A Study on impact of urbanization on Agriculture and Urban sprawl - Special reference to Chidambaram Town Dr. G. Vedanthadesikan Sr.Assistant Professor, Centre for Rural Development, (On deputation to Rural Development Wing, Directorate of Distance Education, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar 608 002 U. Mathivanan Assistant Professor, Economics Wing, Directorate of Distance Education, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar 608 002 Introduction Urbanization happens because of the increase in the extent and density of urban areas. The density of population in urban areas increases because of the migration of people from less industrialized regions to more industrialized areas. Causes of urbanization Urbanization usually occurs when people move from villages to cities to settle, in hope of a higher standard of living. This usually takes place in developing countries. In rural areas, people become victims of unpredictable weather conditions such as drought and floods, which can adversely affect their livelihood. Consequently many farmers move to cities in search of a better life. This can be seen in Karnataka as well where farmers from Raichur, Gulbarga districts which are drought-stricken areas, migrate to Bangalore to escape poverty. Cities in contrast, offer opportunities of high living and are known to be places where wealth and money are centralized. Most industries and educational institutions are located in cities whereas there are limited opportunities within rural areas. This further contributes to migration to cities. But in the context of towns due to urbanization the adjacent agricultural areas are affected and the urban sprawl further deteriorated the town and the villages. Selection of the study area and the samples For the purpose of this study Chidambaram Town is divided into three circles. The first circle comprises four sannathi streets and four car streets. Second circle comprises the areas next to the car streets but before the extension areas. The third circle comprises the extension areas. From the four sides of the extension area 98 agricultural respondents were selected randomly who are affected by the urbanization. Now, the third circle (extension area) in the study area was previously the agricultural fields. Normally, the extension of human settlements affects the agricultural activities. For the past 15 to 20 years, the human settlements rapidly replaced the agriculture in all the four fields of the study area. The data of climate change at cuddalore district, particularly Chidambaram taluk is entirely different one. This taluk faced heavy flood and storm and or heavy drought. Authentic information from meteorological department pointed out that for the past ten years, this taluk received the rainfall not only during the monsoon and also during winter, particularly at the end of December and January. For example, during October and November www.theinternationaljournal.org > RJEBS: Volume: 02, Number: 06, April-2013 Page 111
