Cost, Paddy, Temporal and Structural Changes

The study evaluates the growth trends in Cost A1, C2, C3, gross returns, and yield. An attempt is also made to examine per cent change in cost A1, C2, C3, expenditure on seed, fertilizer, manures, human labour, and Animal labour in different states of India. Data used for the study consisted eighteen years (2004-05 to 2021-22). The upward trajectory in Cost A1 for paddy cultivation across all Indian states surpassed Cost C3, indicating a faster rise in input and paid-out costs than indirect expenses like land rent and fixed capital interest. Maharashtra exhibited the highest growth in Cost C (9.74%), contrasting with lower rates in central region states like Madhya Pradesh (4.67%), Jharkhand (5.27%), and Chhattisgarh (5.87%). Negative yield changes were observed in Maharashtra, while Assam, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, and Himachal Pradesh demonstrated improved performance. Uttarakhand exhibited a negative trend in manure expenditure, unlike the rest of India, where a substantial increase was noted. Despite rising costs in both manures and chemical fertilizers, strategic planning is imperative to curb input cost escalation, given the comparatively lower growth in yield.
