In 2002, when the shortage of rainfall was around the same as it is this year (20 per cent from the long-term average), agricultural growth fell to -7.2 per cent and, as a result, GDP growth in that year was just 3.8 per cent (average growth in the 5-year period 1997-2002 was 5.5 per cent).

| Mahesh Vyas: Don't worry about capital expenditure | 24-AUG-09 |
|
| The importance of capital formation in growth cannot be understated. Gross capital formation grew at a rate of nearly 16 per cent per annum in real terms over the six years ended 2008-09. This was when real GDP grew at the rate of 8.5 per cent per annum. In each of the last five years, growth in capital formation was much higher than the growth in the GDP. Thus, capital formation was a major direct source of growth for the economy in the recent past. |
