Abstract
In view of tho economic importance of the groundnut crop in Gujarat and the wide fluctuation in prices of groundnut oil which demand socio economic adjustment in advance, the preharvest forecasting of groundnut yield in Gujarat has been attempted by combing eye estimate and selected rainfall variables through regression analysis. Prediction models of groundnut yield for groundnut growing districts of Gujarat, obtained through stepwise regression analysis are discussed In the paper.
