| dc.description.abstract | India ranks second in production of onion next only to china, but rose onions are mainly grown in Karnataka. Prices plays predominantly vital role in agriculture. Analysis of prices and forecasting the prices over time is important for formulating sound agricultural policy. Since rose onion is export oriented produce, it is necessary to know the export competitiveness and direction of trade of rose onion from India. In view of this the present study was undertaken by collecting monthly model prices of rose onion in selected markets of Karnataka (i..e. Chikkaballapura, Kolar and Yashwantpura) for a period of twenty four (1986-2011) years, export prices and quantity exported to various countries for the period 2001-2010. Increasing trend in prices was observed in all the markets, but the quantum of increase was difference from one market to another market. ARIMA model was employed to forecast the prices, the forecasted prices in all the markets under study showed increasing values. Analysis co-integration showed that there existed a strong integration between the selected markets, where in Yashwantpura has emerged as price leader. It is also observed that rose onion export had a high degree of comparative advantage in the world market and Bangladesh was one of the most stable countries among major importers of Indian rose onion. Hence it is necessary to improve the production and planning the marketing of rose onion in off season which would help the producer in getting higher returns. Since the expected exports to different destinations under study is much higher than the existing one, there is lot of scope for farmers to produce good quality rose onion in the study region and export them to demanding destinations. | en_US |
