Abstract

Southern Punjab of Pakistan known as the cotton zone, study was conducted to examine cost benefit analysis of cotton cultivation in district Muzaffargarh (core cotton zone), Punjab in 2015-16. The focus of the study was to evaluate economic analysis of cotton production and financial impact of cotton growers in cotton cultivation. A sample of one hundred cotton growers were randomly selected and directly interviewed for pretested questionnaire. Benefit cost ratio estimated 1.479 which denoted the profitability of cotton cultivation. Econometric model of cotton profit function was examined, price of output and quantity produced of cotton positively affect profit, while cost of production negatively affect profit. It was determined Cropped Area, Land Preparation, Seed, Fertilizer, Pesticides, Irrigation and Labor statically significant and positively affects cotton production. Proper policies are pertinent to input prices and output of cotton mandatory for cotton growers to increase profitability and refining socio-economic status in farming community.

穆扎法尔加尔区农业气候条件下棉花种植经济分析

巴基斯坦旁遮普省南部被称为棉花区，该研究是在2015-16年对旁遮普省Muzaffargarh地区(棉花核心区)棉花种植的成本效益分析进行的。本研究的重点是对棉花生产的经济分析和棉花种植户对棉花种植的经济影响进行评价。随机抽取100名棉农进行直接访谈，填写预测问卷。效益成本比估计为1.479，表示棉花种植的盈利能力。检验了棉花利润函数的计量模型，棉花的产量价格和产量对利润有正向影响，而生产成本对利润有负向影响。结果表明，种植面积、整地、种子、化肥、农药、灌溉和劳动力对棉花产量有显著的正向影响。适当的政策与棉花投入价格和棉花产量有关，棉花种植者必须提高盈利能力，改善农业社区的社会经济地位。
