Description In this study, the economic analysis of agricultural transformation
process in Karnataka is analyzed using Factor Analysis, Markov Chain
Analysis and Marketable surplus. The study was based on both primary
and secondary data wherein primary data has been collected from the
farmers and secondary data obtained from Village Dynamic Study in
South Asia from ICRISAT. The results revealed that, in Bijapur district
farmers have transformed from technology and market lead to surface
irrigation lead agriculture while in the case of Tumkur district, farmers
transformed from cultivation of diversified low value crops to irrigated
high value crops. In Kappanimbargi, The probability of shift from the
vegetables to pulses and oilseeds is 0.86. In Markabbinahalli, the
probability of shift from sorghum and bajra to redgram is substantial (1).
In Tharati, the probability of moving from Acorus calamus to
chrysanthemum is substantial (0.93) while in the case of
Belladamadagu, transition from cereals and millets to pulses and
oilseeds as 1.00 and the volume of Milk collected by the Dairy increased
from 180 litres per day in 2000 to 500 litres per day in 2010, an increase
of 17.8 percent per year. In Bijapur district; the marketable surplus was
low (30 %) in the case of sorghum and bajra crop while in Tumkur
district it was low (38 %) for ragi crop. The development programs in
Bijapur district are providing higher benefit of 15 % (Rs.9170) per family
than that of Rs.7982 received per family in Tumkur district. The research
study found that, the sample households have been accessing
agricultural information from word of mouth (40 %) followed by
progressive farmers, input dealers and State Raitha Samparka Kendra.
In Tharati, by selling water for agriculture purpose, the groundwater
sellers realized higher net returns (Rs. 46883) which is 48 % compared
to the farmers buying irrigation water for chrysanthemum cultivation
(Rs.31620) and the groundwater buyer paid 1/3rd of produce income to
groundwater seller (Rs.22200).
