Abstract
Ginger belonging to family Zingiberaceae which has about 50 genera and 1600 species. Ginger is one of the important commercial crop. It is a crop of tropical and sub-tropical region and requires warm humid climate. Its origin is tropical rainforest in south Asia. The objective of the study was to analyse the export performance of Ginger in India. The secondary time series data for the last 30 years i.e.1986-87 to 2015-16 regarding production export quantity and export value were collected from various issues of Spice board of India, APEDA and FAOSTAT. The entire 30 years was equally divided into two period i.e., period I (1986-87 to 2000-01) and period II (2001-02 to 2015-16). The collected data were analysed with the help of statistical tools like CGR, CV, Coppock’s instability Index, trend analysis and Index number in order to fulfil the objective of the study.
There is increase in agriculture exports but percentage share of agriculture export to total exports was decreasing due to increase in share of manufacturing sectors, service sectors etc. There is increase in quantity of India’s ginger export during overall period and percentage share of worlds ginger export to India’s ginger export was also increasing in whole period of study.
The growth rate of ginger production in India was found to be positive and highly significant during the period I, period II and overall period of the study. The growth rate for export quantity and export value of ginger export was found positive and highly significant for period I, period II and overall period. As regards the production, export quantity and export value of ginger shows the highest variation was observed 59.61,69.14 and126.19 per cent of coefficient of variation in overall period respectively. Instability in ginger production was increase in period II. The instability in export quantity and export value of ginger decrease in period II
There was an increase in trend in production, export quantity, export value, domestic and International price of ginger during overall period was positive and among the competitive parametric models, all cases cubic models are found best fitted based on R2 and significance of coefficients.
The index number shows the annual trend for the values, which indicate that the index number for production of world as well as India’s world export and India’s export, value of ginger export, domestic and International price of ginger were increasing trend in overall period on the initial tri-annum (1986-87 to 19888-89) ending as a base value.
The NPC value of ginger showed that in period I with average NPC value as 0.71 and NPC value for the period II was 1.08 which indicate that, Indian ginger is competitiveness in international market.
