Abstract:
The present study entitled” estimate the compound growth rate of area, production and productivity of major chilli growing districts of Telangana before and after its creation was undertaken to calculate CGR of area, production and productivity of chilli. The study is based on secondary data with the objective of estimate the compound growth rate of area, production and productivity of chilli and testing the significance of the change in Area, Production, and Productivity of Chilli before and after its creation of Telangana State (2008-09 to 2018-19). The secondary data has collected the particulars of Area, Production and Productivity of chilli district wise, It was found that Before the Creation of Telangana (2008-09 to 2013-14) the Average mean of the area was found to be 81739 ha; average production is 270249.5 tonnes and the productivity is of 3315.83 kg/ha and correspondingly after the creation of Telangana (2014-15 to 2018-19), the Average mean of the area was found to be 87434.4 ha; average production is 330338.0 tonnes; and the productivity is of 3799.2 kg/ha. The testing and significance of the change in overall chilli before and after its formation of Telangana state from 2008-09 to 2018-19 in which the mean of area is 0.631;production is 1.496 and productivity is 1.372 were observed From the study of compound growth rate, it reveals that there was an increase in the area, production, productivity after the bifurcation of Telangana but it was not found to be significant.
