Abstract

National Horticulture mission was started with aim to improve the production, productivity and area under the horticulture crops in 2004-05. The Gujarat state implemented NHM with full strength and developed State Horticulture Mission in parallel to NHM. To capture the impact of NHM (National Horticulture Mission), the study period was re-categorized into: Pre- NHM Period; Post- NHM Period and Overall Period. Major banana producing districts of South Gujarat were selected for analysis. The major analytical tools employed were compound growth rate, Cuddy-Della Vella index and decomposition model. Growth rate analysis showed that on an average, the growth rate of all districts with respect to area, production and productivity of banana was high in period II compared to period I. Instability analysis revealed that, all districts in instability were low in period II compared to period I, except Navsari in terms of area and production. Further, growth-instability analysis showed that most desirable situation in Narmada district was observed in terms of production. Area contribution was more in Bharuch and Surat district and yield contribution was more in Narmada and Navsari district in period I. Whereas, area contribution was more in Narmada and Navsari district and yield contribution was more in Bharuch and Surat district in period II. Area contribution was more in all districts except Bharuch which showed yield contribution was more in production of banana in overall period.
