1 = Area Equipped for Irrigation
2 = Earthtrends Irrigated Area
3 = Represents intensity of irrigation, computed based on multiplying full pixel area with average irrigated area fractions (IAF) from: (a) High resolution imagery (HRI) and (b) sub-pixel decoposition techniques
4 = It is the nearest equivalent to the FAO's equipped area for irrigation computed based on multiplying full pixel area with average irrigated area fractions from: (a) High resolution imagery (HRI) + fallow and (b) Google Earth Estimates (GEE).
5 = Source: Indiastats (www.indiastat.com)
6 = Total area available for rainfed croplands (TAAR) - TAAR is the area available for rainfed croplands at any given point of time. It includes area actually cultivated and dependant on rainfall plus area that is left fallow.
7 = Total area available for Croplands (TAAC) - TAAC is the sum of the available areas from irrigated (TAAI) plus rainfed (TAAR).

Note: When state/district areas are reported by GIAM 500 m/ GIAM 10 Km, please note that these are based on Global Irrigated Area Fractions. Further refinement of area is possible with local irrigated area fractions.
