INTRODUCTION
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Prakash et al (1995) examine the impact of new economic policy on agricultural exports.
They look at the current trends in foreign trade of India, contribution of agricultural exports
in total exports, the share of India in the global production and export of agricultural
commodities, the changing compositions of major exportable commodities over time, major
steps of liberalization in agricultural export import policy, to identify the newly emerging
agricultural commodities having vast potential for steady exports and to suggest a strategy for
realizing full export potential of agricultural commodities.
Jha Brajesh (2002) has examined the export competitiveness of Indian Tobacco and also
discussed the share of agriculture and non-agriculture export in total exports of India.
Neha Sinha (2013) has discussed the India’s policy on export of agricultural products and
exports of allied products has often been restrictive and also examined inadequate
warehousing infrastruture
Dr. C Paramasivan, R Pasupathi (2017) has analyzed the status of agro based food
products and its export performance over years by India and also discussed the performance
of Agro based industries in India.
India’s policy on export of agricultural products and allied products has often been
restrictive. Trade barrier hinders the export of agricultural products. Inadequate
warehousing infrastructure is the main problem faced by Indian farmers who are ready to
export their agricultural products and also the maintenance of the warehouse is also
restraining.The increase in employment opportunities in other manufacturing sector for
skilled and unskilled workers which decrease the employment opportunities in agricultural
sector. The government should take initiative to develop Agro Input Manufacturing Unit
which produce goods either for mechanization of agriculture or for increasing productivity
and seed industries which will increase the agricultural growth and provides the way for
exports that will increase our Indian economy
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The Research methodology is used to systematically solve the research problems. It may be
understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. In this way we study
various steps that are generally adopted by the researcher in studying his/her research
problem along with the logic behind them. It is necessary for the researcher to know not only
research but also the methodology. In this study simple percentage is calculated to find the
difference in percentage export of agricultural products in three years and trend analysis is
used to forecast the export of agricultural products in next two years.

INTERPRETATION
From the above trend analysis the actual export values in the year 2015-16 is10533382.97
and the export vaue in the year 2016-17 is 10788968.97 and the export value in the year
2017-18 is 11881927. The estimated export sales in the year 2019-20 is 11079288.41 and
export sales in the year 2020-2022 is 11084775.92. It is observed that estimated export sales
decline for future years.

2. The precise detail about agricultural export in Indian economy is not found.
3. Among total agricultural products exported in the year 2017-18 only particular
products export values are found.
