Gujarat Agriculture at a Glance

Agro-climatic Zones of Gujarat According to Rainfall and Soil Type

Sr Sub-region Rainfall (mm) Types of Soil1 Southern Hills 1500 and above Deep black with patches of coastal

alkali lateritic and medium black soil

2 South Gujarat 1000 to1500 Deep black clayey soils

3 Middle Gujarat 800 to1000 Deep black to loamy sand

4 North Gujarat 400 to 700 Medium black

5 North Arid Zone 250 to 500 Sandy and saline soils

6 North Saurashtra 400 to 700 Shallow medium black soils

7 South Saurashtra 645 to 700 Shallow medium black & calcareous soils

8 Bhal & Coastal Area 625 to 1000 Medium black poorly drained and saline soils

Gujarat ClimateMega thermic category with mean soil temperature exceeding 28°C. Air temperature in January normally remains over 10°C. Maximum temperature in May goes over 45°C in north and north-west Gujarat. Rainfall is the most dominant climatic factor. Average rainfall is 972 mm, received in 35 days mostly from June to September with a coefficient of variation (CV) of 50%. Spatially it ranges from 300 mm in north-west to 2,200 mm in south-east. 12 out of 26 districts of Gujarat are drought prone. 24.94% area falls under arid and 33.56% is under semi arid area region.

RKVY Performance (March-09 ending)

(Rs in lakhs)

Mission Statement To increase crop grown area of major agricultural crops to 111.5 lakhs ha. by the end of 11th plan,

(97.49 lakh ha – 2008-09, 14% increase)

To increase production of major agricultural crops with the output of 231.3 lakh tonnes by the end of 11th plan,

(159.70 lakh tonnes – 2008-09, 45% increase)

To increase gross productivity of major agricultural crops 2076 kg/ha by the end of 11th plan,

(1638 kg/ha – 2008-09, 27% increase)

To ensure food and nutritional security with the production of 100.6 lakh tonnes by the end of 11th plan,

(65.60 lakh tonnes – 2008-09, 53% increase)
