Consider now the cultivators' perspective. The dilemma facing them is presented statistically in Table III.1 which shows the relationship between the rural population and land use in Bastar from 1931 to 1991. During this period the population trebled while the area under cultivation increased by only 80%. The period from 1931 to 1951 was a period of relative land surplus. As the population increased, the forest land was encroached upon. The period from 1951, by way of contrast, was one of relative land scarcity. Encroachable forest land became scarcer and the farm holdings per household became smaller as more people were forced to live on the same area of land.

(27 December 1958) One reason I could keep up such a satisfactory letter-relationship with her while in England was we could both verbalize our desired image of ourselves in relation to each other. (27 December 1958)
