Rapeseed-Mustard is the second most important edible oil seed crop in India after groundnut and occupies country’s oilseed production nearly 30%. The present investigation aimed to estimation of predictive models for the Rapeseed-Mustard of Chhattisgarh plain and its constituent districts have been made. Models have been fitted for the area productivity and production of the crop separately for above region. Based on these models prediction of area productivity and production of Rapeseed-mustard have been made year wise between 1998-99 to 2013-14. The productivity of Rapeseed-mustard in Chhattisgarh plain is expected to decrease from 396 to 334 kg/ha by the turns of one decades, if it presents growth trends is decreased than it reveals that the major projected implementation should be adopted for increase the yield of oilseed crops in this state. The partial compound growth rates of the area production and productivity of the crop have been also estimated and discussed. Periodic effect of five years as well as annual effects was found to be working in most of the districts/region. Based on a postulated and estimated production function of area and productivity. It was found that in Dhamtari, Durg, Rajnandgaon, Bilaspur and Janjgir district’s area influences the production of Rapeseed-Mustard by more than 42 percent. For the district, Mahasamund and Korba production was influenced by the productivity and only a little contribution is made by the area.
