The study has determined the resource-use and allocative efficiency in ginger production in Wayanad district of Kerala. The multi-stage random sampling technique was used to select 80 ginger farmers. The results of the Cobb-Douglas production function show that seeds, fertilizers and manures on small farms, fertilizers and manures on large farms, and seeds, plant protection chemicals and manures on overall pool of farms can contribute to increase the yield of ginger. The results of allocative efficiency have highlighted that the MVP/MFC ratios are more than unity for seeds, fertilizers and manures on small farms, and seeds and plant protection chemicals on pooled farms. The study has suggested some measures also to enhance yield and hence farmers’ income in ginger production.
