Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the variations in productivity and the trends of Total Factor Productivity (TFP) of the major oilseeds grown in the state of Andhra Pradesh, with a focus on Groundnut. The study utilizes secondary data sources, including the National Statistical Office (NSO) and India Stat, to analyze and interpret the data using descriptive statistics, One-Factor ANOVA analysis, and TFP calculations. The findings of the study indicate that Groundnut has been one of the highest yielding oilseeds in Andhra Pradesh and has exhibited positive trends in TFP over the past two decades, specifically highlighting the years 2009-2010, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021, during which the TFP of Groundnut was particularly high, reflecting an increase in production efficiency. This research provides a comprehensive examination of the productivity of oilseeds in Andhra Pradesh and sheds light on the significance of Groundnut in the state's oilseed production, offering valuable insights into the trends of TFP in Groundnut production and the importance of continuing to monitor and improve efficiency in the sector.
