In India, land use is classified into several categories based on the duration of non-cultivation. 'Current fallow' refers to land left uncultivated for one agricultural year or less [1]. When cultivable land is left uncultivated for a period exceeding one year but less than five years, it is specifically labeled as 'fallow other than current fallow' [1]. This category represents land temporarily out of cultivation to recoup fertility or due to other constraints [3]. If the land remains uncultivated for more than five years, it is reclassified as 'culturable wasteland' [1]. In contrast, 'barren and wasteland' refers to land like deserts or hilly terrains that cannot be brought under cultivation with existing technology [1]. Therefore, the specific duration of more than one year but less than five years identifies the land as fallow other than current fallow.
