Abstract

During the last decade, India has witnessed a rising trend in the area, production and yield of crops in the horticulture sector. Over the last decade, the area under horticulture grew by about 2.7% per annum and annual production increased by 7.0%. During 2013 - 14, the production of horticultural crops was about 283.5 million to n s from an area of 24.2 million hectares (ha).Apple cultivation is highly profitable economic activity in the state of Jammu & Kashmir, which is famous for its quality apple.

It has also envisaged on finding out the annual compound growth rates (ACGR) of area, production and Productivity of apples in Jammu & Kashmir for a per iod of ten years i.e. from the year 2006 - 07 to the year 2015 - 16
