This study takes into consideration instability and decomposition analysis of major crops cultivation in assam. The important crops of Assam are Autumn Paddy, Winter Paddy, Summer Paddy, Total Paddy, Wheat, Tur, Rape & Mustard, Jute, Potato and Sugarcane. The instability analysis was examined by employing Cuddy-Della Valle Index and as well as decomposition analysis based on the secondary source of data. Paddy cultivation is one of the most widely grown crops. The findings of the study revealed positive yield growth rate and lower yield instability was recorded mostly for all the crops during all the periods with fewer crops under moderate and higher instability till period Ⅱ. Generally lower level of respective instabilities with positive growth rate was recorded but this phenomenon was more prominent and stable after period Ⅱ or post green revolution. The decomposition analysis revealed that area effect was more dominating factor at the initial period of study and at later stage yield effect had more role to play in increase of output.
