PREFACE
Agriculture is the main stay of the State economy in that its role is
fundamentally instrumental in terms of market, factor and product contributions. Area under
agriculture comes to
2009-10 (AE)

61 per cent of the total geographical area of Tamil Nadu. As of

primary sectors contribution to Tamil Nadus GDP was put at 9.16 percent

(at 2004-05 constant prices) while it provides gainful employment for about 60 percent of the
rural work force. Performance of agricultural sector mainly hinges on natural forces such as
spatio-temporal distribution of rainfall, temperature, climate etc., with the result any
aberration of monsoon from the normal pattern brings about vast fluctuations in area and
production.
Considering the crucial and dynamic variables such as growing population,
changing income elasticity of demand for food items and rising real per capita income, the
agricultural sector should clock an annual growth rate of 4 per cent per annum. Besides
resilience of farm sector, a sustained step-up in agricultural production is imperative to
ensure food security and nutritional security for the increasing population and well-being of
the farming community. As the land is mostly inelastic in nature, the area under cultivation
could not be increased beyond certain limit. Now, area available for cultivation gets
saturated or even starts declining mainly due to bulging urbanization and growing housing
activities. Hence, the only choice available for the State is to accelerate food production by
increasing productivity. This could be possible through fine-tuning the extension services,
coupled with intensive use of package of inputs and application of cutting-edge farm
technology to meet the growing needs of the rising population in the State.
The Department of Economics and Statistics is designated as SASA (State

Agricultural Statistics Authority) for furnishing official agricultural statistics in Tamil Nadu.
With this binding this department is collecting, collating and furnishing all types of
agricultural statistics to Government of India as well as Government of Tamil Nadu,
other user departments and common public.
The Season and Crop Report is the principal annual publication released by
this department which contains a seam of information and data on important aspects such
as status of rainfall, land use pattern, sources of irrigation, area, production and productivity,
agricultural wages, wholesale price trend and also the comparative analysis of various
States under area and production of food grains. It puts the matter into perspective. A
longitudinal study of agricultural sector can be made by examining and analyzing the timeseries data meticulously.

Crop wise area and land use pattern were arrived at based on the revenue
records as finalized at the time of Jamabandhi in each district.

The estimates of the

productivity and production of various crops were made based on the crop cutting
experiment carried out with the joint efforts of the Departments of Economics and Statistics,
Agriculture and Horticulture and Plantation crops.
The services rendered by the following officials of this Department for the timely
preparation and publication of this report is highly appreciated.
Dr. M. Murughan, Additional Director,
Tmt. S.R. Navaneetham, Joint Director of Statistics,
Thiru R. Nandakumar, Deputy Director of Statistics,
Thiru. N. Kannu, Assistant Director of

Statistics,

Tmt. V. Muthulakshmi, Statistical Officer,

Tmt. C. Thilagavathy, Statistical Inspector and
Tmt. A. Shakila, Statistical Inspector.
The involvement of all District Collectors, District Revenue Officers, Revenue
Divisional Officers, Tashildars, Revenue Inspectors and Village Administrative Officers of
Revenue Department, Joint Directors, Deputy Directors, Assistant Directors, Agricultural
Officers, Horticultural Officers, Deputy Agricultural Officers, Assistant Agricultural Officers of
both Agriculture and Horticulture and Plantation Crops Departments and Regional Deputy
Directors, District Assistant Directors, Divisional Statistical Officers and Block Statistical
Inspectors of this Department who have been associated with the collection and compilation
of this report at district level is highly commended.
I also acknowledge the service rendered by the Government Central Press
in printing the Report in time.
I hope this report will come in handy for agricultural policy makers,
government functionaries, researchers and those interested in studying the agricultural
economy of the State.
Suggestions and feedbacks from the users of the document for enriching the
contents of the document in future are most welcome.
