| dc.description.abstract | Pigeon Pea (Cajanus cajana), is a major pulse crop of tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. Hence, the present study was planned to analyze the global competitiveness of tur crop in Karnataka. Seven taluks of Gulbarga district of Karnataka state were selected by using a purposive sampling technique based on the ranking of area, production and productivity of tur. The selected tur processors for the behavioural response analysis were contacted in person and data was collected with the help of a pre-tested interview schedule. Secondary data were collected from the annual reports of FAO, Directorate of Economics and Statistics and Tur Board. In pre-WTO era, the compound growth rate for area and production of tur was negative, while productivity was slightly positive. In the post- WTO era, area, the production and productivity of tur is positive. The supply response of tur is dependent on the rainfall, lagged price, lagged yield and lagged area. Since, 2000 the Indian Government introduced facilities like subsidies on agricultural inputs, irrigation, good minimum support price, promotion of high yielding varieties (HYV) etc. The awareness of tur processors about the policy and institutional instruments was studied by administering a questionnaire. The modern tur processors showed higher awareness compared to the traditional tur processors. The attitude of the tur processors was studied by administering the scale to measure the attitude of tur processors towards WTO era. The attitude of the traditional tur mill processors was unfavourable and the attitude of the modern tur mill processors was favourable. High cost of working capital, taxation, procurement of raw materials, processing and poor power supply were the major production constraints. Fluctuations in market prices were major marketing constraint while non-availability of quality testing laboratories and limitations on export were the major export constraints. | en_US |
