Abstract = {India is the world's largest producer of pulses, which are an important component of the Indian diet. Stagnant production in that country has contributed to declining per capita consumption over the past 20 years. During this period, domestic pulse prices have increased relative to other foods. Despite a liberal import regime, imports have generally remained a small share of supplies. Most Indian consumers are highly sensitive to prices when making food purchase decisions. Higher relative prices cause consumers to switch to lower priced pulse varieties and grades, and to other food items, such as cereals and vegetables. The recent rise in the popularity of low-priced imported dry peas demon-strates that consumers substitute nontraditional varieties into their diet based on relative prices. U.S. dry peas are not competitive in India because of the limited market for premium grades, as well as the higher costs associated with bagging and containerized shipping. U.S. chickpeas have also been limited to a small, premium-priced niche segment of the market},

Abstract = {It is evident that there have been some significant changes in the food consumption basket. The latest National Sample Survey data for 2009-10 (66th Round) show a further shift away from food to non-food items in all expenditure categories across both rural and urban areas. This analysis of changes across three rounds (1993-94, 2004-05 and 2009-10) reveals that the pace of change accelerated between 2004-05 and 2009-10.

Abstract = {India witnessed a widening of income inequality during the phase of acceleration in economic growth in the post-reform period (1993-94 to 2004-05). This paper analyses the issue by using different types of inequality measurements like general entropy indices, kernel density graphs, percentile of income graphs and field decomposition. It finds two major features of a rising inequality in urban areas: (a) even with a doubling of per capita consumption growth in the post-reform decade, the decline in poverty was less by a quarter compared to the pre-reform decade, and (b) in the post-reform period, the growth of the wage rate of regular workers was negative up to the 50th percentile of wage earnings, and beyond that point, wage rate growth turned positive and rose sharply to reach 5% per annum in highest quintile of wage earnings.
