Objectives: To assess highest export performance of commodity within agricultural products. Also to analyze the export performance of agriculture products in India.

Methods/Statistical analysis: We collected the secondary data from Hand Book of Statistics on the Indian Economy, published by Reserve Bank of India (RBI). And data analyzed through calculated Compound Annual Growth Rates (CAGR) during 1990-91 to 2013-14 in agricultural commodities. In addition, we used simple percentage shares of various products in the agriculture sector in mentioned years.

Findings: Among the products, primary products exports share is occupied the third place. Among the agriculture products, rice exports growth rate was higher in the first reform period. Overall, the rice growth rate is higher. From 1991-92 to 2004-05, marine products’ share is higher within products and rice products export’s share also higher in few years in study period. Among the three products, other ores and minerals export’s CAGR has increased tremendously.

Improvements/Applications: The Government of India has to give needful subsidies to the agriculture sector; this leads to increase the exports performance.
