An Economic Analysis of Indian Pulses Sector - A Case Study of Red Gram
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 5
Abstract
India ranks first in world’s pulses production and consumption. Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka are major producers of pulses which accounted for 80 per cent of total production in the country. The National Food Security Mission was implemented to increase the production of pulses by 2 Mt annually. Policy Analysis Matrix was formulated to find the social and private profitability and export competitiveness of pulses in India during the triennium ending 2015-16. The results showed that the domestic wholesale price of red gram was higher than the international market price. Export of red gram was discouraged under the policy circumstances. DRC value indicates that the domestic resources are effectively utilized by the farmers.
