Importance of agro-eco zonation:

• It provides the basis for understanding agricultural needs, possibilities, and limitations in better ways. By understanding the natural factors, the maintenance and promotion of agriculture become easy and efficient.
• A spatial land use and land cover components covering forest, protected areas, irrigated areas, population distribution, density land required for habitation, infrastructure, estimates of cropland, grazing land, and the sparsely vegetated or barren land and farming system can be easy.
• It helps in making a standardization framework for the characterization of soil, terrains, and climatic conditions relevant to agricultural production and the identification of areas with special climate, soil, and terrain constraints to rain-fed crop production.
• For management of agricultural activities.
• For a high rate of success of crops.
• For calculating the potential yield in that zone.
• Estimating land population supporting capacity and for multiple criteria and optimization of resources like land.
• Helps in the inventory of land utilization types.
