Apple Based Production and Socio-Economic Status of Rural Community

The production and productivity is the important factor for our livelihood fulfilment. People most probably lives in rural areas, those who face so many socio-economic problems, due to lack of productivity or production. Rural people so much hard workers, they want to gain the different opportunities related productivity form their fields, like apple production some other seasonable cash crops etc. They produce so many things like handcrafting food making activities etc, for the maintenance of their sustainable economy as an entrepreneurship purpose. They tried to improve their selves for different types of production, they always ready to hard work to maintain their economy. The present study related to apple production and productivity in Himachal Pradesh during the period under this study to rising average under fruits has been the most striking feature of fruit growing in Himachal Pradesh. Shimla district was selected out of 12 districts for the study. Special focus on Dhamwari village and Shiladesh village from chhuhara block. The selection of these district as a study area was influenced by a few reasons. First, Shimla is highest apple producing district of the state. Second, apples from districts especially are known for their natural colour, sweetness, and succulence. Third, the districts have joint Agricultural Produce Market Committee “Shimla and Kinnaur”. And the last reason was that the both districts come under same division, i.e., Shimla division. During the last few decades, orchards have shown a reasonably wider spatial spread and a notable increase in production. The spatial spread of fruits however, varies markedly over the state. Apple covers 40 percent of the total area under fruits and constitutes nearly 60 percent of total production of fruits. It was first of all introduced at Kotgarh in district Shimla. This area formed the traditional node of its diffusion in the state. The fruit consolidated its position in this area and spread to surrounding areas where secondary nodes got established later. The proposed hypothesis in this regard therefore is proved. Apple presently is an outstanding cash crop of Himachal Pradesh with excellent quality apple being cultivated in the state. The state is often designated as “Apple State” which seems an appropriate epithet. Higher concentration of this commercial crop is associated with the cool temperate climate and considerable high altitudinal location of central parts of the state falling over Shimla, and kinnour districts. The development of infrastructural facilities such as transport, marketing in addition to the government and political support to the growers have significantly contributed to maintain the supremacy of apple in the apple-growing belt of Himachal Pradesh.
