fibres Dyes & Tan materials Drugs & Narcotics Fodder & Green Manures Plantation Crops Floriculture Crops Aromatic & Medicinal Plants Other Non Food Crops Non Food Crops

LRISD, NIC(Hqrs) In order to accommodate local variations of these crops at state level , two more digits are being introduced for example, as per Agriculture census Code Wheat is referred as 0106. But let us say in a particular state local Varity of wheat is called as wheat-desi. In order to accommodate these local variations of wheat , two more digits could be employed. Hence Wheatgroup census coding scheme. Similarly , if name of crop itself is very specific local name, it could be listed under

LRISD, NIC(Hqrs) Soil type The soil data is being collected by patwari/village accountants at parcel level. This ground level data could provide soil information which could be integrated at 1:50000/1:250000 scale soil maps as prepared by national level organizations like Department of Space/NBSS,NRSA & LUP/ AISLUS. 2.4.3 Existing System: 2.4.4 Survey and Settlement Department Land revenue registers are available in all the States. This database has the soil data as collected by the patwari in local terms. The electronic form of the same data is also available in the database and is collected under the computerization of land records project. 2.4.5 Disadvantages: 1.The soil data as available in the land records database is collected by using conventional approaches. The data is collected by the Patwari and he is not a soil expert. 2. There is a clear cut gap between the data collected by the Patwari and the data collected by different agencies in a scientific way. 3. The data as collected by the patwari is in more of land use and land revenue sense then the soil composition and physical characteristics. 4. There is no scientific correlation between the soil nomenclature as followed by the patwari and the soil code made by the various national level agencies. Soil type is captured in the Land Records Database in the states of Andaman and Nicobar, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Karnataka, Sikkim and Puducherry. There are about 998 different soil types in states like Rajasthan wherein they could be accommodated as sub-category in nine major categories of soil types in that State. Hence, after a detailed study of the soil codes in practice in the states, it was found that the digital code for storing soil type was five digits as 00000. The extreme left two digits would indicate the major category of soil such as Black Cotton, Alluvial, Wasteland, Hilly, Rocky, Sandy, Loamy, Silt, Clay, Red, Stony, Mixed, Garden and Others.

Sixteen Major Types of Soil Soils are diverse and differ from area to area. Sixteen major types of soils have been recognized. These are listed below: 1. Red loamy soils (Eastern Himalayas, eastern ghats, Tamil Nadu uplands), 2 Red and lateritic soils (eastern plateau, north-eastern hills, western ghats), 3 Red and yellow soils (eastern plateau adjoining central highlands), 4 Shallow and medium black soils (Deccan plateau, central Maharashtra and Karnataka plateau), 5 Medium and deep black soils (central highlands, Narmada Valley, Malwa plateau, Bundelkhand and Kathiawar peninsula), 6 Mixed red and black soils (parts of Deccan plateau, Telangana, Bellary and Anantpur regions of Karnataka plateau), 7 Coastal alluvium - derived soils (eastern and western coastal plains), 8 alluvium - derived soils (western, northern and eastern plains), 9 Desert soils (southwestern Punjab, Haryana plains, Rajasthan, Marusthali and Kachchh peninsula), 10 Tarai soils (foothills of central and western Himalaya), 11 Brown and red hill soils (eastern Himalaya), 12 Saline and alkali soils (Kathiawar peninsula, alluvial plains of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan), 13 Shallow and skeletal soils (Ladakh and Kashmir). 14 Grey brown soils (foothills of Aravallis), 15 Brown forest and podzolic soil (north-western Himalaya),

National Level Efforts for Soil Mapping It is observed that various national level organizations like NBSS & LUP, All India Soil and Land Use Survey, NNRMS Division of Department of Space are involved in preparation of soil map of the country in scales like 1:50000 and 1:250000. For this purpose the Maps of Survey of India and Satellite Maps are being used. These agencies use soil taxonomic classification which is strictly hierarchical in nature and is divided into six groups namely order, sub-order, great-order, great-group, family and series. They have identified 29 soil characteristics for classification of soil. The benchmark soil series used by NNRMS, ISRO, Department of Space, Bangalore is attached with Annexure-2 of this document. A sample classification of the soil code is shown below: SOIL-CODE CODING SCHEME FOR SOILS UPTO SUB-GROUP LEVEL Coding scheme for soil layer AA- BB- CC- DD- EEFFGG-HH (16 digits) AA Order (Two digits) BB Sub-Order (Two digits) CC- Grate Group (Two digits) DD- Sub-group (Two digits) EE- Family, Texture (Two digits) FF- Family, Mineralogy (Two digits) GG-Family, Temperature (Two digits) HH- Series (Two digits) Level Detail Scale Code Level-1 Sub-Group 1:1Million AABBCCDD Level-2 Family 1:2,50,000 AABBCCDDEEFFGG Level-3 Series 1:50,000 AABBCCDDEEFFGGHH

SIZE OF HOLDING (Farmer Category) Size of Holding) to capture information about the Category of the Farmer. It is based on the total land holding in hectares. BPL census list cater to the actual need of the government at various level of administration. These are being used for various Rural Development Schemes.

NIC,DIT,GOI

LRISD, NIC(Hqrs) Table 2.9.1 gives a list of standard codes used for size of holding. Table 2.9.1 Codes for size of holding in Land Records Holding Holding size name size Code 1 Large Farmer (greater than 5 hectares) 2 Medium Farmer (greater than 2 hectares and less than/equal to 5 hectares) 3 Small Farmer/Marginal Farmer (less than/equal to 2 hectares) ENCODING Since Land Records data is available in the local language, there is need for a standard encoding scheme. At present, some states are storing data in 7 bit ISCII, ISFOC and 8 bit ISCII. Unicode and its standards fonts as available for a specific language may be adopted. The system shall enable transliterated outputs in English in respect of vernacular data for integration of state level data at the national level. CASTES/TRIBES The classification adopted at the national level are only the major categories from the land records database. The detailed list of castes/tribes are maintained by the respective social welfare departments of the states and the centre. The States can have 2 digits for each sub category under the major category, so that 99 sub types can be accommodated in each major category, but at the national level we have identified only the following 9 major categories having four digits. The total length of digital code assigned for castes/tribes type is 4 characters such as 0000. The list of standard castes/tribes codes adopted in Land Records is given in Table 2.13.1. Table 2.13.1 - Castes/Tribes codes in Land Records Caste Caste type name type Code 0100 Scheduled Castes (SC) 0200 Scheduled Tribes (ST) 0300 Other Backward Classes (OBC) 0400 Others/General 0500 Minorities 0600 Slum Dwellers (Assam & Jharkhand) 0700 Ex-Tea Garden Labourers (Assam) 0800 Ex-Servicemen 0900 Physically Challenged 9999 Not Available 62 NIC,DIT,GOI
