Abstract

The price volatility has been the main centre of attention for policy planners. This study therefore, aims to examine the changes in price and arrivals of major oilseeds of APMC, Amreli (Gujarat) analyzing monthly time series data of last twenty years. The findings emerged from the study revealed that the month wise and year wise highest changes were observed for the groundnut (semi spreading), followed by sesamum (white). Month wise severe changes were observed in the price of sesamum (white), while year wise severe changes were observed for the sesamum (black). On the basis of adjusted R2, price model of semi-spreading groundnut was found to be the best fit among all the models.
