Description

The study was conducted to compare the growth and instability between cotton and man-made fibers. The data on cotton production was obtained from faostat. The data on man-made fibers production is taken from the website of indiastat.com. The study period for the study is from 1981-82 to 2020-21. The data is further divided into two periods of twenty years each; Period I:1981-82 to 2000-01 and Period II: 2001-02 to 2020-21. The results were also calculated for the overall period. The statistical tools used in the study were compound growth rate and instability index.  The results showed that over the study period the growth rate for man-made fibers was higher in comparison to cotton, although the variability was higher in man-made fiber production.
