In India fast growing sub-sector of agriculture is the livestock production. The present study made an attempt to analyse the seasonal inÀuence on the retail price of mutton in Tamil Nadu. The data relevant for the study were collected from the Annual Statistical Abstract published by the Department of Statistics, Government of Tamil Nadu for the period from April 1975 to March 2018 and using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) formula the time value of money was calculated. The results revealed that significantly higher average retail price was noticed during winter summer season (Rs. 17.24 ± 0.16; 17.25 ± 0.13) than monsoon (Rs. 16.80 ± 0.11) and post monsoon (Rs. 16.69 ± 0.13).
