This paper aims at conducting a study on recent developments of floriculture industry in India, particularly in terms of production of cut flowers and the growth of the industry and its trade with the world. Primary focus is on the flowers (loose as well as cut flowers) that are grown commercially. Time series data covering a period of last two decades have been used for the study. The paper also reports on the global trade scenario for floricultural products, indicating the major trading countries and their trade. It is observed that during the period the production of both the loose and cut flowers have been growing at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 9.92% and 26.66%, respectively. However, the first decade did not see substantial growth in export of floricultural products from India. During the last decade, export increased at a CAGR of 4.33%. India’s share of global floriculture trade at present is only about 0.6%.

A study was carried out to assess the trend of area, production, productivity and supply of potato in Kavre district, Nepal. The time-series data (1999/00 to 2017/18) were collected from the “Statistical Information on Nepalese Agriculture” published yearly by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, Nepal and the data of potato (red and white) supply from Kavre to Kalimati wholesale market from 2000/01 to 2019/20 was collected from the official website of Kalimati market. The data were entered and analyzed using Microsoft Excel and XLSTAT. Mann-Kendall test (M-K) and Sen’s slope method were used for trend analysis. The results showed that the potato cultivation area increased by 341.786 ha/year, production increased by 8323.933 Mt/year and productivity increased by 0.231 Mt/ha/year from 1999/00 to 2017/18. Similarly, the red potato supply from Kavre to the Kalimati market increased by 13.412 Mt/year and the white potato supply decreased by 234.174 Mt/year during the period from 2000/01 to 2019/20. The instability analysis showed 34.41%, 41.36% and 11.16%. coefficient of variation for area, production and productivity while red potato and white potato supply showed 11.64% and 107.86% variation. The average annual growth rates for area, production and productivity of potato were 6.02%, 8.83% and 2.43%, respectively. Similarly, growth rate of red potato supply was 3.91% per annum while white potato supply decreased at the compound annual growth rate of 19.61%. Thus, an increasing trend of area, production and productivity and supply of potato along with a positive growth rate for the potato can be seen in the Kavre district.

On 9 October 2018, Baba Ramdev announced that Patanjali Ayurved Limited (PAL) would become the largest Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) organization in the world by 2025 (ET Bureau, 2018). PAL had created high visibility and awareness about its brands among consumers using the herbal and wellness positioning. The CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 100 per cent since the last 4 years was an indicator of preference of herbal products by the consumers (Malviya & Bhushan, 2018). However, the competitors were launching various herbal product ranges to counter PAL. Baba Ramdev knew that consumer ‘trust’ in the brand building of herbal products was crucial. He was exploring various options for keeping the present trust intact.

<p>This article attempts to estimate annual growth rate of religious tourist to total tourist arrival ratio in Nepal, test the significance of annual growth rate of this ratio and evaluate the presence of auto-correlation among error terms using time series data of the ratio of religious tourist to total tourist arrival in Nepal from 1992 to 2010. The calculation of t-statistic exhibits that the growth rate of religious tourist to total tourist arrival ratio is significant. The D-W test shows that there is existence of positive auto- correlation among error terms. To remove the auto-correlation, the transformed variables have been used to estimate transformed equation of straight line and then it is found that there is no existence of auto-correlation among error terms after transforming the original data. </p><p><strong>Economic Literature,</strong> Vol. XI (20-25), June 2013 </p>

This paper analyses the trends and directions of exports and imports of Canada using the time series data for the period 1981 to 2014. Instantaneous and compound growth rates are calculated by using the log-linear regression model in conjunction with an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model for forecasting future exports and imports. The results of this study show that there is an increasing trend for both exports and imports. As far as the growth rates are concerned, the two estimated log-linear models depict a comprehensive annual picture of Canadian merchandise trade. The exports grow at an instantaneous rate of 4.46% and at a slightly higher than compound annual growth rate of 4.6%. The overall growth rate of imports is 5.41% and compound annual growth rate is 5.27%. The compound growth rate is marginally higher than the instantaneous growth rate.The results of the Johansen test for analyzing the long-run relationship between export, import and GDP have further demonstrated that the variables are co-integrated, and have established a long-run association among them.

Abstract The earth as a planet supports human life, living and activities that attract extensive and intensive socioeconomic influences on the environment and the economy. Such activities like Infrastructures development exert increasing and divers environmental quality concerns and hence on economic growth. While these variables appear interrelated due to many factors including population growth, urbanization, industrialization etc., however, the nature of the interrelationship is not largely known especially in Nigeria. This study therefore investigated and examine their relationship using time series data between 1990-2019 by adopting Co-Integration estimation technique through the Bound Test approach of Auto Regressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) method, using percentage share of Building and Construction Sector (BCS) of GDP, Carbon dioxide percentage of fuel combustion (CTE), annual growth rate of Agriculture (AFF), population growth, GDP growth rate etc. as variables. The study revealed that infrastructures development, environmental quality explains economic growth and they all have both short and long run relationship while specifically population growth and AFF variables are positively significant to economic growth. The finding evidences the significance of the relationship and consequently recommended new roles for infrastructure sets and production processes that consider environmental quality mindsets to achieve positive green economic growth outcomes in Nigeria.JEL Classification: Q5, O18, O44

Vegetable plays key role in providing nutrition to human body. Vegetables are major sources of vitamins, minerals, fiber, iron, calcium etc. Potato is the highest yielding vegetable in the world as well as in India. It is one of the significant vegetables of Indian consumer’s food basket. Despite of high production, due to seasonal production and perishable nature market arrival and price are highly volatile in nature. So, the present study was conducted with an intension to study the trend in arrival and price of potato in four major markets in India along with their Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) and seasonality and variability associated with them. The study is based on secondary data collected from www.agmarknet.gov.in. Data was collected for the period March 2009 to March 2019, and the analysis was done based on that. Linear trend in arrival and nominal prices were found to be positive across the markets, however for real prices, it was found negative except Bangalore (` 5.50/q per annum). CAGR for arrival in all the four markets were found positive, and for real prices it was negative in most of the months. The main season of arrival of potato in different markets was December to March, and for prices index is highest during the off season. Variability in arrival is highest in Agra market and in price variability is highest in Azadpur market.

Vegetables are important constituents of Indian agriculture and nutritional security. Along with health benefits, vegetables help in flourishing countries economy, as it provides a great opportunity for income and employment generation for the farming sector. The study has an objective to understand the extent of growth each vegetable experiencing and to derive the major factor for the growth in Karnataka, utilizing time-series data. The total area showed an increasing trend over the period with about 40 % increase in a span of two decades. However, figures for increased production were more appealing than its area, as it has shown 60 % increase. Total production of vegetables in Karnataka has increased from 42 lakh tonnes in 1998-99 to 68 lakh tonnes in 2018-19, with an annual growth rate of 3.9 %. The highest growth in production was observed in onion (7.5% annually) followed by tomato and cole crops. The area effect was the most responsible factor for increasing production of tomato, onion, guards, cole crops and other vegetables group. Thus, in effect for overall vegetables, it is 66 % of the total increased production effect. However, for potato and leafy vegetables, only yield effect was found to be positively contributing to the production.
