Description The study was exclusively based on secondary data. The data related to area, production and
yield of rice, wheat and total foodgrains in Haryana and India for the years 1966-67 to 2012-13 were
collected from Statistical Abstract of Haryana, Statistical Abstract of India and Agricultural Situation
in India. Keeping in view the importance of rice, wheat and total foodgrains in Haryana and India, the
study was planned (i) To examine the trend and instability in area, production and productivity of rice,
wheat and total foodgrains in Haryana and India and (ii) To compute the growth rates of area,
production and productivity of rice, wheat and total foodgrains in Haryana and India. The study
revealed positive trends in area, production and yield of rice, wheat and total foodgrains for both
Haryana and India. The production of rice in Haryana and India increased mainly due to increase in
area whereas for wheat production, the contributions of area and yield are comparable. For total
foodgrains production yield is mainly responsible. Similar results are obtained on triennium bases.
Area, production and yield of rice crop have shown positive growth rates in Haryana during entire
study period and five sub-periods and except for the yield in Period- V. The overall trend in production
of rice crop for India was found to be similar to that of Haryana, yield has shown positive growth rates
during the entire study period and five sub-periods while negative growth rates were observed in area
under the rice crop during Period- IV and V. For wheat crop, all the three aspects (i.e. area, production
and yield) have shown positive growth rates in Haryana while in case of India, positive growth rates
were observed for both area and production except in Period- IV. Trend of yield in India was similar to
that of Haryana. In Haryana, area, production and yield have shown positive growth rates for total
foodgrains in all the periods and the overall period except for area in Period-III, IV and V and the
overall period. In case of India positive growth rates were obtained for production and yield of total
foodgrains while area has shown negative trend in Periods III, IV, V and entire period under study. The
production of rice in Haryana and India increased mainly due to increase in area whereas for
production of wheat, the contribution of area and yield are comparable. For total foodgrains production,
the yield was found to be mainly responsible for both at the state level and at country level.
