| Article Name : | | | TRENDS IN AREA, PRODUCTION AND PRODUCTIVITY OF GROUNDNUT CROP IN INDIA | | Author Name : | | | K. Sivaiah | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-6143 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | India is the largest producer of oilseeds in the world and oilseed sector occupies an important position in the agricultural economy of the country. India ranks first in the production of groundnut, second in rapeseed-mustard, and fifth in soyabean. In the present study, an attempt has been made to know the trends in area, production and productivity of Groundnut in Andhra Pradesh State and Chittoor district. Compound growth rates of area, production and productivity were estimated by appropriate semi log trend equation. It evaluates the area, production and productivity of ground nut at country, state and district level. The present comparative compound growth rate of groundnut production in India, Andhra Pradesh and Chittoor district during the period 2000-01 to 2013-14 was analyzed. The area, production and productivity at India level, Andhra Pradesh and Chittoor district (2000-01 to 2013-14) were collected and presented. Further, the study conducted a comparative state level and district level components of the production. The analysis revealed that in the total production of groundnut varies due to the change in area under the crop as the yield and interaction very small. | | Keywords : | | |
