Irrigation, by and large, depends upon groundwater and around a quarter to one third level of irrigation extracted by groundwater in India. Hence it is hypothesized that electricity consumption in irrigation causes the agricultural production in India. It is tested by Granger Causality techniques during the period 1970-71 to 2009-10 and found the unidirectional causality running from electricity consumption to yield.
