Abstract
Taking these aspects into consideration current investigation was performed by acquiring monthly wholesale prices of gram in Madhya Pradesh. This analysis was centred on the secondary data regarding relationship between prices and market arrivals of gram in designated Agricultural Produce Market Committee (A.P.M.Cs) of Madhya Pradesh during the span of a decades from 2012-13 to 2021-22. Maximum significant association between prices and arrivals was seen in Vidisha mandi during eight years (2012-13, 2013-14, 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2020-21 and 2021-22) while it was non-significant only in two years in Vidisha mandi (2018-19 & 2019-20). Followed by Raisen and Bhopal mandies during six years. Only in Vidisha and Bhopal mandies the correlation between arrivals and price showed a negative relationship (-0.2330 and -0.0327) and was statistically significant while it was statistically non-significant in Raisen mandi. Market arrivals were maximum in Vidisha mandi alongside monthly average of 1563.04 qt and minimum in Bhopal with the mean of 22.67 quintal per month. Coefficient of variation was computed to study the variations in monthly prices and arrivals gram during 2012-13 to 2021-22. Price variability coefficient of gram was originally peak (49.41%) in Vidisha, followed by (23.51%) Raisen and Bhopal (19.37%) from 2012-13 to 2021-22. The highest variation in arrivals was in Vidisha (49.41%) followed by Bhopal (44.73%) and Raisen (40.93%).
