    Impact assessment of technology mission on oilseeds and pulses in Karnataka
    (UASD) Nethrayini K.R.; S. M. Mundinamani
    The present study was conducted to examine the impact of Technology Mission on Oilseeds and Pulses in Karnataka. Karnataka state was selected as it is one of the major oilseeds and pulses growing state in the country and covered under Technology Mission on Oilseeds and Pulses scheme. Secondary data was collected from DES, Bangalore and Department of Agriculture, Bangalore. Multistage sampling technique was adopted for selection of the sample farmers. Primary data were obtained for the year 2011-12 from the selected sample farmers with the help of pre–tested and well structured schedule. The analytical tools employed were compound growth rate, tabular analysis, budgetting technique, Hazell’s Decomposition analysis and Total Factor Productivity analysis. The growth in area, production and yield was positive during Pre TMO in oilseeds whereas negative growth was observed during Post TMO period. The growth in area, production and yield was positive both during Pre TMOP and Post TMOP in pulses. In selected oilseeds and pulses costs, net returns and gross returns were more in beneficiaries as compared to non-beneficiaries. The change in mean area was the major contributor for increased average production in both oilseeds and pulses. Synchronized movements in area and yield contributed for instability in oilseeds and pulses. Technology has played an important role in groundnut and pigeon pea production whereas in sunflower and chickpea input was the major contributor for output growth. Overall internal rate of return was 31 per cent for groundnut, 22 per cent for sunflower crop, 28 per cent for pigeon pea and 18 per cent for chickpea crop showing that investment on oilseeds and pulses during the past 23 years and 19 years respectively has provided attractive returns.
