Abstract
This paper examines the presence of stochastic trend in various domestic terms of trade (TOT) series in India. Results suggest that underlying data generating processes of TOT are non-stationary. Subsequently, we investigate the presence of long-run relationship(s) in the agricultural supply response model through cointegration analysis. The error correction estimates suggest that short-run output adjustments in agriculture are not related to TOT changes in a causal manner. However, short-run deviations in TOT create error-correction in the long-term output adjustments through changes in technology (irrigation). This may imply that agricultural growth can respond better if price incentives are combined with investments in irrigation.
