SERVICE CENTRE PLANNING for COMMUNICATION and SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT in AGRICULTURE : a CASE STUDY Mishra SP SERVICE CENTRE PLANNING FOR COMMUNICATION AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN AGRICULTURE : A CASE STUDY Mishra SP. and Mishra RP. Service centres having its specific locations in geographical space and gravity of services act as a very important tool in spatial modeling and shaping various socio-economic and politico-cultural activities of the surrounding region. One has to be very conscious in establishing any unit of function under which the concerned activities may provide maximum benefit at minimum cost. The communication and sustainable development in agriculture may be accounted as one of the very important issue of rural India. In modern technological age the communication media is playing a very important role in spreading the new agricultural techniques and diffusion of innovation. It may serve as unique contribution in a region having diverse terrain conditions where farmers of the remote villages are handicapped with the poor mobility. Thus the identification of service centres and their appropriate utilization in distribution and planning of communication systems along with various agricultural extension services may prove very fruitful. The present paper attempts to analyze and explain the above facts taking into account the Mirzapur District of Eastern U.P. as a case study. Mirzapur district (24o 34' N – 25o 16' N and 82o 05" E – 83o 11' E) consists of two varying nature of terrain conditions such as Ganga flood plain in the north and Vindhyan upland in the south. Geological and geomorphological phenomena in the district largely control the agricultural activities. Because of these facts, the settlements and infrastructural resources are unevenly distributed. The hierarchy of settlements and service centres has been identified by using composite index based on the three indices such as i) working population, ii) working force under tertiary activities and iii) centrality index. There are 1722 revenue villages and 4 urban centres. Amongst these settlements/centres, 84 service centres have been identified under the five tier hierarchic order such as first (1), second (3), third (10), fourth (31) and fifth (39). The distributions of these centres are also controlled by the physico-cultural factors of the district. The development blocks in the northern part have the facilities of larger number of service centres including almost all first (Mirzapur – Vindhyachal) and second (Chunar, Ahraura, Kachhawan) level centres. A deep relationship has been observed between the distribution of service centres and agricultural productivity and level of development. Therefore, the study also attempts to suggest a network of service centres for future growth and sustainable agricultural development in Mirzapur district.

The Census Tabulation Plan did not provide for sorting of scheduled castes population for areas smaller than a tehsil or urban tract and the request from the Uttar Pradesh Government came when the slip sorting had been finished and the Tabulation Offices closed. As the census slips are mixed up for the purposes of sorting in one lot for a tehsil or urban tract, collection of data regarding scheduled castes population by mohallas/~ards and villages would have involved enormous. labour and expense if sorting of the slips had been taken up afresh. Fortunately, however, a secondary census .record, viz. the National Citizens' Register, in which each slip has been copied, was available. By singular foresight it had been pre­ pared mol'lalla/ward-wise for urban areas and village-wise for rural areas. The required information has, therefore, been extracted from this record. 2. In the above circumstances there is a slight difference in the figures of population as arrived at by an earlier sorting of the slips and as now determined by counting from the National Citizens' Register. This difference has been accen tuated by an order passed by me during the later count from the National Register of Citizens as follows:- (i) Count Ahirwars of Farrukhabad District, Raidas and Bhagat as 'Chamars'.
