Changes in Cropping Pattern of Major Crops in Rajasthan: 1957 to

2017
Rajasthan, with its diverge agro-climatic condition, is richly endowed in the cultivation of a variety of
crops. Agriculture in Rajasthan, continues to be the backbone of the state’s economy with Agriculture
and allied sectors contributing 25.56% of state’s total GSDP in 2019-20. This section analyses the
nature and structure of the cropping pattern of major crops in the state of Rajasthan starting from
1957-58 to 2016-17

Bajra : Among cereals, across six decades, bajra is the most cultivated crop occupying the highest
area in the range of 14-19.5 per cent of the total cropped area. Interestingly, Rajasthan also happens
to be the largest bajra growing state in the country. The geo-physiological and climatic conditions of
Rajasthan support the cultivation of coarse cereals, particularly bajra, and jowar, maize, small millets,
among others. Bajra, a rain-fed crop, commands the highest area among the foodgrain crop as it can
be grown with very less water. That is why it is grown by most farmers of Rajasthan irrespective of
land size and availability of irrigation facility. Although monetarily it is a low priced grain with poor
yields in comparison to wheat or rice. The area under bajra crop has remained unchanged in six
decades, hovering between 4403 to 4706 thousand ha, but the production has surged with a four-fold
increase in yield from 223 kg/ha in 1957-67 to 847 kg/ha in 2007-17.

Wheat : Over the years, Rajasthan state has achieved significant quantitative increase in wheat
production. If we examine wheat area over the years it is clear that area increase is less than that of
production and productivity. Wheat area increased from 1247 thousand ha in 1960-63 to 3063
thousand ha in 2018-19. But wheat production increased nearly 9 folds during the period of study.
Wheat productivity increased to nearly 4 folds during the same period. Wheat productivity was only
873.30kg per ha in the year 1962-63 and increased to 3028 kg per ha in the year 2018-19.The
increase in productivity and production was more prominent after 2002-03. An increased yield is due

to the factors like adoption of high yielding enotypes through well-established coordinated research

system coupled with increase in area under irrigation and favourable weather factors during the crop

season. Whereas, rising support price over years led to the increase in wheat area.

A comparative analysis of growth before and after the Green Revolution in Rajasthan suggests
significant increase in the growth in area, production and yield during the post-green revolution than
the pre-Green Revolution. The growth in area, production and yield during Green Revolution were
1.55,4.23, and2.63 per cent respectively, as against the pre-Green Revolution of -1.37, -2.09, and -
0.72percent. 
Mustard & Rapeseed: Rajasthan is the fore runner in mustard & rapeseed production in India,
occupying above 10 per cent of the sown area in 2007-2017. Over six decade Mustard- Rapeseed is
the most cultivated oilseed in Rajasthan along with that, Rajasthan is also the largest Mustard and
Rapeseed producing state with share of 44% .Area under mustard- rapessed increased 10 times over
last six decades from 255 thousand ha in 1957-67 to 2730 thousand ha in 2007-17.In a same period
Yield of mustard – rapeseed grown 4 times from 510 kg/ha to 1798 kg/ha. Yellow Revolution and
various policies by central and state government i.e. National Oilseed development project,
Technology Mission on Oilseeds, Oil Palm Development Programme under Technology Mission on
Oilseeds and Pulses played an significant role on this remarkable growth of mustard and rapeseed in
Rajasthan.

Soyabean : Within six different oilseeds, it is to be noted that soyabean was not traditionally grown in
Rajasthan. Its cultivation started in 1980-81 when 4.80 thousand ha area was brought under it. Ever
since then, with each passing year, barring few exceptions, there has been a surge in area cultivated
under soyabean. In 1987, the area under soyabean which was 24 thousand ha registered more than
tenfold jump and reached 258 thousand ha area in 10 years. Another ten years saw doubling of the
area under soyabean when it covered 595 thousand ha in 1997-2007. The expansion journey
continued, and soyabean got spread to more than 946 thousand ha in 2007-17. The wide acceptance
of soyabean by farmers is credited for it being a cash-rich crop, rightly known as “Golden Bean”. It
requires less water, is tolerant to yellow mosaic disease and the yield is ever increasing from 681
kg/ha in 1977-87 to 989 kg/ha in the next decade and reached to 1,151 kg/ha in 2007-17.

Table: Average Yield of major crops in Rajasthan. (kg/ha)

Guar : Rajasthan farmers prefer to grow very less water requiring crop like guar whose area has
increased by leaps and bound. Guar witnessed a rise in demand when the processed guar gum
(powder) from guar crop received wide industrial usage in food, cosmetic, printing, pharma and textile.
Further, high demand from shale oil gas fracking industry in America led to a drastic increase in prices
during 2011 and 2012. This has motivated farmers to cultivate a minor crop on an extensive scale,
taking the guar area to a new peak of 4000-5000 thousand ha for four years, from 2012-13 to 2015-16.
Interestingly, the yield has also doubled from 228 kg/ha to 446 kg/ha in sixty years.

Opium : Opium, a notorious cash-rich crop, as its other name ‘black gold’ indicates, has receded in
terms of area occupancy from 5875 thousand ha (33 per cent) in 1957-67 to 3760 thousand ha (14 per
cent) in 2007-17. The Government of India allocates license and land area to farmers in Rajasthan,
along with those in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, for legally growing opium crop which has high
demand in the pharmaceutical industry for developing pain-relieving medicines. Farmers also take an
interest in its cultivation for illegal sale to drug peddlers. Despite high demand and a doubling in yield
from 32 kg/ha to 62 kg/ha at (at 70ºC) in six decades, opium cultivation has decelerated. The stringent
law regarding yield and sale, tedious cultivation of opium crop and fragile nature of the crop has
pushed farmers towards hassle free and more remunerative orange crop. Although farming continues
on commercial lines, farmers have drifted away from illegal to the legal route of cash generation by
moving from a drug crop to a citrus crop.

To sum up, the change in cropping pattern indicates a preference among farmers to grow cash-rich
non-foodgrain crops for sale over cereals. According to Marx, such an increase in area under cash
crops is an indication of the commercialization of agriculture. A rational farmer is bound to take such
decision to fulfil her/his financial requirement in an economy driven by money. Such change can be
interpreted as agricultural development.

Mustard and Rapeseed in India

Mustard (Brassica juncea) is one of the first domesticated crops in rabi season. It is widely cultivated in
tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world. Globally, it is mainly cultivated in India, Canada, China,
Pakistan, Poland, Bangladesh, Sweden and France. Rapeseed and mustard yields were lower in India
compared to other rapeseed and mustard producing countries such as Germany (3811 kg/ha), France
(3240 kg/ha), China (1834 kg/ha) and Canada (1769 kg/ha) as well as the world average (1849 kg/ha) .
Rapeseed and mustard yields, which were low (about 647 kg/ha on the average) during the early 1980s,
witnessed a steady increase during the last three decades and reached a level of 1121 kg/ha in the recent
decade in India. Longer crop duration and high carbon content in the soil are the major factors attributing
to high productivity of rape-mustard in western part of the World. India ranks third in the production of
rapeseed and mustard in the world contributing about 16% of the world production. In India, acreage
under rapeseed and mustard has been 3076 thousand ha. The major mustard growing states in India are
Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and West Bengal. Rajasthan contributes
about 48% to the county’s total mustard production, followed by Uttar Pradesh (12%), Haryana (11%),
Madhya Pradesh (11%), Gujarat (6%), West Bengal (5%) and other districts (7%).

Fig: Contribution of different states of India to Mustard - Rapeseed

The average contribution of rapeseeds-mustard to the total oilseeds production in India was 27% per cent
during 2019-20 years. Its average productivity was 1176 (kg/ha) as compared to 1135 kg/ha of total
oilseeds. Though, rapeseeds-mustard ranks 2nd in terms of production, after soybean, however due to
more oils content (ranging from 35-45 %) rapeseeds-mustard ranks 1st in terms of oils yields amongst all
oilseeds crops. The rapeseeds-mustard production trends represent fluctuating scenario with an all time
high production of 9255 thousand ha tonnes in 2018-19.The yields levels also have been variable from
1185 (kg/ha.) (2013-14) during the last five years. Highest productivity 1511 (kg/ha) level was achieved
during 2018-19 years.

Rapeseeds-mustard is grown across the country, pre-dominantly in North, North-Western and North-
Eastern Region of the country over an area of >6700 thousand hectares. The area coverage under mustard
is largely dependent on the late Kharif rains. Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana and Uttar-Pradesh
contributes >77 per cent of area and about 82 per cent production of mustard in India. West Bengal,
Gujarat and Assam also contribute significantly in mustard production.
Six states in India, viz., Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, West Bengal and Gujarat
accounts for 88.00 per cent and 91.00 per cent of rapeseeds-mustard acreage and production, in the years
2011-12 respect. During the last five years, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh contributed 43.98
%, 11.15 % and 11.23 % to acreage and production was 45.26 %, 12.00 % and 11.11 % respectively.
Among the major oilseed producing states, Haryana has the highest yield (1533 kg/ha) followed by
Rajasthan (1170 kg/ha) and Uttar Pradesh (1121 kg/ha) while West Bengal (911 kg/ha) has the lowest
yield. It is interesting to note that all states witnessed a positive growth in rapeseed and mustard yield
during the last three decades but rate of growth was the highest during the decade of 1980’s, which
decelerated during 1990’s but again picked up during the last decade.

Fig : Trends in area, production and yield of rapeseed-mustard in India from 1989-90 to 2012-13

Over the years, the trend of area, production as well as yield of rapeseed and mustard oilseed’s in India
has shown a continuously ups and down trend. The graphical representation of trend in area, production
and yield of rapeseed-mustard in India from 1992-93 to 2017-18 has shown more variation in production
that in the area of rapeseed-mustard over the years. In 1992-93, total area under rapeseed and mustard
was 48.03 million ha with a production of around 7.76 million tones, whereas in 2017-18 the area under
rapeseed mustard in India increased to 59.77 Mha with production of 84.30 Mt of the reasons for this
fluctuation in production was that oilseeds were largely grown under the rain fed conditions in India.
Further oilseeds production has been given impetus by various policies i.e. National Oilseed development
project, Technology Mission on Oilseeds, Oil Palm Development Programme under Technology Mission on
Oilseeds and Pulses and Mini Mission-I of National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm (NMOOP) aiming at
achieving self-sufficiency in term of oilseeds.
Table : Compound growth rate and variability in area, production and yield of major rapeseed-mustard
producing states in India

In the first period only West Bengal has experienced a positive and significant growth in area, production
and yield but Uttar Pradesh shown the opposite trend in term of area as well as in production of rapeseed-
mustard. There was significant positive growth rate i.e. 1.86 per cent in term of yield at all India level but
negative in area (1.40 %) and lowest in production. It was due to liberalization of oilseed sector by
remaining the quantitative restriction on the import of palm oil at cheaper rate from other countries. This
led to the fall in prices of oilseeds grown by domestic farmers. Hence, there was a shift in area under
oilseeds to other competing crops which led to the decline in production.

In the period II, only west Bengal shown significant and positive growth rate of 2.03 per cent in term of
area, 4.79 per cent in term of production and 2.69 per cent in term of yield. Haryana, Rajasthan as well as
overall in India was found negative but non-significant. All states shows positive and significant trend in
term of yield and Haryana only showed significant growth rate of 1.88 per cent in yield.
 In overall period i.e. 1992-93 to 2017-18, the major producing state included in study had positive and
significant growth trend in term of yield. The production of rapeseed and mustard showed negative and
significant trend in case of Uttar Pradesh in selected states. It was observed that in period I, there was
improvement in growth rate which can be credited to the implementation of technology mission on
oilseeds in 1985-86. However, before green revolution India was a net exporter of edible oil and oilseeds
which became net importer in the 1970’s as a result of vast area expansion under food grains particularly
rice and wheat, After experiencing a dramatic growth during 1990’s due to the opening of oilseed sector in
1994 as a part of economic reform.

In the period I there was positive change in area, production and yield of rapeseed and mustard in India.
Area effect was found more in Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal whereas in Madhya Pradesh, Haryana and at all
India level yield effect dominated. In period II, there was a negative absolute change in area of Madhya
Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana and also at India level whereas yield effect in Rajasthan. During
entire period, area effect was found positive only in West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh where Rajasthan,
Haryana and Uttar Pradesh shown negative effect. The interaction effect of area and yield was
observed negative effect in Rajasthan, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and overall India. Hence, it can be seemed
that the source of change in production varied in different states in different period. There was
negative change in area as well as production at all India level during second period. Overall, during the
study period it was recorded that change in production was attributed due to yield effect.

Mustard and rapeseed trend in Rajasthan State

Rajasthan is an agrarian state, where eighty percent of the total population resides in rural area and
largely dependent on agriculture as the source of their livelihood. The economy of this state is mostly
depended on agriculture 22.50 percent of state’s GDP comes from agriculture. Recognize as the largest
state of India, Rajasthan has cultivated area of almost 20 million hectares but due to some unavoidable
circumstance on 20 per cent of the total cultivated area is irrigated.
Indian mustard (Brassica jancea) is the major oilseeds crops grown in Rajasthan during rabi season. In
Rajasthan, the productivity of rapeseeds & mustard was 1366 kg/ha. during 2019-20 from 3076 thousand
hectares area under cultivation and total production was 4202 thousand tonnes. The yields levels also
have been variables from 1170 kg/ha. to 1709 kg/ha during 2014 - 2020.

Rajasthan is rank first amongst all the states of India in terms of both area and production of rapeseeds-
mustard with share of 44.30 per cent area and 47.20 per cent of production respectively. Rajasthan is the
largest rapeseed-mustard growing state and highest producer of oilseeds crops in the country with
production of 4202 thousand tonnes in 2019-20 which is represented by 48 per cent of the total
production in the country. Realizing the importance of rapeseeds and mustard in India and the State, both
Central and State government have endeavourer to increase production of mustard in the State through
several incentives. Through adoption of recommended technologies by the farmers and by minimizing the
production constraints it is possible. Therefore, it is very necessary to know the knowledge, adoption,
attitude and constraints responsible for non-adoption of various recommended technology of rapeseeds
and mustard cultivation by the farmers and efforts should be made to reduce the constraints for adoption
of recommended production technology of mustard cultivation.

In Rajasthan State, the rapeseeds and mustard crop is most popular oilseeds crops cultivated in Jaipur,
Alwar, Bharatpur, Dholpur, Karouli, Sawai-madhopur, Sriganganagar, Jhunjhunu and Sikar Districts. In this
state, its grown on area of 25,32,330 hectares with an annual production of 32,57,987 tonnes and
productivity of 1287 kg/ha in the years 2013-14.

Fig : Trends in area, production and yield of rapeseed-mustard in Rajasthan from 1979-80 to
2019-20
Over the years, the trend of area, production and yield of rapeseed and mustard in Rajasthan is full of ups
and downs as we cannot figure out any smooth and continuous upward graph. The graphical
representation of trend in area and production of rapeseed-mustard in Rajasthan from 1979-80 to 2019-
20 has shown more like a proportional relationship. In 1979-80, total area under rapeseed and mustard
was 349 thousand ha with a production of around 149 thousand tonnes, which increased to total area of
2568 thousand ha with production of 2480 thousand tonnes in 1999-2000 and further it grown to 3076
thousand ha with production of 4202 thousand tonnes in 2019-20. In a similar fashion yield for mustard -
Rapeseed in Rajasthan grown from 427 kg/ha in 1979-80 to 966 kg/ha in 1999-2000 as a result of yellow
revolution and recently 1709kg/ha in 2018-19 .Large credit for this continuous growth in area,
production and yield goes to various policies by central and state government i.e. National Oilseed
development project, Technology Mission on Oilseeds, Oil Palm Development Programme under
Technology Mission on Oilseeds and Pulses and Mini Mission-I of National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil
Palm (NMOOP) aiming at achieving self-sufficiency in term of oilseeds.

At the time of yellow revolution, area, production and yield of rapeseed-mustard seed in Rajasthan
experienced a significant growth from 1984-85 to 1996- 97, primarily due to the increase in irrigated land
and the availability of high-yielding seeds in the country. However, growth has become almost stagnant in
last one decade due to intermittent drought conditions in some of the major oilseed producing states and
changes in cropping pattern.

The Mustard-Rapeseed scenario in Rajasthan had undergone dramatic change with the initiation of
Technology Mission on Oilseeds (TMO) in 1986. The period 1974-75 to 2019-20 has been divided into two
parts (1) before launching of TMO (1974-75 to 1985-86) and (2) after launching of TMO (1986-87 to
2019-20). The highest mustard production achieved was 2657 thousand tonnes during 1996-97 against
691 thousand tonnes during 1986-87. Since then, the growth is sluggish. Yield of mustard increased
significantly after launch of technology mission but it has become stagnant in last one decade. This
dramatic change of India’s mustard production from a net importer to a self-sufficiency and net exporter
has been popularly known as Yellow Revolution. Although there is a positive growth in area, production
and yield after inception of Technology Mission on Oilseeds but the growth was meagre. Important reason
for sluggish growth was change in cropping pattern as there are better incentive for farmers to grow
wheat, paddy and other cash rich crops. Change in cropping pattern caused significant decrease in the
area under cultivation for mustard in various districts of Rajasthan. The Mission therefore has to focus on
the increase in production through HYV’s and creating awareness in farmers’ on improved technologies.
Appropriate steps need to be undertaken to convince the farmers about the need to increase output of
these crops through demonstration or other incentive means to adopt new technology.
