5 Directorate of Economics and Statistics Department of Agriculture and Cooperation Ministry of Agriculture Government of India PREFACE The Pocket book on Agricultural Statistics 2013 is intended as a quick reference guide for essential data frequently used by the policy makers and officers of the Ministry of Agriculture and related agencies. Data for this pocket book is largely derived from the Flagship Publication of the Directorate of Economics and Statistics Agricultural Statistics at A Glance published every year and used widely by policy makers, academicians and researchers. The need for this pocket book is felt due to the fact that over the years accumulation of large data on a number of variables related to agriculture The Glance has become large in size making it difficult to carry for all meetings and conferences. Considering this it was felt that a pocket book containing the essential data for the most recent years which are used frequently by the Policy makers/officials of the Ministry may be useful. This Pocket book is designed as a user-friendly product for quick access to key data frequently required by the officials of Ministry of Agriculture. In addition to the key data from At a Glance we have also added other useful data including data including data on G20, BRICS and other international aspects. Suggestions for improvement are most welcome Date: 12 Dec,2013 New Delhi Dr. B. Gangaiah Economic and Statistical Adviser Directorate of Economics and Statistics
