Abstract

In this paper, we consider the improved estimation of average production of peppermint at block level of Barabanki district of Uttar Pradesh State (India). We suggest certain estimators for population-mean. Here, population refers to production population as study variable and auxiliary-variable refers to Area of field. We study the sampling properties naming bias and MSE of estimators, which are presently proposed by us in the paper. We compare our proposed estimators with other ones existing in literature. For the support of the theoretical findings, we carry out a numerical study for the natural population on primary data collected from Banikodar Block of Barabanki District situated in Uttar Pradesh State.

Keywords- Population variable, Auxiliary variable, Ratio-estimator, MSE, PRE.
