Abstract

Cotton is a significant cash crop and India cultivates the maximum acreage in the world. It delivers the basic raw material cotton fibre to cotton textile industry, known also as ‘White Gold’ Cotton enjoys a main position amongst all cash in India. The measurement of acreage and yield of cotton, spatial variation in the level of cotton production and its determinants have long been important issues of concern for agricultural geographers, economist and scientists. In Dhule district cotton is grown in the kharif season from May to October. Seeds are sown from April until mid-June. In the present study an attempt has been made to examine the area, production and yield shows of cotton in spatial and temporal context in the Dhule district. This study mainly depends on the primary and secondary database. Primary data collect from the study are by interview and questionnaires, while secondary data collect form the State Agricultural department, Seeds selling agencies and The International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics published data. The present study concludes that cotton is very widely cultivated crop in Dhule district and area has varied between 60 and 344.7 thousand hectares since 1966-67 with apparent tendency to rise or fall. The yield of cotton in the study area as a whole, touched new heights as it increased from 33.33 kg per ha to 406.82 kg per ha during the study period. The cotton production in the Dhule district has increased from 2 thousand tons to 104.85 thousand tons over the period 1966-67 to 2019-20.
