Indigenous land use of Ziro valley has multi-dimensional aspects. Traditional ways of agricultural cultivations are not affected by the ever growing science and technology. People are more believed in their way of cultivation with simple techniques of production rather than going for modern technology, high yielding varieties and chemical fertilizers in the arena of commercialization of crops in the growing market. The farmers prefer medium variety of paddy over early and late varieties. Moreover, farmer realizes the benefits of fish culture in paddy field while growing millet on dyke simultaneously. The paper evaluates the traditional way of paddy-cum-fish culture in the midst of modernity of Ziro valley.
