    Land in the Elachivazhi Micro watershed was classified into four capability classes: Class I land has very good cultivability with no farming difficulties. Class II land is also good but may need erosion protection, drainage improvement, and irrigation conservation. Class III land covers 125 hectares that is moderately good but prone to flooding and drought; it requires attention to erosion control and irrigation/drainage. Class IV land has some cultivation limitations and includes 95 hectares that can grow crops like corn, coconut, and cashew with management practices.
