- ItemThe unit farm approach of farm planning in Ceylon: A critique(University of Ceylon, 1971) Amerasinghe, NihalThe unit farm approach or technique or farm planning has been adopted (consciously or unconsciously) to indicate the feasibility of various farm plans and other important aspects of land settlement to be under-taken under the Mahaweli diversion project in Ceylon. This approach or farm planning is inherently embodied in the "100 acre pilot project" initiated at the Maha Illupalluma Dry Zone Research Station in 1970 in order to provide the necessary economic and technical information for planning future land settlement in Ceylon under the Mahaweli project. This technique of farm planning on which future farming in Ceylon is to be based is not a new tool in the kit of the agricultural economist and has been used intermittently since 1946. It has had a chequered history as a farm planning tool due to its many limitations and has been superseded by a host of more refined farm planning techniques. The 0bject of this paper is to discuss the potentials and limitations of this technique in providing the necessary information for effective farm planning and settlement in Ceylon. An alternative approach will be suggested in the light of the limitations of the unit farm approach in providing the information necessary for effective farm planning in Ceylon.
