dc.description.abstractThe present study analyzed the price behavior and integration of selected lemon markets in India. Major lemon producing states of India viz. Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Odisha were selected based on their share in total production of the country. Six major markets were selected from major producing states i.e. Tenali (Andhra Pradesh), Pune (Maharashtra), Surat (Gujrat), Attabira (Odisha), Udipi (Karnataka) and Lashkar (Madhya Pradesh). Data on area, production and productivity of lemon were taken from INDIASTAT. To achieve the objectives, various statistical tools like CAGR, Decomposition analysis, Coefficient of Variation, Seasonal Indices, Johansen Methodology, Granger Causality test, Vector Error Correction Model etc. were employed to analyze the data. The analysis indicated that area and production of lemon was consistently increasing significantly in major lemon producing states of India over the last two decades. The change both in area and productivity contributed towards the change in production of lemon. Trend analysis of prices revealed a significant positive trend in the selected markets of lemon. Significant seasonality with inverse relationship has been observed in arrivals and prices of lemon. All the selected markets were found to be integrated and exhibited long-run relationship with each other. Tenali market was found to be a key market as it was influencing the prices of other selected markets of the country. In order to fully integrate the market prices, study suggests for policy interventions in the form of strengthening of market intelligence services along with improvements in market infrastructure including storage, transportation and other physical facilities.
