The results of compound growth analysis show that growth was negatively significant in area of sorghum and pearl millet, positively significant in production of sorghum and pearl millet, positively significant in yield of sorghum and pearl millet. The results of instability indicated that variability in area and productivity of millets was lower than that production.
