Abstract: A study was carried out in Puri district of Odisha. Multi stage and proportionate stratified random sampling technique was followed to select the sample size of 142 farmers. The study reveals that the nature of use of livestock produce was 65%, Control on the land resource was 85% and no full control on labour, usefulness of Land was 100%, Knowledge on efficient use of saving 72%, timely availability of crop produce was 33%, 72.6% agricultural produce were conserved for future use and farmers’ own decision on animal produce was 68%. The resource use pattern of the farmers can be used for identifying the availability of resources to the farmers and the resources delivery to the farmers can be improved for development of agriculture in the region.
