Example: Data pertaining to area and production of coconut of Kerala state during period 1980-81 to 2005-06 are given below. (Data on area are given in ‘hectares (ha)’ and Production in ‘million nuts’ (mn).)

MS-EXCEL DATA FILE 

(Source of the data: Directorate of Economics and Statistics, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, 2005-2006)

1.         Draw scatter plots of area and production versus time.

2.         If the scatter plots in question 1 are S-shaped, fit the nonlinear models viz. Logistic, Gompertz and Monomolecular for the given data.

3.         Predict the value of the year 2005-2006 for each dependent variable by using each model and also compute percentage (%) forecast error.
