Trend of exports of Garlic from India are analyzed by empirically fitting different types of trend curves to annual export data of Garlic from the year 1961–2014. Six types of trend curves like Linear, Logarithmic, Quadratic, Cubic, S-curve and exponential curves are fitted to the data. Under the assumption that the fitted trend will continue for some more years the forecasting of exports were also done and forecast accuracy of different models were evaluated.
Cubic, exponential, extrapolation, trend, quadratic
