India is popularly known as the “Spice Bowl of the World” for production of variety of spices with superior quality. Turmeric is called as Indian saffron and it is one among the important commercial crop grown in India. India is the largest producer and consumer of turmeric in the world. India contributes about 78 per cent of the world production and a major supplier of turmeric to the world with more than 60 per cent share in turmeric trade. In the last three decades Indian agriculture witnessed so many policy and technological changes. In this context an attempt is made in this study to examine the growth and instability in turmeric production in terms of area, production and yield in selected states of India. The components of change in average production and change in variance of production were also computed and analyzed with the help of decomposition analysis. The growth and instability in turmeric production in India have been examined using secondary data for the period of 32 years, from 1979-80 to 2010-11. This study is confined to five major turmeric producing states in India viz., Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Orissa, Karnataka and Kerala. These five states contributed 72 percent of area under turmeric and 82 per of total turmeric production of the country. It is found that all the selected states registered significant growth in area, production and yield of Turmeric, except in the case of area in Andhra Pradesh and Orissa, production in Andhra Pradesh,Karnataka and Orissa and yield in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Orissa and Kerala. It is also foundfrom the analysis that the instability in area was reduced in Andhra Pradesh, production instability was reduced in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, yield instability was reduced in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. It can be concluded from the above analysis that liberalization measures introduced in 1991 is a mixed bag and its impact on agriculture sector, particularly on Turmeric Cultivation would vary from state to state.

The study was undertaken to know the growth rate, instability, and contribution of area and yield on the production of coconut. The study was based on the secondary data for the period of 19 years (2001 – 2019) for India as well as Tamil Nadu. India is the leading producer of coconut globally 21.38 billion nuts and in the country, Tamil Nadu has the major share in area and production with 5.31 billion nuts. The pace of agricultural development of the country can be estimated through compound annual growth rate, instability is measured using Coppocks instability index and contribution of area and yield on production is studied using decomposition analysis. Results revealed that coconut growth is found to be positive in India as well as in Tamil Nadu, the production of coconut in the country is significantly positive (0.74 percent), but in the state, it is in decline trend (2.48 percent). The trend of productivity seems positive and similar at both the country and state level. Instability index is higher in terms of area (12.71 percent) than production (2.86 percent) and productivity (2.89 percent). Area effect was most responsible (138.2 percent  and 98.3 percent) for the production of coconut than yield effect in both the country as well as the state.

The Impact

The present study assessed the impact of economic slowdown on Indian agriculture. Five factors viz., resource flow in Indian agriculture, input use in Indian agriculture, agricultural exports and imports, inflation in food and non-food products and agrarian distress which affected agriculture were examined. Secondary data on these factors were collected from various sources for period from 2014-15 to 2018-19. The results showed that input use in agriculture and institutional credit advances to agriculture sector have favorable effect while private investment in agriculture, net trade, consumer food price index and farmers’ suicide were adversely affected by the economic slowdown. Therefore it was suggested that government should take comprehensive measures rather than a piecemeal one, to increase income and investment to revive demand.

In India, the land of farmers, where agriculture has always been the primary occupation of the people, more than 50% of the population is still engaged in agriculture and its allied sectors. However, over the years, a significant decline has been observed in the contribution by the agriculture sector towards India's GDP. This chapter aimed towards identifying the gap between the ratio of high inputs and low yields by portraying the various limitations in traditional Indian agriculture methods and how hydroponic agriculture is the need of the hour for the growth of Indian agriculture. Hydroponic agriculture or hydroponics, around the world, has proved to be an efficient and more productive method of agriculture than geoponics (i.e., the traditional agriculture practice carried out in the soil). Although bearing a large bouquet of advantages, there are some limitations associated with it as well. This chapter aimed at overcoming these limitations to enhance this novel approach of agriculture even further.

Traditional Manner

The agriculture sector is undergoing a revolution, owing to several initiatives by Government of India aimed at increasing farmers’ income by 2022-23. These efforts should not be implemented in a traditional manner, but rather with farmers as partners in the process. Farmer producer Companies (FPCs) could serve as a ground-level implementation entity. As a result, FPCs may be at the lead of the economic opportunities that these reforms will generate. The financial viability or health of a Farmer Producer Companies is an important factor because many small and marginal farmers depend on it. Therefore, this study evaluated the financial performance of Farmer Producer Companies of the Western agro-climatic zone of Tamil Nadu utilizing Altman Z’ score model and sustainable growth rate for the period 2015 to 2020. This analysis utilized secondary data gathered from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, India. According to the results, it is concluded that the majority of the sample Farmer Producer Companies are in distress zone and if the present circumstance proceeded, these organizations will be bankrupt, within next two years and all of the companies have negative sustainable growth rate, indicating that they would be unable to operate without external funding. As a result, there is an urgent need to concentrate on these companies in order to ensure their sustainable growth.
