Abstract


A study on cost structure and production pattern of potato was made at Nilgiris. The investigation showed that there was no significant difference between the different size groups. and also there was no relationship between productivity and the size of farms. Regarding the cost, bullock labour or small tractor, drawn implements can be used wherever possible to reduce the human labour costs. The production function analysis revealed that there was scope for maximising the profit in the area studied by increased utilization of human labour. seeds, fertilizers and manures, plant protection and reorganisation of resources. To increase the production of potatoes, the farmers can get the services of the Indo-German Project in the adoption of package of practices for potato cultivation.
