dc.description.abstract The present study attempts to estimate the growth performance of non-food grains such as pluses, oilseed, potato, mustard, groundnut and linseed in Bangladesh. The objectives of the study were to estimate the growth rates of acreage and production of these crops before the crop diversification program (CDP) period and during the CDP period using time series data from 1974/75 to 2007/08. The exponential growth rate model and analysis of variance (ANOVA) model were used in this study. The findings of the study indicated that the growth of area for the crops of pulses, oilseed and potato increased before pre-CDP periods and decreased for the crops of mustard, groundnut and linseed. However, the growth of production increased in pre-CDP periods for the all crops. On the other hand, only the crop area for potato increased during CDP period. The stability test between the periods showed that the growth performance of areas for the crops of pulse, oilseed, mustard, groundnut and linseed were better during crop diversification period than pre-crop diversification period. In case of potato, both the growth performance of area and production were better in pre-CDP periods than during CDP periods. en_US
