Agri, allied sectors to see moderate growth of 3% this fiscal

New Delhi: The agriculture and allied sectors are estimated to grow at a slower pace of 3 per cent in 2017-18, compared to 6.3 per cent last year, Parliament was informed today.

The farm sector growth is estimated to moderate due to higher growth achieved last year, Minister of State for Agriculture Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha.

In its second advance estimate, the Central Statistics Office (CSO) has pegged the growth rate of Gross Value Added (GVA) of agriculture and allied sectors at 3 per cent for 2017-18, taking into account constant 2011-12 prices, he said.

The CSO's approach of growth estimation of GVA in agriculture is pre-dominantly production based.

Since 2016-17 marked a record production of food grains and the base year 2015-16 (for calculating growth of GVA 2016-17), was a drought year, the GVA in agriculture recorded a high growth in 2016-17 fiscal, he added.

"In spite of a better agricultural output estimated for 2017-18, the GVA growth is moderate on account of high output in the base year 2016-17," he said.
