Trend Analysis and Prediction of Cropped Area of Bangladesh

This systematic review is an effort to examine the trajectory of cropped area in Bangladesh using secondary data. This qualitative and descriptive analysis was conducted using numerous government's Statistical Yearbooks. The study revealed that single cropped area was shrinking, whereas multiple cropped area was flourishing. The expansion of areas was observed in both cereals and vegetables. Another significant finding was that a sharp growth was seen in both the net and gross cropped area. The cropping intensity was also gradually rising, which would allow practicing modern technologies to utilize existing and accredited areas. Further studies are required to understand the accredited farm areas in terms of policy-related factors. The study's results offer valuable insights for decision-makers in Bangladesh to preserve and utilize the farmland resources sustainably.
