Based on this method crops- fruits, cotton, bajra and paddy are plays major role in the district because these are stands in first position in the ranking of crops. Out of the four taluks of Chamarajanagara district in 2005-06 Gundlupet taluk having monoculture crop combination,i.e. cotton, Chamarajanagara and Kollegala taluk having 2 crop combination i.e.,fruits+jowar, maize+bajra respectively and Yelandur taluk has 3 crop combinations i.e., Sugarcane+paddy+ maize. In 2014-15 Kollegala taluk having monoculture crop combination, i.e. bajra, Chamarajanagara and Gundlupet taluk having 2 crop combination i.e., fruits+jowar, cotton +vegetable respectively and Yelandur taluk has 3 crop combinations i.e., paddy +Sugarcane+fruits.
