Abstract:
The primary objective of this study to examine the growth rate, variability and contributing factors of output growth in acreage, production and yield of isabgol in leading districts Rajasthan as well as the state as a whole. This study was purely based on secondary time series data. The study period was considered from 2010-11 to 2023-24. The data was analysed using the exponential growth model, Cuddy-Della Valle instability index and decomposition analysis to fulfil the objectives of the study. The findings of study indicated that highest growth rates were found in the production (31.90%)and area (29.65%) of Bikaner district. The lowest growth rate was seen in production (12.98%) and area (11.21%) of Chittorgarh district. The upmost instability in production (73.22%) and area (64.93%) was found in Bikaner and Chittorgarh districts respectively. The major contributor to expand the output of isabgol in all selected districts was expanded in area under the crop. Varietal development could be major contributor to enhance the output and increase international demand.
