GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY IN INDIA: A CASE STUDY OF PULSES

Banaras Hindu University, 2018

India’s majority population still vegetarians. They depend on the vegetative source for daily required protein. Pulses are rich source of protein. India is largest producer and consumer of pulses world. The gross area under total pulses in India was in the range of 20-15 million ha per year over these two decades. The average production of total pulses was in the range of 11 million tonnes to 17 million tonnes per annum over the two decades. However, the yield of total pulses was increase over the year. The yield of total pulses was 578 kg/ha during 1990’s which increase to above 700 kg/ha during 2014-15. The compound growth rate of yield, area, production and value of output was significant positive growth trend exhibited for total pulses and majority pulses showed the same result. Instability was witnessed more for the value of output for total pulses and also same trend is fallowed for major pulses. The decomposition analysis shows that increase in production of pulses during the period 1990-2015 was mainly due to yield effect.

Area, Output and Productivity of Pulses in India

Social Science Journal for Advanced Research

India’s produce of cereal has been growing year by year and its one of the top manufacturers of different crops like rice, wheat, pulses, sugarcane and cotton. In 2019 India’s pulses production is 23.15 million tonnes which contribute about 24 percent of world pulses output. In the present paper area, output and productivity of pulses in India are investigated. The study is descriptive in nature and used secondary data from different government publications. The paper concludes that the increase in output is much higher than the area of pulses, whereas total pulses production is always affected by the size of holding.

Pulses in Punjab: growth rate and decomposition analysis

International Journal of Farm Sciences, 2020

Pulses are an important commodity group of crops that provides high quality protein supplementary cereal proteins for predominantly large vegetarian population of Punjab. The state is known for its contribution of wheat and paddy to the national pool but it lags behind in production of pulses. Keeping this in view present study was undertaken to explore the status of pulses in Punjab with the computation of compound annual growth rate (CAGR) and decomposition analysis. For this purpose the secondary data from year 1985-86 to 2017-18 were taken. The results showed that the CAGR of area and production of total pulses in state showed a significantly negative growth of 6.13 and 5.60 per cent per annum respectively but positive growth (0.61%) was observed in case of yield. The decomposition analysis concluded that area effect (99.48%) was major contributing factor for change in production of total pulses followed by yield effect (3.87%). But interaction effect was found negative (-3.35%). Thus there is need to break the monoculture of wheat and paddy crops and regain the area under pulses by considering their invaluable benefits by providing improved varieties of seeds, pest resistant techniques, extension support, insurance coverage and sustained remunerative market for the produce of pulse growers.

Growth Rate of Pulses in Eastern Uttar Pradesh a Zone-wise Analysis

Economic Affairs, 2021

Attempts are made in this paper to investigate the trend of pulses in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, as well as their instability and non-linear model. This time series data on pulses pertains to the period 1980-1981 to 2014-15 and includes information on the area, production, and productivity of pulses. Pulses have had negative growth in terms of area, production, and productivity in all three zones of Eastern Uttar Pradesh, namely, the North Eastern plain zone, the Eastern plain zone, and the Vindhyan zone. Since 1980-81, there has been a rise in the area and output of pulses in the Vindhyan zone, as seen by the percentage change. The Eastern plain zone has the most stable pulse crop in terms of instability

Pulses Production in India: Trend and Decomposition Analysis

Pulses is a major source of protein for a huge section of India particularly vegetarian population. In the present study, an attempt has been made to analyze the trend in production of total pulses crop in India for the period 1950-51 to 2014-15, i.e. past six decades in India. The gross area under total pulses in India was in the range of 19-25 million ha per year over these six decades. The average production of total pulses was in the range of 8 million tonnes to 15 million tonnes per annum over the 6 decades. However, the yield of total pulses was increase over the year. The yield of total pulses was 400 kg/ha during 1950's which increase to above 700 kg/ha during 2014-15. The compound growth rate of yield over six decades was positive and significant while area and production are non-significant. The decomposition analysis shows that increase in production of pulses during the period 1995-2014 was mainly due to yield effect. Since the supply of resources especially land is limited in nature, productivity of pulses should be boosted up by adoption of improved technologies like hybrid pulses cultivation and various technique of production to meet the future increased demand.

Effect of area and yield on the production of pulses in India

The Pharma Innovation Journal, 2019

Study attempted to examine the effect of area, yield and interaction between area and yield on the production also called as decomposition of pulses. Data of more than 25 years collected, classified into Period Ⅰ, Period Ⅱ and Period Ⅲ along with these period overall period also taken into consideration and analyzed for pulses found that Period Ⅰ (1990-00) masoor showed negative effect by yield, gram arhar total pulses showed negative effect by area and except gram all other pulses showed negative interaction effect on production. Period Ⅱ where horse gram showed negative effect of yield, masoor showed negative effect of area and interaction effect on production of pulses. In Period Ⅲ where all pulses showed positive effect in yield, except gram and moong all other pulses showed negative effect of area and all pulses indicated negative interaction effect except gram on production. For overall period negative effect of yield indicated by horse gram, negative area and interaction effect by moong and uad. Over all study concluded that yield effect is higher than area effect fallowed by interaction effect in pulse production. Keywords: pulses, decomposition, interaction effect

Performance of Pulses in Gujarat: A District level Assessment

Current Agriculture Research Journal, 2018

A research was conducted to assess the performance of pulses in one of the most important agriculture states of India. Performance of pulse crops was judged on two important parameters i.e. growth and instability. Compound growth rate was estimated by fitting non linear model to the area, production and productivity data for the period from 1970-71 to 2011-12. The fitted model was analyzed using Marquardt algorithm. Instability was assessed by employing Cuddy-Della Valle instability index. The results show that, the production of pulses increased in the state during the entire study period. The increase in pulse crops in the state was due to area expansion coupled with marginal improvement in yield up to the year 1990 after that, increase in production was mainly from improvement in the yield of pulse crops as area was stagnated. Area under pulse crops increased consistently up to year 1990 afterwards it was stagnated. Consistent improvement in the yield of pulses was a notable feat...

A Profile of Pulses Production in India: Facts, Trends and Opportunities

2002

complement cereals in both production and consumption. In the production process, pulses improve soil fertility, require less water than cereals and their rotation with cereals controls diseases and pests. On the consumption side, these are relatively cheaper sources of protein. Despite their importance, the per capita availability of pulses has reduced to almost half from about 60 gm/day in 1950-51 to 26 gm/day in 2000-01 as against the recommendation (43 gm/day) of the Indian Council of Medical Research. Such a trend was due to dismal production performance of pulses in comparison to population growth. With the acute shortfall in supply, the country was compelled to import pulses, which further restricted the growth of pulses production. The average import of pulses was 870 thousand tonnes per annum during the last five years ending 2001, with an extreme of 2,177 thousand tonnes in 2001-02. In value terms, it was approximately US$ 270 million for the former and a peak of US$ 886 million in 2001-02. Such a dismal scenario of pulses is attributed to the technological stagnation, supply side constraints, and unattendance to new niches for their production. These issues need to be assessed to raise their production. For this, it is prerequisite to diagnose the pulses economy to understand their performance temporally and spatially. The study is an attempt in this direction to (i) assess the historical pattern of pulses production in the country, (ii) identify key constraints in the production of pulses, and (iii) assess the prospects of and opportunities for pulses production in the country. The study postulated two hypotheses: (i) shortfall in domestic production of pulses led to new production niches, and (ii) technological stagnation resulted in poor performance of pulses in the country. METHODOLOGY The study is based on the state-level data which are mainly collated from secondary sources (Government of India, 2000 a and b; 2002). The historical performance of pulses has been assessed for all the major states. The study covered important pulses, which included chickpea, pigeonpea, blackgram, greengram and lentil. These pulses account for more than 80 per cent of total pulses area in the country. The study covered the last two decades from 1980-81 to 1999-2000. This

Changing Scenario of Pulses in India: An Analysis of its Growth and Instability in Eastern States

2017

Despite of deceleration in area and marginal rise in production due to higher productivity growth rate but gross decline in area and production is perceived to be a major threat towards future food and nutritional security of the country as well as the Eastern states. Framing strategies to overcome the present gloomy situation may be considered as a greatest ever challenge faced by policy makers as well as agricultural scientists. The strategies for stepping up domestic production must include development and adoption of modern technology including high yielding varieties, better monetary incentives to farmers to make pulses cultivation more remunerative than competitive crops, assured market which will motivate farmers to allocate more land for pulses cultivation. The minimum support price should be greater coordination with farm harvest price and market price. The Inputs constraints particularly quality seeds, fertilizers and lifesaving irrigation growth are not enough as compared to rice and wheat crops. Liberalized and subsidized import of pulses of India helps to meet demand-supply gaps, which have occurred because of stagnation in the area under cultivation, very slow growth in yield, poor increase in production and speedy increase in population. Ban on export and reexport of pulses make the closure of Indian pulses processing units. Problems of pulses economy can be solved with the increase the sources of production. Effective and continuous efforts are needed to increase the area under cultivation with better technological and logistic support.
