Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
In this paper, investigation has been made to analyse the marketable and marketed surpluses of mustard in Morar block of Gwalior district (Madhya Pradesh). Study revealed that the total production generated by large, medium and small farmers was 1195.9 quintals, 936.1 quintals and 205.1 quintals respectively. The total household requirement under different categories was found to be 120 quintal for large farmers, 104.7 quintal for medium farmers and 18.35 quintal for small farmers. Thus the marketable surplus generated was 1075.9 quintals by large farmers, 831.38 quintals by medium farmers and 186.75 quintals by small farmers. Thus the marketed surplus generated was 1026(86.72%) quintals by large farmers, 852.63 quintals (92.11%) by medium farmers and 198 quintals (97.53%) by small farmers. Thus, the study of marketed and marketable surplus in the economic system is more important than the study of increase in agricultural production so as to find ways to increase the tempo of marketed and marketable surplus.
