The CEIC Database now includes
Agriculture Cost of Cultivation data for
26 agricultural commodities across a selection of Indian states, including
Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and
Punjab. |
|
Data are available for food staples covering paddy, wheat and pulses, as well as non-food crops such as cotton and jute. |
|
Cultivation costs are presented in terms of a variety of concepts; ranging from operational costs, including human labour, machine labour and fertiliser and manure, to fixed costs such as rental costs of land and depreciation of farm buildings. |
|
Data are available on a yearly basis and are generated by multiple rounds of intensive surveys to ensure farmers’ expenditures on inputs are assessed comprehensively. |
|
State level disaggregation can provide insights into the developmental changes in the agricultural sector over time and space. |
|
Information on cost components also allows analysts to gain an in-depth understanding of the states’ disparities in cost structures. |
