        abstract = {The purpose of this article is to assess the level of agricultural development in Dharwad district using the Z score technique, which had 15 variables. Agriculture's progress should be assessed not only in terms of output, but also in terms of inputs like fertilizers, improved seed varieties, and irrigation. Agriculture development indicates the effectiveness of a region's agricultural system. Dharwad district is situated in the northwestern part of Karnataka state. It comprises 4263 square kilometers and is surrounded by Belgaum District in the north, Haveri District in the south, Gadag District in the east, and Uttara Kannada District in the southwest. The main objective of this article is to determine the high and low levels of agricultural development in regions. Navalgunda & Alnavar talukas have good facilitated by irrigation, agriculture land holdings, fertilizer consumption, and rainfall. Annigeri, Dharwad, Hubballi & Kalgatagi talukas are need improve proper cropping techniques, appropriate use of agriculture land, & adopt rainwater harvesting techniques. Hubbali Nagara is an urban area which focused on secondary and tertiary economic activities, resulting in a continuous loss of agricultural land and Kundagla taluka's poor irrigation management can lead to a variety of issues such as water loss, water quality degradation, crop failure, soil pollution, and so on.},
