Abstract
Regional planning primarily aims at reducing the disparity in socio-economic status of the people, and the wide gulf between urban and rural life. A planning region or an area comprises of many complex structures and behavioural phenomena which more or less change with time due to some external forces acting upon or the internal forces acting within the regional system. While planning for the development of a region, the well-known phenomena and structures within the regional system can be considered. Further, the sustainable economic development of a region can only be achieved by ensuring the optimum utilization of resources. This requires plausible policy planning guidelines and feasible development plan, for which thorough grassroots level investigation is essential. In this present investigation, an attempt has been made to evolve a set of plausible policy guideline and recommendations for the sustainable economic development of Patna region, by considering it as a system, and considering the important control parameters of its subsystems.

Result and discussion In this present investigation, various control parameters of different subsystems of the system, which influence the functions of the system largely, which are population, per capita income, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), GDP in Primary Sector, GDP in Secondary Sector, GDP in Tertiary Sector, GDP in agricultural and allied sector, and GDP in Industrial Sector, have been considered for forecasting their value up to 2031 for strategic planning
The economic development of a region can be achieved by ensuring the sustainable agricultural growth
Summary
Agriculture sector occupies the centre stage in shaping India’s socio-economic status. The economy of the second most populous country in the world is inextricably linked to the pulse of its agricultural success or failure. India has witnessed a significant increase in food grain production after green revolution, oilseeds production after yellow revolution, milk production after white revolution, fish production after blue revolution, and fruits and vegetables production after golden revolution, since independence. After nearly three and half decades in the post-green revolution period, the country still faces crisis each year in trying to meet the burgeoning demand for food by its growing population. The need of research and development in the field of agriculture for increasing the application of frontier technologies (i.e. information technology application in agriculture, precision farming, post-harvest technologies, mechanized farming and organic farming) cannot be denied, which is a feasible
