 ABSTRACT

This study was conducted to analyze the acreage response of rice and maize in Andhra Pradesh from 1996-97 to 2015-16 using Nerlovian lag adjustment model. The results of the study showed that the acreage response of rice showed that the coefficient of lagged price and rainfall was positive and significant which explained the changes in area and variation in prices moved in the same direction. In the case of maize, yield had exerted a positive and significant effect on area allocation.

Keywords: Acreage, Nerlovian model, Rice, Maize
