Description ABSTRACT
India ranks 1st in terms of area (3.47mha) and production (2.46mt) in the world with the contribution of 70% in area and 64% in production, while the productivity of arhar rank 6th in the world which is below the world average 905 kg/ha. In India Maharashtra rank 1st in terms of area (1.09mha) and production (0.92mt) which accounts 31.4 per cent of area and 37.29 per cent of production of the country. In terms of productivity Bihar rank 1st with 1513kg/ha while the all India average productivity stands with 711 kg/ha. Madhya Pradesh rank 4th in terms of area (0.36mha) and 2nd in terms of production (.31mt) in cultivation of arhar in India. The area and production of Arhar in Madhya Pradesh accounts 10.45% and 12.50% respectively of the area and production of arhar in country. In terms of productivity it ranks 4th in the country with 851 kg/ha. In Madhya Pradesh area(30.2 000ha) and production( 39.6 000t) of arhar in Narsinghpur district was found maximum, among the major arhar producing district of the state. The district ranks 2nd in productivity with 1313 kg/ha of yield, which is above the state average of 780 kg/ha. The specific objectives of the study were.
1. To analyze the trend and growth rates of area, production and productivity of Arhar in major districts of Madhya Pradesh.
2. To analyze the share of marketed surplus of Arhar in different districts of Madhya Pradesh
3. To estimate the marketable and marketed surplus in different size of farms
4. To determine the factors affecting marketed surplus of Arhar in different size of farms
The district comprises of six blocks which Narsinghpur, kareli, gotegaon (shridham), chawarpatha, saikheda and chichli. Out of which chawarpatha block occupied maximum area and production under Arhar in the district. Thus chawarpatha block was selected purposibily to adders the objectives of the present study.
From the selected block a list of villages of chawarpatha block was prepared and 2 villages namely kacharkona and dobhi were selected on the basis of highest area under arhar.
The required data were collected by the survey method with the help of pre-tested interview schedule. The primary data pertain to agricultural year 2011-12.
2. Conclusions:
Out of the net availability of produce per cent quantity retained was 22.6, 15.95 & 14.27 per cent under small, medium & large size of holdings. While marketable surplus was found to be 84.79, 92.99 & 94.01 per cent under the above mention categories. It means the quantity retained has inverse relationship & marketable surplus was found to have positive relationship with the size of holdings.
Marketed surplus was found to be less than marketable surplus by 6.87 & 70.6 per cent in case of medium & large farmer respectively. While it was found 4.66 per cent more in case of small farmer showing distress sell to overcome the current financial requirement or other unavoidable obligations. At overall level out of net availability of the produce (339 qtl.), the share of total retention, marketable surplus, marketed surplus & distress sell/next year stock was found to be 16.05, 92.30, 87.08 & 5.22 per cent, respectively.
