“…Instability Index Instability index is a simple analytical technique to find out the fluctuation or instability in any time series data (Ramasamy et al, 2005;Gupta and Sharma, 2010). Coefficient of Variation (CV) is the simplest measure of instability in area, production and productivity in selected groundnut states.…”

India is the largest producer of oilseeds in the world as oilseed sector occupies an important position in the agricultural economy of the country. The study was based on the secondary data from 2002-03 to 2019-20. Major five groundnut producing states were selected based on highest production last triennium average production. The growth rate and instability were computed by using Compound Annual Growth Rate and Cuddy-Della Valle Index. The growth pattern of groundnut witnessed a downward trend with respect to area except Rajasthan state (7.667%). Growth pattern of groundnut indicated a downward trend in respect to production in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu state. Growth rate in yield (4.442 %)of groundnut was observed highest in Gujarat state. The instability index showed that the fluctuation in production of groundnut was found to be higher in Andhra Pradesh (44.453%) and Gujarat (41.660%). Low rate of instability was observed in area under groundnut crop in Gujarat (9.690%), Karnataka (10.495%) and Tamil Nadu (11.802%).

Changes in land use that eventually resulted in less land being used for agriculture and more space being used for housing in most metropolitan populations. Land use changes have a variety of ecological effects on both urban and rural locations. One of the most notable land use dynamics is the conversion of land that occurs around the periphery of large cities due to a variety of economic and demographic causes. The specific objectives set forth for the study are, to analyse the temporal changes in the land use pattern of the study area and also to estimate the dynamic changes of land use categories and the loss of agricultural land in the study area. The changes in the land use pattern were estimated for the period from 2000-01 to 2019-2020 and further discussed as two decadal periods. The results revealed that there had been a significant decline in the net area sown, while the area under land put to non-agricultural uses and fallow lands, had a sharp increase. This shift in the land use categories might be due to the increasing demand for urbanization and infrastructure development, as a result of population pressure.

Land is a finite natural resource, the efficient management of which is vital for economic growth and development of the country. It is required for both agriculture and non-agricultural purposes. An analysis of structural changes in the land use pattern over a period of time provides the scope for planned and judicious management of land. In this connection, the present study on ‘An Economic analysis of temporal changes in land use pattern in Western Maharashtra’ was undertaken. For analysis the secondary sources and the necessary regional level time series data on area under land use categories were compiled from various issues of statistical abstract of Maharashtra and other publications of Government. The entire period of 1960-61 to 2019-20 was decomposed into three periods, viz; pre-liberalization, post-liberalization and overall period. A temporal change in land use pattern was estimated with the per cent change and compound growth rates. The temporal changes in land use dynamics of Western Maharashtra region revealed that, land put to non-agricultural uses, miscellaneous tree crops and groves, current fallow and fallows other than current fallow showed an increased trend while, area under forest, barren and uncultivable land, cultivable waste and net area sown registered a decline during Period-II. It is suggested that, during Period-II, the average proportion of forest land is 14.72 per cent, which is far less than the necessary percentage i.e., 33 per cent. Therefore, necessary steps may be taken by the state government in order to restore and maintain ecological balance. Land put to non-agricultural uses inclined throughout all the periods under study indicating an alarming situation. Majority of this conversion to land put to non-agricultural uses has taken place of agricultural land. Hence, the state government may prepare suitable policies controlling conversion of agricultural land, particularly.
