Data were related to cropping pattern and livestock pattern as well as socio-economic determinants.

It means that addition of one livestock could cause to increase Rs 9837.01 of gross income on irrigated farm. In next the order, regression coefficient of land holding was 7086.63. It means that addition of one hectare of land holding, would lead to increase Rs 7086.63 on irrigated farm. On the contrary, distance of farm from village showed regression coefficient of-9964.52, which was negatively significant. If addition of one kilometer distance to existence distance, it could adversely affect gross income of Rs 9964.52 on irrigated farm.
