摘要：The purpose of this study is to examine crop diversification and crop concentration in Baluchistan, Pakistan during seven different periods of four years spells between1981 and 2009. The same has been pursued through measuring Crop Concentration Index (CCI) and Theil’s / Shannon’s Crop Diversification. The Herfindahl’s index (also called Simpson index) and Theil’s index (also called Shannon index) have been used for crop diversification. The Location Quotient measure has been used to determine crop concentration. Results show that similarities have been found in both (Herfindahl’s and Theil’s) diversification indices. The study reveals that cropping intensity is negatively and crop yield positively correlated with each other.
