Abstract: This research investigates the comparative growth of the area under cultivation, total production, and yield of potatoes in India, with a focus on understanding the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of these variables over time. By analyzing data across multiple decades, this study aims to assess the interdependence between the area cultivated, production levels, and yield per hectare, providing a holistic view of the dynamics driving potato farming in India. The research identifies key factors such as technological advancements, government policies, market demands, and regional variations that have influenced these growth rates. Additionally, the study highlights the role of agricultural innovations in improving yield and production efficiency, even as the area under cultivation has shown variable growth. The findings offer valuable insights into the sustainability and future prospects of potato cultivation in India, particularly in the context of evolving agricultural practices and climate challenges. This comprehensive analysis aims to inform policymakers, agricultural stakeholders, and researchers about the factors shaping potato production trends in India.
