There have been loud claims, which continue to be made till date, that agricultural growth in Gujarat has been a "success story", which other states must follow. It is also suggested that Gujarat's agricultural growth rose from 3.3 per cent per annum in the 1990s to nearly 9 per cent over the last one decade. The argument goes on: Gujarat has written the success story despite facing challenges like depletion of water tables, deterioration of soil and water conditions due to salinity ingress along the sea coast, irregularity of rainfall, and recurrent drought. However, few have sought to see what impact has it made on the actual income of the agriculturists of Gujarat, and how much they have gained vis-à-vis other states. Now, new figures released in December 2014 by the National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO) in its report, "Key Indicators of Situation of Agricultural Households in India", suggest that, notwithstanding claims of "big" agricultural growth (something which is being disputed by some experts on the ground of choice of abnormal year as base for calculating growth), net incomes from agricultural cultivation remain less than the national average.
