Telangana is the 29th state of India, formed on the 2nd of June 2014. The state has an area of 1, 12,077 Sq. Km. and has a population of 3, 50, 03,674, with Hyderabad as its capital. The state was formed as a result of the split of Andhra Pradesh state. The state is land locked by (new) Andhra Pradesh to the south and east, Maharashtra and Karnataka to the west, and Odisha and Chhattisgarh to the north. The Economy of Telangana is mainly supported by agriculture. Agricultural growth throughout global history has been the pro-genitor of broad based economic growth and development as linkages between farm and non-farm economies generated widely based employment, income and growth. India is the fourth largest producer of oilseeds in terms of output and second in terms of area under oilseeds. Two important rivers of India, the Godavari and Krishna, flow through the state, providing irrigation. Farmers in Telangana mainly depend on rain-fed water sources for irrigation. Rice is the major food crop. Other important local crops are cotton, sugar cane, mango and tobacco. There are many multi-state irrigation projects in development, including Godavari River Basin Irrigation Projects. Castor is the important oilseed crop in Telangana.It is sown in July-August and harvested from January to March. The crop is concentrated mainly in Mahaboobnagar and Nalgonda districts.  In this paper an attempt has been made to study the technological development in Castor production.  The exponential function was used to determine the trends in area, production and yield of Castor crops.  The Cobb-Douglas Function was adopted to study the technological changes in Castor production.
