Decomposition analysis of factors contributing to yield gap of moth bean in Churu district of Rajasthan
Author(s): Pradeep Patil, JB Patil and VB Gedam
Abstract: Moth bean yield gap analysis was done for Churu district in Rajasthan. Changes in cropping pattern and crop groups were also analyzed for the period 2001 to 2015. Kendall`s coefficients of concordance was estimated for analyzing the change in cropping pattern and tested for their significance. For analyzing the yield gaps in moth bean and its decomposition, primary data for the year 2014-15 and 2015-16 were used. Potential yield of moth bean was taken from (KVK) Krishi Vigyan Kendra of that district. Three types of yield gaps were worked out for moth bean. Where Gap-I denotes technology gap, Gap- II denotes package of practice gap and Gap- III gives resource constraint gap. Decomposition of yield gap was done with the Bisaliah (1977) model of decomposition. Total average yield gap percentage was 45.76 per cent during the study period and yield of green gram can be increased by 91.56 per cent to bring it to potential yield level.
