Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola

Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola was established on 20th October, 1969 with its head-quarter at Akola. This Agricultural University was named after the illustrious son of Vidarbha Dr. Panjabrao (alias Bhausaheb) Deshmukh, who was the Minister for Agriculture,Govt. of India. The jurisdiction of this university is spread over the eleven districts of Vidarbha. According to the University Act 1983 (of the Government of Maharashtra), the University is entrusted with the responsibility of agricultural education, research and extension education alongwith breeder and foundation seed programme. The University has its main campus at Akola. The instructional programmes at main campus are spread over in 5 Colleges namely, College of Agriculture, College of Agricultural Engineering & Technology, College of Forestry, College of Horticulture and Post Graduate Institute. At this campus 4 degree programmes namely B.Sc.(Agri.) B.Sc. (Hort.), B.Sc. (Forestry) and B.Tech. (Ag. Engg.) , two Master’s Degree Programmes viz. M.Sc.(Agri.) and M.Tech. (Agri.Engg.) and Doctoral Degree Programmes in the faculties of Agriculture and Agril. Engineering are offered. The University has its sub-campus at Nagpur with constituent College, College of Agriculture which offers B.Sc.(Agri.) and M.Sc.(Agri.) degree programmes. The Nagpur Campus is accomplished with a garden, surrounded by its natural beauty and a well established Zoo which attract the general public and visitors to the city. A separate botanic Garden is being maintained on 22 hectares with a green house for the benefit of research workers. In addition there are 2 affiliated grant-in-aid colleges and 14 private non-grant-in-aid colleges under the umbrella of this University A Central Research Station is situated at the main Campus which caters to the need of research projects undertaken by Crop Scientists of the principle crops of the region are Cotton, Sorghum, Oilseeds and Pulses.

    Title : EXPORT PERFORMANCE OF TOMATO IN INDIA.
    (Publisher : Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, Maharashtra., 2020-11-12) Authors : GHADGE, SAYALI KALIDAS.; Advisor : Ganvir, Dr. B. N.
    Abstract : The present study entitled “Export Performance of Tomato in India” was undertaken to know growth and instability in area, production, productivity and export of tomato, trend in domestic and international prices and competitiveness of tomato export. The nature of data used for the study is entirely based on secondary source of data from 1989-90 to 2018-19. The growth in area, production, productivity and export of tomato was measured by Compound Growth Rate, Coefficient of Variation and Coppock’s Instability Index was used for working out the instability in area, production, productivity and export of tomato. Exponential production function was used to study the trend in domestic and international prices of tomato. The export competitiveness of tomato was measured by Nominal Protection Coefficient (NPC). There is increase in agriculture exports but percentage share of agriculture export to total export was decreasing due to increase in share of manufacturing sectors, service sectors etc. There is increase in quantity of India’s tomato export to world tomato export. The growth rates of tomato area, production, productivity, export quantity and export value in India are found to be positive and significant during period I, period II and over all period of the study. The variability in production was less in period I and period II with 32.00 per cent and 38.10 per cent, respectively and the highest in overall period with 56.27per cent variability. As regard to the export quantity and export value of tomato the highest variation was observed with 149.26 per cent and 159.68 per cent in overall period. The productivity of tomato exhibited less variability with coefficient of variation at 6.38 per cent and 14.90 per cent in period I and period II, respectively and it was 19.50 per cent in overall period. The area of tomato exhibited less variability with coefficient of variation at 21.69 per cent and 21.06 per cent in period I and period II ,respectively, while it was the highest in overall period at 36.53 per cent. Coppock’s Instability Index shows the highest variation in export value of the tomato at 251.22 per cent, followed by export quantity at 163.85 per cent during over all period. Instability in ground area, production and productivity were higher in overall period. The domestic price and international price of tomato were showing exponential trend of growth with increasing at increasing rate. The NPC value of tomato showed the average NPC value as 0.63 per cent and 0.0.81 per cent in period I and period II, respectively and the NPC value for overall period was 0. 72 per cent. It indicates moderately competitiveness in international market.
