ABSTRACT
Evolution and changes are the pathways for any development, decadence, or reconstruction and Indian agriculture is no exception. We are now at the crossroad of stagnation and reinvention, growth and distribution, utopia and dystopia. The existing sociology of Indian agriculture has started generating mores scope and responsibilities for organising researches in the domain of institutional contradiction, policy inadequacy, productivity along with sustainability and up scaling disillusionment and dissonance in the process and structure of family pursuits. We are oscillating between buffer production and starvation that is adding uncertainties in the system in turn. The present study has dealt with the possible reasons and perceptions after and on the dissonance, disillusionment and decadence of the agricultural production process and its sociological balances. Among the selected variables for the study in predicting Dissonance and Disillusionment (Y1), statistical analysis elicits the fact that total annual income (X9), Per capita annual income (X10), scientific orientation (X13), economic motivation (X16) etc. are mostly responsible. These empirical study merits a policy framework at the grassroots level so that the farmers can reengineer their life cycle based on promised future and experienced benefits.
Key words :
