Abstract

This paper delve deeper and discuss the temporal trend pattern of trends in rice yield in the district level in India between 1966 and 2000. Rice is the main national staple grain and one of the most important elements in food security, nutritional sufficiency, and food subsistence in rural areas. It used a combination of exploratory data analysis, time-series modeling, inferential statistics and machine learning to determine the general geographic trend of yield increase and existing disparities between regions. It was conducted on a Random Forest model with the result of 89 per cent accuracy thus enhancing the strength of yield projection and the credibility of the results. Overall, rice productivity in the country has been on a steady trend of increase with Punjab and Haryana turning out to be agricultural powerhouses. Stagnation in some districts of eastern and central regions on the other hand requires region-based policies and technological interventions on an urgent basis, to narrow the productivity gap.
