In relation to the manresource relationship, this paper highlights the status of caloric availability in one of the most backward regions of West Bengal in 2016. Being dependent on agriculture as an economic activity, Jhargram Subdivision of Paschim Medinipur has high population growth rate and associated negative results. In this set up it has been found that the available calorie is greatly controlled by calorie from agriculture. The north western part of Jhargram Subdivision shows low caloric consumption than its south eastern part.
