| Abstract | Agricultural price forecasting is one of the challenging areas of time series forecasting. The feed-forward time-delay neural network (TDNN) is one of the promising and potential methods for time series prediction. However, empirical evaluations of TDNN with autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model often yield mixed results in terms of the superiority in forecasting performance. In this paper, the price forecasting capabilities of TDNN model, which can model nonlinear relationship, are compared with ARIMA model using monthly wholesale price series of oilseed crops traded in different markets in India. Most earlier studies of forecast accuracy for TDNN versus ARIMA do not consider pretesting for nonlinearity. This study shows that the nonlinearity test of price series provides reliable guide to post-sample forecast accuracy for neural network model. The TDNN model in general provides better forecast accuracy in terms of conventional root mean square error values as compared to ARIMA model for nonlinear patterns. The study also reveals that the neural network models have clear advantage over linear models for predicting the direction of monthly price change for different series. Such direction of change forecasts is particularly important in economics for capturing the business cycle movements relating to the turning points. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
