A relatively recent econometric technique from Bai and Perron (2003) allows us to dynamically learn break dates from the data.

The strucchange package in R uses a procedure outlined by Zeileis et al (2005) for this purpose.

The algorithm for computing the optimal breakpoints given the number of breaks is based on a dynamic programming approach. The underlying idea is that of the Bellman principle.

The algorithm for computing the optimal breakpoints given the number of breaks is based on a dynamic programming approach. The underlying idea is that of the Bellman principle. Underlying Model (m breakpoints) yi = xT i βj + ui (i = ij−1 + 1; j = 1,...,m+1)

Intend to explore for breaks endogenously in agricultural time series data. Studies on structural breaks in growth rates of agricultural GDP may not be the be-all and end-all. ∴ look at breaks in yields of principal crops for more granular level detail.

Intend to explore for breaks endogenously in agricultural time series data. Studies on structural breaks in growth rates of agricultural GDP may not be the be-all and end-all. ∴ look at breaks in yields of principal crops for more granular level detail. Will apply Bai Perron (2003) technique to dynamically find break points for individual crops.

It would be interesting to see whether the sub-periods are anything of the kind Ramesh Chand (2012) obtains for Agriculture GDP growth rate.
