This paper analyzes changes in cropping pattern, area, production, yield, and growth performance of major crops in Uttarkashi district over the period 2012–13 to 2021–22. Using secondary data, trends in total and irrigated area, crop-wise distribution, production, and yield were examined, along with annual growth rates and compound annual growth rates (CAGR) to assess both short-term variability and long-term structural change. The results reveal a gradual decline in total cultivated and irrigated area, indicating increasing pressure on land and water resources. Cereals, particularly paddy and wheat, continue to dominate production; however, their long-term growth remains stagnant or slightly negative. In contrast, pulses especially during the kharif season exhibit positive CAGR, reflecting a slow shift toward crop diversification. Yield improvements across crop groups are modest, suggesting limited technological advancement. High inter-annual fluctuations further highlight the vulnerability of agriculture to climatic variability. Overall, the findings indicate that agricultural transformation in Uttarkashi has been slow and uneven, underscoring the need for targeted interventions to enhance irrigation efficiency, promote climate-resilient technologies, and support diversification toward pulses and oilseeds for sustainable agricultural development.
