Description
This study explores the geographical assessment of oil seed crop production in Yenanchaung
Township, Magway Region, Myanmar, located in the country’s central dry zone. Oil seed crops
such as groundnut, sesame, and sunflower dominate local agriculture and play a critical role in
sustaining rural livelihoods and contributing to the regional economy. The research focuses on
identifying the physical and human geographical factors that shape oil seed cultivation,
particularly climate variability, soil conditions, and topography. Employing a combination of field
surveys, GIS-based spatial mapping, and statistical correlation analysis between climatic
parameters and crop yields, the study reveals that erratic rainfall, high temperatures, and declining
soil fertility significantly affect production patterns. On the human side, smallholder dependence,
limited irrigation, and socio-economic constraints further challenge sustainability. Despite these
difficulties, the study highlights opportunities for improvement through climate-smart agriculture,
soil conservation techniques, irrigation development, and policy support. By adopting a place
based geographical approach, this research provides a comprehensive understanding of the spatial
and environmental dynamics of oil seed crop production in Yenanchaung Township. The findings
offer valuable insights for promoting sustainable agricultural practices in Myanmar’s dry zone.
