DEMOGRAPHIC-CHANGES IN DIFFERENT AGROCLIMATIC REGIONS OF RAJASTHAN

This research paper establishes the relationship between spatial distr ibution of population with its demographic characteristics. Based on 1 991 primary population census, significant variations exist in the den sity of population and population growth rate in different agro-climat ic regions, viz., arid, transitional between arid and semi-arid, semi- arid, subhumid and humid regions. Proportion of main workers and margi nal workers to total population in different agro-climatic regions has also been dealt with. Main findings of some demograpic characteristic s in the agro-climatic regions are depicted through two tables and thr ee maps at 1:25,000,00 scale.
