Considering the importance of agricultural productivity growth for raising the standard of living, the paper analyzed the impact of some production variables (input) on agricultural productivity growth (output) in India from 1969-70 to 2005-06. We selected time series data for aggregate analysis with the use of Cobb-Douglas production function. The estimation results showed that all key parameters are significant and are of the expected sign. Labour, capital and land have positive impact on agricultural productivity growth.
