Assessment of Cost of Cultivation of Agricultural

and Horticultural Crops in Tripura

1. Introduction

Tripura is one of the seven states in the north eastern part of India located between 22 degree

and 56 minutes and 24 degree and 32 minutes north latitude and between 90 degree and 09 minutes

and 92 degree and 20 minutes east latitude.

Map of Tripura

It is bounded on the north, west, south and south-east by Bangladesh whereas in the east it has

a common boundary with Assam and Mizoram. Tripura is a hilly and landlocked state endowed with

vast green forests and established gas reserves. The state has a total area of 10492 sq. km. The state

has a long border with Bangladesh of 856 km., whole Tripura is divided in eight districts ((Map of

Tripura). As in the other states of the north east, Tripura’s economy is primarily agrarian, and

agriculture and its allied activities contribute nearly 34 % to the state’s Net Domestic Product (Map

1). Rainfall is the primary determinant of crop production in Tripura. However, rainfall is highly

variable in terms of length of the rainy season and amount of rainfall. This variability had a significant

impact on rainfed agriculture in the state. Rainfed lowland rice ecosystems are highly variable and

unpredictable in nature. Multiple abiotic stresses such as unfavorable soil conditions, regional weather

2

patterns, topography, pests and weeds all contribute to the complexity of the ecosystem. The income

of most farmers is low and they are challenged by erratic yields. The average of rainfall over a long

period of time is showing that the amount of rainfall is sufficient for growing of at least two crops in a

season. There is sufficient amount of rainfall starts from April (172.3 mm) to October (186 mm) as

depicted in Fig. 1. Normal distribution of rainfall of Tripura showed that the approximately ±200 mm

rainfall received from April to October in each month. This rainfall pattern provides sufficient

residual soil moisture for growing lentil in rice fallow after harvest of rice. Land use pattern show a

unique trend in Tripura (Table 1).

2. Economy of Agricultural crops in Tripura

The agricultural sector is the largest contributor to the economy of Tripura state. Besides

striving to meet the food requirement, the sector has a strong impact on the needs and overall quality

of life of the people of Tripura. More than 75% of the state's total workforce is still dependent on

agriculture for their subsistence. The ICAR and state departments have been trying to alleviate

farmers’ problems through introduction of new technologies, fertilizers, improved seeds and

protective chemicals since their inception in Tripura. The agricultural production and productivity

depends largely on the quality of land and sustainable practices. A balance between efficient and

productive agricultural enterprise and environmental protection and sustainability is important to

make agriculture sector an economically viable venture. In the recent decade, the achievement of self-

3

sufficiency in food production in various states was accorded high priority in the food policies of the

country. Tripura, one among the north eastern states of India is also successful in achieving self-

sufficiency in various sectors by increasing its food production in manifolds. But, it has not yet solved

the problem of chronic food security at the household level and year to year fluctuations in food

production.

During the past two decades or so, agriculture sector has experienced many changes in its

production, consumption, distribution and trade regimes due to the changed global economic scenario.

In this ambience, the importance of accurate and up to date information on the economics of

agricultural crops can hardly be overemphasized. The knowledge of the cost and return structure of

different crops is crucial for policy formulation, selecting appropriate production strategies and

identifying regional comparative advantages in crop production. The reliable information on cost and

return of various crops helps the farmers in allocating the scarce resources most optimally. Besides,

such information is of critical importance to the financial and insurance institutions to make

provisions for farm credit and fix insurance premium.

Agriculture in Tripura has traversed a long way during the past decades. The growing

unavailability of landholdings, almost stagnant productivity of all the agriculture and horticulture

crops, livelihood security concerns, increasing incomes, changing consumption patterns and

availability of newer technological options have tempted the farmers to shift to new crops or follow

modern production technology in the state. The major crops of Tripura are grouped broadly under

agriculture crops, vegetable crops and fruit crops, but, area, production and productivity vary from

one agri sub-division to other agri sub-division. The area, production and yield of different agriculture

crops and vegetable are depicted in the following Table 2-6.

Cost of cultivation surveys are carried out to collect data on the various inputs used for the

cultivation of crop. Cost of cultivation surveys are very intensive surveys and is one of the most

important mechanisms for data generation on cost structure of crops. Under these surveys the data are

collected through an inquiry based method, where information on the inputs used for the cultivation of

various crops are obtained by direct inquiry from the farmers or more precisely through the personal

interview method. The farmer is visited repeatedly to record the information on input use correctly

and properly throughout the growth stage of the particular crop i.e. from planting to till the time of

harvest, as the use of input is a continuous process which goes on from beginning to end. Through

these surveys a huge volume of data is generated and the data so collected is generally used to work

out cost per unit area or cost per unit weight. This particular aspect of cost of cultivation surveys is a

problem area, but despite the fact these surveys have been carried out across all the districts of

Tripura. The main objective of the study was to assess actual cost of cultivation incurred by the

farmers for different agricultural and Horticultural crops in the state.

2.1 Development of statistical system of the sector in Tripura

The project on cost of cultivation was started primarily with the objectives of collecting data

of different agri-horticulture crops in the sector and to formulate a design for future programme of

studies. A multi-stage stratified random sampling design was followed for the collection of data. The

districts and the villages under the project formed the first and second stage unit of sampling while the

ultimate unit of sampling was household. The districts and villages were selected in such a manner so

as to cover the major crops identified for the study. However, a common schedule was used to collect

the required information from the farmers regarding various crops under study. The present cost of

cultivation survey covered all the eight districts of Tripura.

8

2.2 Need for statistical standards

Cost of cultivation surveys are an important data source for decision making at the macro as

well as micro level. Accuracy of information generated out of these surveys is of paramount

importance and this can be ensured by proper planning of the survey, so that the sampling as well as

non-sampling errors are minimized. Proper designing of the survey is of utmost importance and

judicious use of the information available from other surveys and censuses serve the purpose in an

efficient manner. Cost of production studies are undertaken with a view to get information for a class

of cultivators belonging to a particular region or an area called as the population. The number of

farmers in all over the state is expected to be very large and surveying such a large population

involves both cost and time. Hence, sample-based information can be used to draw inferences about

the population with the use of precise sampling techniques. A multistage random sampling has been

used for the present study covering all the eight districts of Tripura, where the household is the

ultimate sampling unit along with districts and villages as first and second stage unit of sampling

respectively.

2.3 Need for precise survey

The information on costs and returns from all crops and initiatives for different regions of the

state is yet to be ascertained and documented on scientific lines at the state level. The more apparent

climatic changes have started impacting agriculture in a big way. Ecological amplitude and niches of

all the crops are getting shifted which have direct implications for the structure of cost and returns of

these crops. New diseases and insect pests are emerging in these crops. Resultantly, the economy of

the small and marginal farmers is being influenced in a big way by these changes. In addition to these,

the farmers of the state face errant natural vagaries such as torrential rains, hail storms and droughts

that wreck the small holders’ economy frequently. Thus, at times the farmers demand the support and

compensation from the state for their unforeseen crop losses. Also, many a time the Government

requires precise information on the costs of cultivation of crops that enter international market so as to

rationalize the duty structure. Since the ground realities in farming are changing very fast, there is a

need to keep track of the changing production costs. In order to meet this requirement, one needs the

most recent cost of cultivation data of major crops, especially agri and horticulture crops grown in the

state so that if the situation demands the farming community be provided appropriate support under

Market Intervention Scheme (MIS). However, such information is not available with any agency in

the state. Therefore, to fill this void the present project was sanctioned by the Directorate of

Economics & Statistics, Planning (Statistics) Department, and Government of Tripura. The specific

objectives of this project are as under:

To estimate the cost of cultivation of major agriculture and horticulture crops in the state and

work out their profitability.

To supply the policy inputs based on these studies to the administrators, policy makers and

planners in the state.

To find out the technological gap of cost of cultivation between marginal farmers & medium

land holding farmers.

3. Methodology

The methodology being followed in present study regarding the production behavior of all

types of horticultural and agricultural crops in Tripura includes both primary and secondary data. The

9

study includes all the eight districts of Tripura. The primary data was collected through a structured

schedule questionnaire containing relevant questions regarding the production behavior of all types of

horticultural and agricultural crops and various costs involved in the production process of various

crops under different villages of every subdivision and sectors (Annexure I and II). The secondary

data was collected from Governmental and Nongovernmental source such as Directorate of

Economics and Statistics, District Agricultural office, Department of Agricultural Statistics and

various governmental bulletins. In order to compute the costs and returns, the standard methodology

used by the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP), New Delhi and The Manual

published by the Central Statistical organization was followed. The standard farm management costs

were computed to fulfill the objectives of the investigation. Data on various aspects of the cost and

returns of selected crops were collected using rapid rural appraisal in the sample villages using

specially designed schedules for this purpose. The data were tabulated and analyzed using appropriate

tools to arrive at the conclusions of the study.

3.1 Selection of study area and method of sampling

Farm level data were collected from eight districts of Tripura. The districts were randomly

selected for investigation because very few attempts have been made earlier in Tripura to investigate

the pattern of growth rate in area, production and productivity of various crop and nature of instability

and variability in production.

A multistage stratified random sampling technique was used to select the ultimate unit of

sample i.e. farmer respondents. Both primary and secondary data were collected for the study.

Primary data have been collected from sample respondent from each and every sector of 8 districts in

Tripura. Under the sampling technique followed for the present study the districts and villages

constituted the first and second stage unit of sampling respectively and the household is the ultimate

sampling unit. A household can be defined as a group of people who share food regularly, and usually

live in the same house or group of houses. A household is classified as farm/farmer household if it

possess some land and if at least one of its member is engaged in agricultural activities. For the

purpose of economic analysis, the farm household is ascertained as the sum of all the productive

activities of its members, remunerated and unremunerated.

3.2. Data collection method Interview and observation method were considered as appropriate tools for the present study.

Interview method was considered for the following reasons:

a) To get complete and reliable information of the field situation.

b) To get the information about cost of cultivation of every crop.

c) To get information about economic profit of farmer.

3.3. Variables under the study

A variable is defined as anything that has a quantity or quality that varies. There are two types

of variables, namely dependent variables and independent variables.

3.4. Dependent variable The variable that depends on other measurable factors is known as dependent variables. These

variables are expected to change as a result of an experimental manipulation of the independent

variable or variables. Dependent variables are often denoted by Y. The dependent variables under the

present study are gross return.

3.5. Gross return (in Rs.) Gross return was expressed in term of rupee. It was calculated by converting both the main

product and the by-product in to value terms by multiplying yield of crops with their respective post

harvest prices prevailing in the studied area.

3.6. Independent variable A variable whose variation does not depend on that of other variables is known as

independent variables. Independent variable is stable and unaffected by the other variables and often

denoted by x. The independent variables under the present study are

3.6.1. Area (in ha): Area was expressed in terms of hectare. It was calculated by taking the unit of

area.

3.6.2. Manures-Fertilizers and Pesticides (in Rs): This variable was calculated as total

expenses made on farm yard manures, chemical fertilizers and pesticides at current prices.

State level (Director of agriculture)

District level (Deputy Director of agriculture)

Village (Village level worker)

Sub division level (superintendent of Agriculture)

Agri-sector level (Agriculture office)

11

3.6.3. Seeds and planting material (in Rs): This variable was calculated as total expenses made

on seeds at current prices. The cost of vegetable seeds, grafted fruit plants and suckers for banana and

pineapple were considered at the current approved price.

3.6.4. Human labour: Labour units are standard units for the measurement of the stock of labour in

the household, family or hired labour. They are calculated by assigning the appropriate labour unit

equivalent to each household member and multiplying that by the percentage of time the member was

available for work in the farm household during the previous year.

3.6.5. Machine labour: It refers to the machine labour charges incurred through the use of various

farm machineries such as tractor, power tillers etc.

3.7. Methods of measurement of cost items Method of measurement of cost items will depend on the item on which cost is measured.

Given below are some of the methods of valuation of items of cost.

3.7.1. Purchased price: This is a method of valuation of item of cost on the basis of current price

as actual purchase price. It is used for those items of cost which have both short life span and whose

values do not change substantially during short time periods. For example, inputs like fertilizers,

chemicals, feeds and seeds can be evaluated on the basis of purchase price.

3.7.2. Net selling price: It is the selling price minus cost of marketing. Used for farm products sold.

3.7.3. Imputed value: The family labour is an important input in the enterprise, but no money is

paid by the farmer to his family members for the work done on the farm. Cost assessment in respect

of such items is made by using imputed value of cost. Family labour cost is generally imputed on the

basis of prevailing wage rate in the locality. It may be noted that the family of a farmer may comprise

male, female or young children all of which may be doing some work on the farm.

3.7.4. Replacement cost less depreciation: It is generally used for property whose value changes

appreciably from year to year.

3.7.5. Allocation of joint costs: In case more than one crop is grown on a farm it is very important

to determine cost incurred on various items as are used on individual crops. While correct assessment

of crop specific costs are impossible, reasonably good estimates of costs can be obtained by following

the standard procedures of allocation of joint costs.

3.7.6. Depreciation of farm buildings: It can be charged to the individual enterprise in proportion

to the total area under the enterprise in case the building is used for different enterprises. However, if

the building is used for single enterprise, the entire depreciation can be charged to that particular

enterprise only.

3.7.7. Depreciation of farm machinery, tools and implements: Like the farm buildings here

also the depreciation or minor repairs can be charged to individual enterprise in proportion to the area

under a given enterprise. Alternatively, time spent on individual enterprise by a given machine / tool

and implement can form the basis for charging depreciation.

12

3.7.8. Taxes and rental for land: These can be allocated to the different enterprises in proportion

to the land occupied by the individual enterprise.

3.7.9. Maintenance of farm animal costs: These would be allocated on the basis of proportion of

time the animal labour is used for the respective enterprise.

3.8. Classification of cost items

There are several cost components involved in the crop production which constitute the cost

of production of a particular crop. Accurate measurement of all the components of costs is thus of

crucial importance for correct assessment of cost of production of any particular crop.

Costs incurred on a farm can be classified as cash cost or non-cash cost. Cash Costs are the

costs for which farmer spends money for acquisition of material inputs like seeds, fertilizer, chemicals

or labour inputs like hired labour etc. On the other hand, non-cash costs are attributable to items of

cost, which do not require spending money. These may be items of cost like family labour, payments

made in kind, home grown seeds, manure etc, exchange labour, depreciation, interest on operating

capital etc.

Another way of classifying costs are treating them as variable or fixed costs, although some

of the costs may be treated as fixed or variable depending on the time at which they are incurred. This

is due to the fact that in short term some of the costs are variable while others are fixed. However, in

the long run all costs are variable.

3.8.1. Fixed cost: These costs are related to fixed resources and are overhead costs. They remain

constant irrespective of the yields obtained. Fixed cost considered for cost of production calculation of

crops includes land rent, interest on fixed capital, depreciation of building and farm machineries, taxes

and wages of the permanent laboures. In the present study, the land revenue was not taken into

consideration for cost of cultivation calculation as the land area belonging to each farmer under the

study was less than one ha and mostly acquired through inheritance.

3.8.1.1. Depreciation: In the present study, depreciation charges of fixed assets are worked out by

the Straight Line Method using the formula:

Original cost – Junk value

Depreciation = ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Life of the asset

3.8.1.2. Rental Value of Land: A number of alternative procedures to compute rental value for

owned land have been suggested in various literatures. The important methods among them are -

a) An appropriate rate of interest on the value of land.

b) Market rent

c) A fixed proportion of the output.

In the present study the land rent was not taken into consideration for cost of cultivation

calculation as the land area belonging to each farmer under the study was own land and mostly

acquired through inheritance.

13

3.9. Variable cost

These costs are related to the variable resources and change with the output. The variable

costs are nil, if there is no production on the farm. They change with the quantity of production. In the

beginning, as the production increases variable costs rise quite rapidly, but with further rise in

production variable costs do not increase proportionately with the production and in later part the

variable costs start rising more rapidly than the production. The variable cost includes all the current

supplies such as seeds, fertilizers, irrigation, insecticides, hired labour charges, interest on working

capital.

3.9.1. Cost of seed and planting material (in Rs.): It is calculated by multiplying the amount of

seeds or numbers of plants used in the farm for respective crops with their respective current market

prices.

3.9.2. Cost of manure and fertilizers (in Rs.): It is also calculated by multiplying the amount of

manures and fertilizers used in the farm with their respective current market prices.

3.9.3. Cost of herbicides and pesticides (in Rs.): It is calculated by multiplying the amount of

herbicides and pesticides used in the particular farm with their respective current market prices.

3.9.4. Human labour cost (in Rs.): It was expressed in terms of rupees by converting one

standard man day equal to Rs.300. Eight hours of an adult man’s work was considered as standard

man-day. It includes hired labour and imputed cost on family labour etc. The child and women

labours were converted in to man labour days by taking ratio of 1:0.75:0.5 for men, women and child

labour respectively. Different labour unit equivalents are assigned to men and women in some

countries justifying the lower pays to women. It is observed that men and women doing the same

work do not show any significant difference in work efficiency, therefore, labour flow (inputs) should

not be weighted by labour units equivalents. If actual hours are measured, and not days, the lower

productivity of youth and old people will be reflected in the shorter hour worked.

3.9.5. Machine labour cost (in Rs.): It was measured in terms of rupee by counting machine cost

per hour at Rs. 300.

3.9.6. Irrigation charges (in Rs.): Irrigation charges are calculated by considering the method of

irrigation for the particular farm under study. When irrigation in the crop fields requires operation of

pump sets then the irrigation charges are calculated considering the operation cost and fuel cost etc.

3.9.7. Fixed cost (in Rs): The fixed cost (Cost B) related to different crops under the present study

includes land rent, depreciation value and others. Land revenue was not included in the calculation of

fixed cost, as most of the farmers under study have less than 1 ha of land as their operational holding

for particular crops.

3.9.8. Total cost: Both the fixed and variable cost together form the total cost of production of each

unit of crop. Even when the variable costs are nil, the total cost remains there in the form of fixed

costs. Total cost includes total economic cost of production and is made up of variable costs, which

vary according to the quantity of a good produced and include inputs such as labor and raw materials,

plus fixed costs, which are independent of the quality of a good produced and include inputs that

cannot be varied in the short term such as building and machinery.

Total cost/unit = Fixed cost/unit + Variable cost/unit

14

Thus, labour employed on a daily basis is variable while a permanent farm labour is to be

considered fixed for a short period of time. Variable costs vary directly with the production. The

greater the production, greater are the variable costs. Variable costs may be either cash costs or non

cash costs. Examples of variable cash costs are seeds, fruit crop planting materials, fertilizers,

pesticides, hired labour etc. On the other hand, payments made in kind are the variable non-cash costs.

Care need to be taken that the payments made in kind are accounting for only once. Unpaid family

labour is considered as a variable cost only if there are alternative employment opportunities. In case

alternative employment opportunities do not exist the unpaid family labour cost need not be included.

Again whether or not to include the unpaid family labour cost will depend on the objective of the

study. Thus, if farms of different labour sources are to be compared, ignoring the unpaid family labour

cost will underestimate the cost. The land rent paid is an example of fixed cash cost. Land rent paid in

kind, depreciation of farm machinery, tools and equipments, farm buildings and the cost of

maintaining farm work animals are the examples of fixed non-cash costs.

3.10. Cost structure Costs are generated following certain cost concepts. These cost concepts and item of cost

included under the present study are given bellow:

3.10.1. COST A: All the costs related to labour, planting material/seeds and inputs etc.

I. Value of human labour

II. Value of hired bullock labour

III. Value of hired machinery charges

IV. Value of seed(both farm produced and purchased)

V. Value of insecticides

VI. Cost of manures

VII. Cost of fertilizer

VIII. Irrigation charges

IX. Miscellaneous expenses

3.10.2. Cost B: Fixed Cost (Land rent, depreciation and other) which has been estimated as per the

provision.

3.10.3. Cost C: Total Cost (Cost A+ Cost B)

3.10.4. Gross Return: Total income generated from the sale of farm produce including both the

main product and the by product. Gross rate of return is the total rate of return on an investment

before the deduction of any fees or expenses. The gross rate of return is quoted over a specific period

of time, such as a month, quarter or year.

3.10.5. Net Return: Net return is calculated by deducing all incurred expenses from the gross return

of a particular farm. It is the entity’s income remaining after the deductions of all expenses i.e. total

cost.

Net return = (Gross return – Total cost)

3.10.6. Benefit cost ratio (BC ratio): The benefit-cost ratio is calculated by dividing the total

value of benefits by the total value of the cost. The particular crop is considered to be profitable when

the benefit-cost ratio is equal to or greater than one i.e. BCR ≥ 1.

BC Ratio = (Gross Return/Total Cost)

15

3.11. Crops under the study: Various agricultural and horticultural crops widely grown in

Tripura have been taken into consideration under the present study.

3.11.1. Paddy: Paddy is the staple food of India. It is one of the most widely adaptable crops in India

It covers wide range of area among all the crops but due to low benefit the area of rice is reducing day

by day. Most of the farmers grow the low yielding old rice varieties with traditional system of

cultivation. Most of the farmers in Tripura grow paddy as a main crop.

3.11.2. Maize: Maize is one of the cereal crop cultivated in Tripura. The production of Maize

in Tripura is low due to low interest of farmer of the crop. Maize is grown under the agri-sub

division of Panisagar, Kumarghat, Kailashahar, Padmabill, Tulashikhar, and Sabroom.

3.11.3. Ground Nut: Ground nut is one of the important oil seed crop cultivated in Tripura climatic

condition. Farmer’s of Tripura presently grown ground nut for homestead purpose only.

3.11.4. Sesame: The crop is mostly cultivated by small and marginal farmers under rainfed

conditions. An integrated effort with support services would help the farmers realise higher yields and

returns for their efforts.

3.11.5. Mustard: Mustard is one of the most important oilseed crops in Tripura cultivated mainly as

a rainfed crop, grown either as line sowing or broadcast.

3.11.6. Lentil: Lentil was sown under different methods of establishments in Tripura condition.

Farmers recently attempt to cultivate it on large scale in different region of Tripura.

3.11.8. Horticultural crops

Fruit crops of Tripura

Tripura state is blessed with such favourable agro climatic conditions that it can nurse various

kinds of fruit plants. Bananas, Pineapple, Mango, Mandarin Orange, Musambi, Guava, Jackfruit,

Lime and Lemon etc. are the major fruit crops which are grown by the farmer. However, systematic

plantation of fruit crops is not found in most of the villages in the state. Recently, under various

developmental schemes new orchards have been established in various agri-sectors. Most of the fruit

crops are grown in sloppy land and upland of the state. Farmers do not apply much fertilizer in fruit

crops. Many of them are getting the facilities from government sector as beneficiary. Very few

farmers are following prescribed amount of fertilizer and method. In Tripura most of the month wet

with rain so farmer do not irrigate fruit plants.

In Teliamura subdivision Mousambi, Mango and banana are cultivated and Orange is

specially grown in Mungiyakami agri sector. Mango and Cashew nut are cultivated in private and

government orchard under the Belonia agri subdivision. In Panisagar Subdivision the local people are

growing their own orchard on a huge manner they are growing different fruit crops there specially

Mango (Amrapali), Orange etc. Banana and Mango are grown in most of the agri subdivision.

Pineapple is specially grown in Sabroom, Padmabil, Tulashikhar, Kanchanpur agri subdivision. In

West district, Amrapali mango, Mosambi, Guava, Banana and Pineapple etc. are commonly grown.

3.10.9. Winter vegetable crop

3.10.9.1. Cabbage & Cauliflower: In case of cauliflower the farmers were applying less of both

nitrogen and potash as against the recommendations. However, in cabbage the use of all the three

nutrients of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash was much less than the recommended doses.From

Khowai, Amarpur, Teliamura, Panisagar, Kumarghat, Kanchanpur, Sabroom, Belonia, Rupaichari

16

Subdivision was selected for studying the costs and returns of cabbage and cauliflower as this belt has

emerged as the major season production centre of these crops.

3.10.9.2. Potato: Khowai, Teliamura, Tulashikhar, Shabroom and Beloniya were chosen for

estimating the costs and returns of potato crop because the former is known for production of seed

potato throughout the country and they are contributor to the potato production in the state. The FYM

application was well below the recommendation. The farmers were found to use imbalanced doses of

fertilizers in this crop. Especially in Khowai, the farmers were applying higher phosphorus, potash

and double times higher nitrogen as per the recommended doses.

3.10.9.3. Radish: Reddish is grown in few pockets of Tripura as mainly Winter vegetable crops,

mainly in South region of Tripura i.e. Belonia, Rupaichari, Hrishyamukh, Sabroom, part of

Kailashahar and Jirania. Being short duration vegetable crop, it is highly profitable in term of

growing with low inputs of fertilizers n irrigation implements. It is popular table crop used for salad &

culinary purpose.

3.10.9.4. French bean: French bean is an important and highly profitable vegetable crop of North

Eastern Hill Region of India. It occupies an important position among various Khariff pulses. The

productivity of French bean will meet the increasing demand for green vegetables of the region.

3.10.9.5. Cucumber: Cucumber is a very high value vegetable crop in the state. This crop is grown

in winter as well as in summer season.

3.10.9.6. Tomato: Tomato is cultivated mainly during winter season. This crop is also very

profitable for the farmers, though, cost of cultivation is high due to its pest and disease management

and staking.

3.10.9.7. Capsicum: This crop is high value crop and is sold at very high rate in the market.

Growing season is winter. Only selected farmers grow this crop. Rate of capsicum seed is also high

and along with management cost, its cultivation cost is very high. However, return is also high.

3.10.10. Summer Vegetable

3.10.10.1. Brinjal, Bhindi and Chilly: These vegetable crops are widely cultivated crops in

Tripura. Almost in all agri subdivision these are common crop grown by farmers round the year and

also have good market facility so farmers are interested in these crops.

3.10.10.2. Pointed gourd and Spine gourd: These crops are mostly cultivated in Teliamura Sub

division, Melaghar Subdivision, Satchan agri subdivision. The cost of cultivation of these crops is

very high due to high rate of stacking fencing and planting material. But its market rate and yield is so

high which is influencing the farmers for growing these crops.

3.10.10.3. Ridge gourd: This vegetable crop is one of the highest growing crops in Tripura. It is

extensively grown in south Tripura mainly Hrishyamukh, Belonia, Rajnagar, Rupaichari, Sabroom

and other parts of Tripura. It is an important commercial crop fetching good yield and investment

returns to the farmers. Now days it is growing throughout the year where irrigation facility is

available. Usually this vegetable crop has creeping nature, hence require good support for its vine for

good quality and high yield.

17

3.10.10.4. Bottle gourd and pumpkin: Though these crops are grown in winter as well as in

summer season. Farmers get very good return from these two crops.

3.10.10.5. Bittergourd: Bittergourd is a profitable crop grown in late winter and summer season.

4. Cost of cultivation and returns

The estimation of the cost of cultivation of crops and returns is very important in farm

economics as it helps in decision making at various levels: the farmers, researchers, policy makers,

bankers and the administrators. The cost of cultivation and returns from various crops were computed

based on the information collected from the sample villages through rapid rural appraisal approach.

Share of different agriculture and horticulture crops in total area and production is given in Table 10.

4.1 Agriculture crops

Agriculture crops have major in area (70.5%) and production (32.2%) of the state, and act as

important component of food and livelihood security (Table 10). Among the agriculture crops, rice

has major share in area (93.6%) and production (97.8%) followed by maize, mustard, sesame, field

pea, black gram and lentil (Table 11). There was a wide variation cost of production and returns

among the different agri subdivision, which are under study

The estimation of the cost of cultivation of these crops and returns is very important in farm

economics as it helps in decision making at various levels: the farmers, researchers, policy makers,

bankers and the administrators. Cost of cultivation and returns of different agriculture crops in Tripura

are presented in Table 12. Among the major agriculture crops, we estimated cost of cultivation of rice,

maize, ground nut, Mustard, Sesame, Lentil and French bean at different levels from farmers to sub-

division levels. Cost of cultivation and returns of rice. Maize, Mustard, Sesame, Lentil, French bean

and groundnut is given Table 13-19. All other basic data enclosed as annexure 1-Agriculture crops.

The cost of cultivation per hectare in Tripura for various cereal, pulses and oil seeds crops

(Table 12) were Rs. 51643 for paddy, Rs. 47653 for ground nut, Rs. 35058 for lentil, 39440 for maize,

Rs. 24790 for mustard and Rs. 46815 for sesame. Accordingly BC ratios were 1.34, 4.60, 3.26, 2.44,

2.18 and 2.11 for the respective crops.

Paddy and Maize: It is evident from the Table 13 that cost of cultivation of paddy per hectare is the

highest in Kadamtala followed by Amarpur and lowest in Gandacherra. Farmer’s of all the Agri-

subdivision more or less generally used all the inputs like fertilizer, seeds, etc. and they applied

fertilizer as per conveniently instead of general recommendation ratio 20-30:30:8. But most of the

farmer’s in Tripura does not have adequate knowledge about bio fertilizer and green manuring which

otherwise diminish the cost of use inorganic fertilizer. The result also revealed that, farmer’s are

reluctant to cultivation of paddy due to incurred high labour wages which resulted lower Benefit and

cost ratio. The cost of cultivation in different agri-subdivisions ranged from Rs. 47716 to 55871,

whereas, BC ratio ranged from 1.13 to 1.58.

The cost of cultivation of maize per hectare in different agri-subdivisions ranged from Rs.

31107 to 42760. The gross and net return of maize (Table 14) varied from Rs. 72600 to 94913 and Rs.

39345 to 52152, respectively, among the farmers under different agri-subdivision of Tripura

(Table14). BC ratios ranged from 2.15 to 2.69. Moreover, the yield may be increased whenever

farmer’s supposed to adopted scientific nutrient application (175:250:68), but instead of that used

nutrient in the ratio of 60:25:25, which is very low input and inconvenient approach.

Groundnut and Mustard: Groundnut has always been a remunerative crop, but farmers are not

growing extensively due to lack of quality seeds and proper production technology. Data revealed

(Table 15) that, highest benefit and cost was recorded in Khowai agri- sub division, which is 5.47

followed by Belonia (5.16), whereas the lowest BC ratios was 3.66. The cost of cultivation per hectare

ranged from Rs. 38773 to 60671 and gross income ranged from Rs. 212396 to 223639. Data also

revealed that, farmers of different villages applied NPK approximately @ 60-70:50-60:65-70 ratio,

but recommended dose followed in Tripura is 43:500:31.

Production of Mustard per hectare in Tripura is low under local condition. The highest

Benefit and cost ratio (Table 16) was found in Teliamura (3.06) followed by Amarpur (2.86),

whereas, the lowest was 2.04. The cost of cultivation per hectare ranged from Rs. 16332 to 24790

and gross return ranged from Rs. 49949 to 58438. All the farmers used more or less same amount of

fertilizers instead of phosphorous which is being highest utilized by Salema . None of them uses

herbicides.

Sesame and Lentil: Data on cost of cultivation of sesame per hectare (Table17) showed that it

ranged from Rs. 41162.9 to 53741.82, whereas, gross income raged from Rs. 50089.29 to 54873.1.

The BC ratio of sesame varied from 2.0 to 2.3. Farmers of all the Agri-subdivision more or less

generally used all the inputs like fertilizer, seeds, herbicides, fungicides fertilizer etc. and they applied

fertilizer excessively instead of general recommendation ratio 20-30:30:0.

The production of Lentil in Tripura condition is low due to lack of proper technological interventions

and area expansion with high yielding varieties. The cost of cultivation per hectare ranged from Rs.

31623 to 38771, whereas, gross return ranged from Rs. 103993 to 120000. The BC ratio varied from

3.09-3.85.

4.2. Vegetables

Vegetables crops have third position in area (15.6% share in area) and second in production

(30.8% share in production) of the state, and act as important component of food and livelihood

security. Cost of production and returns of different vegetable crops (Table 20).Potato, tomato,

brinjal, chilli, cabbage, cowpea, cauliflower etc. are the major vegetable crops of the state. Therefore,

the estimation of the cost of cultivation of these crops and returns is very important in farm economics

as it helps in decision making at various levels: the farmers, researchers, policy makers, bankers and

the administrators. Cost of cultivation and returns of major vegetable crops is given in Table 19-26.

Vegetable cultivation in Tripura is very much profitable and various types of winter and summer

vegetables are cultivated. The cost of cultivation of major vegetables crops per hectare (Table 19) as

estimated from the average data on different agri-sectors are Rs. 66791, 85700, 68914, 89261, 57058,

83702, 47880, 72393, 87598, 118060, 100052, 69812, 53361, 61705, 50547, 59739 and 57147.4 for

okra, brinjal, tomato, pointed gourd, radish, spine gourd, chilli, potato, water melon, cauliflower,

cabbage, ridge gourd, colocasia, carrot, french bean, cucumber and bittergourd, respectively.

Whereas, net income for thses respective vegetable crops are Rs. 122212, 199192, 134171, 196438,

81468, 192623, 120323, 112842, 359271, 232350, 250959, 168084, 148079, 126702, 111120, 113200

and 179142.0 benefit cost ratios are 2.79, 3.30, 2.93, 3.14, 2.43, 3.24, 3.48, 2.55, 5.10, 2.74, 3.29, 3.34,

3.71, 2.99, 3.20, 2.90 and 4.13.

of tomato per hectare in Tripura (Table 22) ranges from Rs. 65242 to 71027 and net income ranges

from Rs 122732 to 147945. Whereas, BC ratio ranged from 2.69 to 3.07. Despites of different

Capsicum: Capsicum is also a popular vegetable grown in winter season in Tripura, but in few agri

sectors. Production cost is high due to high rate of hybrid seeds. The cost of cultivation per nhactare

in different agri sectors (Table 38) ranged from Rs. 89327.9 to 96319.0 and net income income

ranged from Rs. 176681.0 to 277649.7. BC ratio ranged from 2.8 to 4.1.

Vegetable cultivation in Tripura has been found to be very profitable. Farmers grow different

types of vegetables in different season so that round the year supply of vegetables may be done.

Accordingly the price of vegetable varies from Rs. 30-80. The present study was designed to assess

the comparative profitability of vegetables viz, tomato, cabbage, okra, raddish, ridgdegourd,

spinegourd, pointedgourd in Tripura under selective villages. The maket price is also high and farmers

get good rate for different vegetables. Therefore, net return and BC ratios are also high in case of

some specific vegetables like chili, potato, radish, cauliflower, cabbage and cucumber etc.

The vegetable cultivation involves more cost as input and net return is also very high due to

high sale rate in the market. The result of vegetables reveals that Tomato growers used more

fertilizers followed by cabbage, cauliflower, brinjal and least fertilizer usage in colocasia, radish

amongst vegetable crops. The input output analysis suggests that vegetable growers can increase total

income by reducing the use of labors.

Constraints of vegetable growing –

To identify the constraints of vegetable production on expansion of vegetable production

74

Lack of good seeds, good varieties, inability of the growers to use chemicals and lack of

incentives due to proper marketing facilities.

4.3. Fruit crops

Fruits are important component in economy of Tripura. Therefore, assessment of the

production cost and return has value for planning and execution of policies. The production cost of

major fruit crops of Tripura is depicted in Table 37-50. Though, area of fruit crops are scattered in all

over Tripura and there is lack of systematic plantaion of these fruit crops. However, over the years

many orchards have been established under various deveoplemental schemes in the state. Therefore,

assessment of cost of cultivation of fruit crops was not possible in every agri sectors. Survey was

conducted in those agri-sectors where fruit crops are grown and data were pooled crop wise to present

for the state as a whole. During the survey, some of the fruit growers have been found to be very

progressive and adopted advanced production technologies. They also started raising fruit nursery

after registering the nursery. Whereas, majority of the fruit growers were found as non progressive

and do not follow the advanced production technologies. Consequently, production and net return was

less in comparison to the progressive farmers.

All the fruits are perennial in nature, therefore there cost of production vary from initial (non

bearing) stage to full bearing stage. Only papaya, banana and pineapple crops were assessed for 1-2

years till first bearing.

Mango: Mango var Amrapali has become very much popular in Tripura and under different

developmental schemes systematic orchards have been established in selected farmer’s field. This

variety is early bearing and fruiting starts in the 4th years and full bearing starts in the 5-6

th year.

Otherwise, only scattered plantaions of other varieties are found witout any economic value. The cost

of cultivation of var. Amraplai per hectare in a progreesive farmer’s orchard (Table 41) is Rs. 51895,

respectively. Whereas, some progressive orchardists were also raisng fruit nursery and alomng with

fruits, they were saling fruit plants. In those orchards, the cost of cultivation is Rs. 48500, 22300,

5. Summary and Conclusion

The analysis showed that paddy is the principal crop raised in the command and non -

command areas. It showed that the percentage of area under paddy cultivation in the

command area is higher than in the non -command area as a result of assured water. Among

the field crops, the percentage of area under Paddy cultivation is the highest followed by

sesame, Maize, Blackgram, Mustard, Lentil, Ground nut, Arhar and among the vegetables,

Potato, okra, tomato, brinjal, chilly, cucurbites, Leafy vegetables, colocassia, carrot, Radish,

cole crops, etc.

Horticulture sector has been the single largest provider of employment to the rural

people of the State. Among the important horticultural crops Mango (var. Amrapali),

mosambi, mandarin orange, lime, pineapple, banana, jackfruit etc. Grown in best Tripura is

widely acclaimed as the best in the country.At present, some orchard growers of tripura

replaced the fruit crops like orange, mango, Mosambi etc by arecanut.In Jampui agri-sec, this

condition is happing now-a- days.

The cost of cultivation of cereal crops showed that higher BC ratios were recorded in ground

nut, followed by lentil. Wheras, paddy gave only 1.34. However, paddy is the prime crop in Tripura

cultivated extensively. Technological interventions are required for increasing the net profit from

paddy such as higher yielding varieties or hybrids, SRI and soil health card based fertilizer and

integrated pest management.

Vegetable cultivation is profitable in Tripura and farmers have adopted high yielgding

varieties as per the recommendations in the state. Farmers has also adopted recommended fertilizer

schedule. However, non progressive farmers do not follwe the improved package of practices for

higher production. Systamatic plantations of fruit crops are found in the state in all the agri sectors.

Under various developmetal schemes systematic orchards have been established in selected farmer’s

field especially for mango, mosambi, banana, ber, guava, papaya and cashewnut. Plantations of

pineppale are found in al most all the agri sectors. Whereas, mandarin orange orchards are restricted

in Jampui hill and Kill agri subdivisions. The cost of cultivation for fruit production is high in the

initial years without any return, but in the bearing states it has been estimated that the net retun is very

high especially in progressive farmer’s orchards. This is because these farmers have adopted the

improved production technologies.
