Abstract

The study was conducted in Koraput district of Odisha during 2019-20. A total of 120 respondents were selected. Governance and management, membership commitment, external linkages, group composition, and types of FPO were the factors identified to determine the performance of the FPOs. The results of DEA analysis confirmed that there has been an increase in the efficiency of FPOs. Based on Principal Component Analysis, the factors that had a positive influence on the performance were: youth participation, governance and management, overall participation of men and women as well as the membership commitment. The components which depicted negative influence were: family influence and land contribution. The results further showed that with the increase in the size of FPOs, the likelihood of interaction with other organizations and stakeholders increased.
