GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF MAJOR SPICES IN GUJARAT STATE
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
The study examines growth performance of major spice crops in Gujarat state for different districts. The study reveals that growth performance of major spice crops was found to be significant increase in production (11.35% / annum) and yield (3.82% / annum) in Gujarat during 1994-95 to 2012-13. The area under spices increased at the highest rate (10.37%/ annum) in Saurashtra region while the highest rate of increase in production (22.95 % / annum) and yield (14.33%/ annum) was observed in South Gujarat region. The lowest indices of instability of area (15.42) and production showed its stability in traditionally spices grown region of North Gujarat. The district of Porbandar, Dang and Narmada registered the highest rate of growth, respectively in area, production and yield of species. The negative and significant growth of productivity of spices, in Junagadh and Porbandar districts and non significant growth in Saurashtra region shows the matter of concern for the region.
