A Study on Growth and Decomposition Analysis of Area, Production and Yield of Mango in Uttar Pradesh, India

The research was carried out with the aim to know the growth performance, Instability and decomposition analysis of mango in Uttar Pradesh. The objectives of the study were to evaluate growth and instability as well as estimate the area, yield and there interaction on production of Mango in Uttar Pradesh. To fulfil these objectives, secondary data of 30 years (1994-2023) was utilized for analysis and using the statistical tools like CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rates), CV (Coefficient of Variation), Cuddy Della Valle’s Instability Index (CDVI) and decomposition analysis model. The study period was separate into four sub-times i.e. Period 1st from 1994 to 2003, Period 2nd from 2004 to 2013, Period 3rd from 2014 to 2023 and Period 4th from 2014 to 2023 for better understanding. The results depicted that area, production and yield of mango had a positive growth rate during all the study periods. Among the study periods, period 3rd had the highest and significant growth for area with 2.76% per annum of growth rate followed by period 2nd and period 1st. It is clear that mango production was the most instable, with a CVt of 12.52%, followed by yield (8.68%) and the cultivated area (4.53%). Decomposition analysis indicates that, during period 2nd, period 3rd and period 4th, the area impact was the most significant element driving the change in mango production in Uttar Pradesh.
