Authors

Abstract
Karnataka state has been well-versed in the
agriculture, horticulture, sericulture, dairying and other allied activities. However,
few studies have highlighted that from the last about three to four decades the
agriculture sector has been showing negative Growth rate. Therefore, in this
paper an effort has been made to analyse the performance of the horticulture
sector in comparison with the agriculture based on the secondary data by using
Compound Growth Rates (CGRs). The comparative analysis clearly highlights that
the agriculture is going down from one decade to another whereas the
horticulture sector is performing better. The paper suggests that in case
further encouragement is given in the form of infrastructure like markets and in
turn the price support the sector will be going to further heights, which is
very much required for the overall development of the state of Karnataka.
