Best answer

1. Not all the people engaged in agriculture have sufficient land for cultivation. 

2. The upper caste families own a majority of the land in the village. 

3. They have land extending over 10 hectares or more. 

4. Many families cultivate small plots of land less than 2 hectares. 

5. Cultivation of such plots doesn’t bring adequate income to the farmer family. 

6. Even these small plots were divided among sons when their father was dead.

7. Thus so many families of farmers cultivate such small plots.
