520 _aThe major objective is to find out the determinants of settlers' success and failure in terms of selected socio-economic criteria with reference to Khajura and Jamuni Resettlement Projects of Nepal. To evaluate the impact of resettlement projects in their surrounding areas, four target groups were studied: resettles, ex-servicemen, old population, and squatters. The findings show that the two types of government assisted settlers, namely ex-servicemen and resettles were the first and second most successful groups of settlers, mainly because of their higher earnings as well as easy accessibility to community services and facilities as compared to the old population and squatters. The old settlers were found to be the nearly unsuccessful group, owing to their lower earnings and lesser accessibility to community services and facilities as compared to the two types of Government assisted resettles. Finally, lowest earnings and poorest accessibility to community services and facilities made squatters the least successful or plainly unsuccessful group of settlers. The regression analysis employed to analyse the determinants of productivity indicated positive relationships of productivity with use of chemical fertilizer, size of household labor force, owner-operated land, and water reliability but a negative relationship with holding size. The simple correlation tests of hypotheses tendered positive correlations of earnings with settlers' satisfaction and indebtedness for productive investment. The same kind of relationship was found between settlers' satisfaction and participation in social activities, and ownership of household assets. settlers' indebtedness for consumption and attitudes towards out-migration were negatively correlated with earnings and satisfaction, respectively. Recommendations for planning focus on area development with specific emphasis on raising settlers' level of earnings and provision of social services and facilities.
