Abstract

This paper reports some simple but significant empirical marketable surplus relations for a guar crop in Haryana state. The behavior of the marketed supply of food crops grow partly for home consumption is a matter of critical importance for a growing economy, for the rate of growth of the urban industrial sector depends on the availability of a food from the rural, agricultural sector. It discusses their overall policy implication in the farm sector as well as in the marketing sub-sectors so that it is suitable for Governments to focus more on encouraging a jump in farm output particularly in case of guar without any distinct consideration in favor of small or large farms. The nature of the marketable surplus function is such, in most areas that the usual arguments for discrimination in favor of large farms do not hold. Even with the farm structure remaining what it is, output increases will lead to more than proportionate increases in marketable surplus without a discriminatory or coercive policy. One aspect of the situation is that in the case guar concentration of marketable surplus amongst big farmers was higher. The study provides a comparative study on different blocks in Haryana state and also brings out the impact of the market access of villages as represented by weekly markets and the role of payments and receipts in kind.
