  • Abstract:
  • This research study effectively attempted to estimate the trends in the area and production of onion in selected districts of Karnataka state. Onions are widely cultivated and used around the world. India is the second-largest onion producer in the world. For the present study the secondary data for 24 years dated from 19998-99 to 2021-22, collected on the area and production of onion for Vijayapura and Chitradurga districts of Karnataka from the official website of the Directorate of Economics and Statistics (2020), Department of Agriculture, Government of Karnataka. The data was analyzed through selected linear, quadratic, cubic, quartic, exponential and logistic models. The best-fit model was selected based on minimum Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Average Percentage Error (MAPE) values and highest R2 Value. Results depicted that the quartic model was found best fit for the area of onion and the cubic model was found best fit for the production of onion in the Vijayapura district with fluctuation in trend. The quadratic model was found best fit for the area and production of onion in the Chitradurga district of Karnataka indicating an increasing trend.
