(i) The landholdings are very small in India due to the fact of law of inheritance. The farming land gets divided and sub-divided. The holdings become smaller with each generation as it passes with division from fathers to their sons. (ii) Two methods are: 1. Consolidation of landholding, which means reallocation of holdings which are fragmented due to law of inheritance. This has taken place in Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. 2.
