摘要：The present study entitled “Apple cultivation in Kullu district of Himachal Pradesh: A cost analysis” has been carried out in two selected blocks i.e Banjar and Naggar of Kullu District in Himachal Pradesh by taking representative samples of 70 farmers. The farmers having less than one hectare of land were placed in group of marginal farmers, 1-2 ha as small, 2-4 ha as semi medium and more than 4 ha as Medium farmers . Distributions of the samples were done accordingly to their apple holding size. Establishment cost on per farm on the basis and per hectare basis has been worked out to from Rs 23678 and Rs 261932 respectively for overall farms. A total cost of plantation for marginal, small, semi medium and medium farms were 13660.33, 21333.86, 37136.03 and 91808.68 rupees respectively. Whereas, it can be said that the marginal area consuming trees show less price contribution than that of the medium farms which contributes much higher economy to the district financial infrastructure.
