Varietal Performance of Groundnut Trend in Tamil Nadu: An Economic Analysis P.Anitha1, R. Senthil kumar2, T.Rajendran3, C.Muralidharan4Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Department of Social Sciences, Agricultural College and Research Institute (AC&RI), Killikulam, Vallanadu, Tamil Nadu, India – 628 252E-Mail: [email protected] Area, Production and Yield of groundnut growing districts like Cuddalore, Dharmapuri, Erode, Kancheepuram, Madurai, Perambalur, Pudukkottai, Salem, Thiruvannamalai, Thiruchirapalli, Vellore, Villupuram districts of Tamil Nadu are calculated. Secondary data for the period from (1998-99) to (2015-16).
Linear function used to compare Trend, Compound growth rate (CGR) and Decomposition analysis are estimated. Linear and Compound growth rate shows that decreasing trend in area & production followed by increasing trend in yield. In decomposition analysis, declining pattern is observed in Tamil Nadu and India due to yield effect and interaction effect.Key words: Groundnut, Trend, Compound growth rate, Decomposition analysis. INTRODUCTION Groundnut an oilseed crop in India, is referred as peanut, earthnut, monkey nut, goober peas, pygmy nuts (Chandra Mohan Misra, 2017).
Cultivation of groundnut in India, China, Nigeria, Sudan, USA etc., meant for oil and food purpose. Two third of the World Groundnut crop consumed in extracting oil and one third diverted for edible product Groundnut oil, Groundnut Chikki, Groundnut flour. Indian Ground nut accounts 40% of the world area and 30% output (Groundnut ” ICAR). Grown mainly tropical, sub-tropical and in warm temperate regions between 400N and 400S latitudes both Kharif and Rabi crop accounting 26.4 million hectares with a total production of 37.1 2 million metric t. The average productivity is 1400 kg/ha (IOPEPC, Mumbai). Maximum Area in India 70 lakh hectares and second in production 85 lakh metric t (IOPEPC, Mumbai).States where Groundnut is grown are Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. The other important northern states where it is grown are Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab.The average area, production and yield of India & Tamil Nadu are given in the annexure and the average area, production and yield of major groundnut growing districts of Tamil Nadu were also given.METHODOLOGYAnalysis namely linear growth rate, compound growth rate and decomposition analysis were calculated based on study made by Agashe DR et.al (2018), Gayathri (2018), Shruthi et.al (2017), Viswanatha Reddy K et.al (2017), Fasih ur rehman et.al (2011). Secondary data were collected from area and production statistics (Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare) from 1998-99 to 2015-16. Data regarding area, production and yield for major groundnut growing districts of Tamil Nadu were collected.1) Linear trend :The following linear regression equation was fitted to area, production and yield of groundnut,y=ax+by = Area/Production/Yield of groundnut in Tamil Nadu.a= Interceptb= Slope co-efficient2) Compound growth rate:Compound growth rates were estimated to know the growth pattern on area, production and yield of groundnut in different districts of Tamil Nadu.The growth model was specified as follows_Y=abt Where, Y = Dependent variable for which growth rate was estimated. a = Intercept. b = Regression coefficient. t = Time variable The compound growth rate (r) was obtained for the logarithmic form of the equation as below: logy=loga+tlogbThe per cent compound growth rate (r) was given as, r=[Antilog-1]—1003) Decomposition analysis : €P=A—€Y+Y—€A+€A—€Y€P = change in production€A = change in area€Y =change in yield A*€Y = yield effectY*€A = area effect€A*€Y= interaction effectRESULTS AND DISCUSSION:Table 1: Linear trend of major groundnut growing districts of Tamil Nadu:District Area Production Yielda b t a b t a b tCuddalore41428.18 -2135.39 -8.2885442.9-3076.26-3.8 1.430.165.14Dharmapuri59375.05-3533.29-5.0296768.95-5118.33-3.731.310.085.02Erode 57994.41-2620.28-7.05101957.59-4748.88-5.031.680.00040.04Kancheepuram42319.17-1919.91-9.24108472.41-3683.27-6.252.430.093.76Madurai 10180.67-501.43-6.2416372.19-752.52-4.941.490.032.93Perambalur46654.52-2923.67-10.7767982.69-3999.13-9.481.40.120.83Pudukkottai39215.11-1819.47-9.5250539.37-1714.7-4.230.90.0884.46Salem 51082.99-2143.65-6.0477344.59-2707.54-2.871.280.0462.79Thiruvannamalai108567.6-2676.51-3.59131468.03673.450.521.110.0664.24Thiruchirapalli23931.2-991.74-4.9237698.31-1161.98-3.291.450.0514.63Vellore 67797.96-1828.81-6.69103130.63-830.07-0.831.320.0663.79Villupuram110443.3-5088.29-5.58164218.35-3876.65-2.791.280.1013.44a= Intercept b= Slope co-efficient t=table valueLinear trend reported in table 1 indicates that Trend in area is found to be negative in selected districts of Tamil Nadu such as Cuddalore (-2135.39), Dharmapuri (-3533.29), Erode (-2620.28), Kanchipuram (-1919.91), Madurai (-501.43), Perambalur (-2923.67), Pudukkottai (-1819.47), Salem (-2143.65), Tiruvannamalai (-2676.51), Tiruchirappalli (-991.74), Vellore (-1828.81), Villupuram (-5088.29).The trend in production is found to positive only in Tiruvannamalai (673.45) and the other districts shows negative trend in Cuddalore (-3076.26), Dharmapuri (-5118.33), Erode (-4748.88), Kanchipuram (-3683.27), Madurai (-752.52), Perambalur(-3999.13), Pudukkottai (-1714.7), Salem (-2707.54), Tiruchirappalli (-1161.98), Vellore (-830.07), Villupuram (-3876.65).The yield shows positive trend Cuddalore (0.16), Dharmapuri (0.08),Erode (0.0004), Kanchipuram (0.09), Madurai (0.03), Perambalur(0.12), Pudukkottai (0.12), Salem (0.046), Tiruvannamalai (0.066), Tiruchirappalli (0.051), Vellore (0.066), Villupuram (0.10).Table 2: Significance of linear trendDistrict Area Production YieldCuddalore-8.29** -3.8** 5.14**Dharmapuri-5.02** -3.74** 5.02**Erode -7.05** -5.04** 0.04 NSKanchipuram-9.25** -6.25** 3.76**Madurai -6.25** -4.95** 2.93**Perambalur-10.77** -9.49** 0.83 NSPudukkottai-9.53** -4.23** 4.46**Salem -6.04** -2.87* 2.79*Tiruvannamalai-3.59** 0.52 NS 4.24**Tiruchirappalli-4.92** -3.29** 4.63**Vellore -6.69** -0.84NS 3.79**Villupuram-5.58** -2.79* 13.44**** Indicates significance at 1% * Indicates significance at 5% NS indicates not significantSignificance in linear trend reported in table 2 indicates that area, production and yield of groundnut in major groundnut growing districts of Tamil Nadu.

In the district of Dharmapuri and Villupuram it shows that growth is due to interaction effect.In period III (i.e, overall period), it shows that output growth due to yield effect in the districts of Cuddalore, Pudukkotai, Vellore, Villupuram and in Dharmapuri, Erode, Kanchipuram, Madurai, Salem, Tiruvannamalai, Trichirappalli growth is due to area effect. In Perambalur it shows interaction effect.CONCLUSIONSThe above results reveal that area and production shows that decreasing trend and decreasing growth rate. The yield shows that positive trend and increasing growth rate. In decomposition analysis, the change in production is mainly due to the area effect and small amount of change in yield effect and interaction effect. This decrease in the area of groundnut may be due to increase in population of the particular district which leads decrease in area. Decrease in production may be due to the insufficient finance and lack in use of improved technological process in Groundnut cultivation. This can be overcome by creating awareness among the farmers and providing them with proper training and other facilities. The top 3 major groundnut growing areas in Tamil Nadu are Tiruvannamalai, Villupuram and Vellore. The varieties which grown in these areas are TMV 2, TMV 7, TMV 10, VRI 3, VRI 4 5.
