    A Statistical investigation on export of cashewnut from India
    (UAS, Dharwad, 2010) K.Padmanaban; Y.N.Havaldar
    A statistical investigation on export of cashew nut from India were analysed for the period of 1980-2008, for trend analysis of export of cashew kernel and cashew nut shell liquid. For import of raw cashew nut, the period taken was between1995-2008. The study period taken for probability transition analysis was 1999-2008 and the period of 1997-2008 was taken for instability analysis. The statistical tools namely polynomial regression analysis, Markov chain analysis and co-efficient variation were employed. The results revealed that trend in export of cashew kernel behaved almost constant in the initial study period. After1988 it started increasing till the end of the period. The export of cashew nut shell liquid showed decreasing rate at initial study period and it almost fluctuates throughout the study period, but after 2006 it was showing increasing trend and import of raw cashew nut to India showed increasing at increasing rate till 2006, after 2006, it decreases gradually. The transitional probability matrix showed USA was one of the most stable importer of Indian cashew kernel and cashew nut shell liquid. The Tanzania was the major exporter of raw cashew nut to India. The countries like UK and Japan had the retention of zero percent. So these countries are unstable importers of Indian cashew kernels. The ‘other countries’ showed stable importers both cashew kernel and also cashew nut shell liquid. The projection to the year of 2015, showed decreased rate in case of USA, Netherland, UK, Japan and France. UAE showed increased rate of import of cashew kernel from India. In case of cashew nut shell liquid, countries like USA, Japan and ‘other countries showed increased rate and the Korea Rep. showed the decreased rate of import. The raw cashew nut import from Tanzania and Mozambique showed decreased rate compared to the year 2008. Ivory Coast, Guinea Bissau and Indonesia, Benin and other countries showed increased rate of import. The results revealed from instability analysis, the USA, Netherland are stable importers and the UAE was the most unstable importer of Indian cashew kernel. The cashew nut shell liquid export showed unstable to all importing countries. In case of raw cashew nut import, the Tanzania showed the stable, compared to all other exporting countries.
