A STUDY ON PADDY, VEGETABLES, WHEAT, PULSES
AND FRUITS : 2006  A SYNDICATED STUDY ON AGROCHEMICALS
 
This is the largest study ever conducted by us in the field of agriculture, covering as many as 201 districts across the country (India).

This study estimates the consumption of agrochemicals usage in the cultivation of the study crops viz Paddy, Vegetables, Wheat, Pulses and Fruits.

This was a two-stage study whereby the quantitative stage had a large sample size and provided the data for the estimation of inputs used. The second stage effort had a smaller sample, specific to each of the five study crops, to provide indepth data on the inputs usage practices.
 
Besides the five main study crops, we also have overview reports based on only the quantitative interviews, on the following crops:

1] Cotton 6] Soybean
2] Rapeseed & mustard 7] Groundnut
3] Maize 8] Sugarcane
4] Jowar 9] Plantation crops
5] Bajra
