Resumen
Descripción
The sustainability issue of the crop productivity is fast emerging. The
post-Green Revolution phase is characterized by high input-use and
decelerating total factor productivity growth (TFPG). The agricultural
productivity attained during the 1980s has not been sustained during the
1990s and has posed a challenge for the researchers to shift the production
function upward by improving the technology index. It calls for an
examination of issues related to the trends in the agricultural productivity,
particularly with reference to individual crops grown in the major states of
India. Temporal and spatial variations of TFPG for major crops of India
have also been examined.
