The epistemological position American and continental school of thought can be identified based on antithesis between logic and rhetoric, analysis and interpretation, conceptual clarification and vision of the world. In this context, an attempt has been made in this paper to present agrarian history of a local setting (I.E. Burdwan district of West Bengal) agriculture in the Mughal period faded in the late colonial era and eventually reduced to a state of agrarian impasse in the post-independence period. Climatic analysis reveals a trend break in the yield level of most of the crops in the district of Burdwan n the early 1980s especially after implementation of land reform measures and expansion of irrigation faculties. Changing cropping pattern in favour of boro rice cultivation ( at the cost of aus and aman rice) was notable feature in the ‘rice bowl’ of the state (i.e. the district of Burdwan)- Reproduced
