Crop Survey of HALABARGA Hobli of Bhalki Taluk of Bidar District of Karnataka for Kharif Season 2018-19

The dataset includes crop survey observations collected across villages and taluks, capturing crop extent, crop types, geographic coordinates, and administrative hierarchy such as district, taluk, hobli, and village. It also includes temporal fields like survey date, month, week, and agricultural year, enabling seasonal and longitudinal agricultural analysis.

Data Quality

The dataset has consistent formatting for geographic and administrative fields with no missing values in key identifiers. However, several columns such as Cropname, Month, and Weekname have significant missing values. The Image_url field is entirely empty. Crop extent is stored in a non-standard string format, which requires preprocessing for numerical analysis.

Use Cases

Agricultural monitoring, crop distribution analysis, geospatial analytics, seasonal trend analysis, rural planning, and policy decision-making.

Limitations

Crop extent is not directly usable for quantitative analysis without transformation. Missing values in crop names and temporal breakdown fields reduce analytical completeness. The dataset appears regionally constrained and may not generalize broadly.

Methodology

The dataset was likely compiled through field-based agricultural surveys combined with GPS data collection, where surveyors recorded crop details along with administrative and temporal metadata.
