Income levels on monthly basis
A marked variation was noted among states with respect to the average monthly household
income of agricultural households.
The agricultural households in states like Punjab (₹
23,133), followed by Haryana (₹ 18,496) and Kerala (₹ 16,927) reported maximum levels of income which is indicative of the fact that this sector is making a sizeable contribution to
the State’s economy. On the other hand, agricultural households from states like Jharkhand
(₹ 6,991), Andhra Pradesh (₹ 6,920) and Uttar Pradesh (₹ 6,668) reported very low average
monthly incomes of less than ₹ 7,000 per household indicating towards the dismal scenario
of agriculture in these states.
