The analysis of growth is usually used in economic studies to find out the trend of a variable over a period and used for making policy decisions. The growth in the area, production and productivity of Pulses in Haryana state was estimated using the compound growth function. The necessary secondary data were collected for a period of 15 years from 2000-2001 to 2014-15. Growth rates showed a significant growth in area, production, and productivity of Mungbean and Urdbean while chickpea and pigeon pea showed negative growth in both area and production. CAGR calculated from 1971-2015 showed a deceleration trend (-7.38%) whereas a negligible growth in area under pulses in the state has recorded (0.02 % pa) for the study period from 2000-2001 to 2014-15.
