2002
Bagchi, B. | Hossain, M.
This study aims to evaluate the comparative advantage in rice production for India, using the detailed data on costs and returns available from the reports of the costs of cultivation of principal crops. It also identifies the factors that caused changes in the comparative advantage from 1975 to 1995 when India experienced respectable growth in rice production through technological progress. The comparative advantage is assessed through an estimation of social profitability and domestic resource cost ratio by imputing the value of rice and the resources involved in its cultivation at their opportunity costs.
