Data insights	The Sources of Irrigation dataset enables analysis of the relative contribution of different irrigation sources across districts and states. It helps identify regions dependent on specific irrigation systems and assess changes in irrigation practices over time. Policymakers can use this data to guide investments in irrigation infrastructure, groundwater management, and water conservation initiatives. Researchers can examine links between irrigation sources, cropping patterns, and agricultural productivity. The Sources of Irrigation dataset also supports evaluation of regional disparities in access to irrigation facilities.

Methodology	The Land Use Statistics data are compiled from official secondary sources, like annual administrative land records maintained at the village level by revenue under the nine fold land classification system which includes categories such as forests, non-agricultural land, fallow land, net sown area, cropped area, etc. The classification and utilization metrics are aggregated up to district or state levels and published periodically by DES. It’s likely supplemented by remote sensing or survey inputs in some sub-domains, though the primary data comes from official land records and administrative returns.
