| Abstract/Description: | The study was undertaken to examine the cost and returns and efficiency issues in rice cultivation under groundwater irrigation in different regions of Indo-Gangetic plains of India using primary data collected from 1172 randomly selected farmers. A deterministic frontier model namely Data Envelopment Analysis was used in the estimation of farm level efficiencies in rice production. The farm business analysis of rice cultivation showed that the returns were impressive in Trans-Gangetic plains, moderate in Upper and low in Middle and Lower-Gangetic plains. The economic efficiencies of rice farms were found to be low but highly varied spatially. The resource use efficiency for irrigation was poor in all the regions especially under electric operated tubewells. Measures such as educating the farmers regarding better utilization of inputs and rationalization of electricity tariff for irrigation will help to improve farm level efficiencies in rice cultivation. |
