This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study examined occupational diversification among rural households in Andhra Pradesh. The specific objectives of the study are: (i) To examine the occupational structure of households in different regions of rural Andhra Pradesh (ii) To assess the level of unemployment, underemployment and poverty in different categories of households (iii) To find out various socio-economic factors affecting employment pattern in different regions and among households, and (iv) To suggest policy measures to reduce unemployment and underemployment. The study is based on National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) unit household data from its 50th and 55th rounds on employment and unemployment surveys for the periods 1993-94 and 1999-2000 respectively. Descriptive statistics, multinomial logit model and simple linear regression analyses were used to achieve above objectives. Among males 43 percent of total workforce engaged in self-employment in agriculture followed by casual labourer in agriculture (27%) and self-employment in industry (11%) in Andhra Pradesh. Among females 40 percent belongs to self-employed in agriculture and another 40 to percent to casual labourer in agriculture. About 9 percent were self-employed in industry. Casual labourer were mostly illiterate, belongs to schedule castes and living below poverty level. While most of the regular employed were rich and higher educated. Even though unemployment was high among higher educated, higher education helps in occupational diversification towards high remunerative non-agricultural sector in both sexes. Non-agricultural workers were having high wage earnings compared to agricultural worker. With the increase of educational level there was a corresponding increase in wage earnings for regular employed in non-agricultural workers, while for casual labourer in agriculture workers there was no corresponding increase in wage income to higher education. About 10% of children are workers. About 50% of females are engaged in other household activities (non-market). Imparting education to people should get priority with special focus on entrepreneurship development. Effective implementation of Minimum Wages Act is required. Women and other weaker sections encouraged in participation of non-agricultural activities.

Download or read book Farmer Education and Farm Efficiency written by Dean T. Jamison and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the relationship between the education farmers have received and their subsequent efficiency as farm operators. The concern is with the self-employed in agriculture, the small farmer. The study is concerned solely with ascertaining empirically the effect of schooling on agricultural efficiency and, when possible, the effect of access to information as measured by exposure to extension services. The study uses data from Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand; related findings from several other countries of Africa, Asia, and Latin America are reviewed. Surveys of individual farms provide the data used in the empirical analyses. Analyses from Thailand indicate that farmers of all educational levels are maximizing profits. However, more educated farmers do have higher levels of profits, which reflect the higher levels of productivity found in the production function analyses. Education has little effect on market efficiency. Higher levels of education and exposure to extension services increase the probabilities of using chemical fertilizers. The effects of education were much more likely to be positive in modernizing agricultural environments rather than in traditional ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Recent Years India Has Made All-Round Rapid Progress. The Performance Of The Indian Economy In 2004-05 So Far Has Exceeded Expectations Formed At The Beginning Of The Year. According To The Advance Estimate Of The Central Statistical Organisation (Cso) Released On February 7, 2005, The Economy Is Likely To Grow 6.9 Per Cent In 2004-05.In Spite Of Fast Advancement In Several Fields, India Is Still Suffering From A Large Fiscal Deficit Which Has Risen To An Alarming Level. During The Year 2004-05, The Fiscal Deficit At The Centre Stood At A Whopping Sum Of Rs.1,51,144 Crore, I.E. 4.4 Per Cent Of The Gross Domestic Product (Gdp). The Revenue Deficit Amounted Rs.95,312 Crore. The Curve Of Fiscal Deficit Has Risen Sharply From The Year 1997-98 Mainly Because Of Expenditure On Current Account. The Main Reasons For This Alarming Fiscal Deficit Are: Populist Measures Of The Central And State Governments, Like Subsidies On Kerosene Oil, Diesel, Petroleum, Gas, Fertilisers, Power For Agriculturists, Large Losses Of Public Sector Undertakings, Interest Payment On Ever-Increasing Public Debt, Increase In Salaries And Pensions Resulting From The Recommendations Of Pay Commissions, Etc. The Global Rating Agency Standard And Poor S (S & P) Has Stated That Even The Union Budget 2005-06 Shows A Lack Of Success In Reducing The Country S Deficit Burden.It Is Hoped That The Book Would Be Found Useful By The Researchers And Students Of Economics, Businessmen, Government Executives Concerned With The Formulation And Execution Of Economic Policies, Parliamentarians And Legislators, And The General Readers Interested In Knowing The Changes That Are Taking Place In Our Economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book examines the interactions between India’s economic development, agricultural production, and nutrition through the lens of a “Food Systems Approach (FSA).” The Indian growth story is a paradoxical one. Despite economic progress over the past two decades, regional inequality, food insecurity and malnutrition problems persist. Simultaneously, recent trends in obesity along with micro-nutrient deficiency portend to a future public health crisis. This book explores various challenges and opportunities to achieve a nutrition-secure future through diversified production systems, improved health and hygiene environment and greater individual capability to access a balanced diet contributing to an increase in overall productivity. The authors bring together the latest data and scientific evidence from the country to map out the current state of food systems and nutrition outcomes. They place India within the context of other developing country experiences and highlight India’s status as an outlier in terms of the persistence of high levels of stunting while following global trends in obesity. This book discusses the policy and institutional interventions needed for promoting a nutrition-sensitive food system and the multi-sectoral strategies needed for simultaneously addressing the triple burden of malnutrition in India.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘India...has an information space packed with numerous sources and agents – from politicians and activists to profiteers and extortionists – all competing for attention and legitimacy in a growing information market... Whom does one believe?’ The political manipulation and simplification of information about a dizzyingly complex society have fashioned certain ‘truths’ about India. These truths have resulted in the creation of major religious and caste identities, which have been the defining features of the country’s politics and history for over 200 years. An unsparing study of how this situation has come about, The Truth about Us explores answers to crucial questions: Is India a homogenous Hindu nation sprinkled with minorities, or a pluralistic, heterogeneous one? Is our knowledge of the inequalities in our society founded on facts or perceptions? What are the real origin stories of India’s social categories, and how are they being constructed and challenged today? At a time when India is in the throes of an existential debate, convulsed by contesting claims over identity and history, Hindutva and Dalit consciousness, nationalism and freedom of speech, and the rights and realities of minorities, this deeply provocative book is urgent reading for every thinking Indian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ending poverty and stabilizing climate change will be two unprecedented global achievements and two major steps toward sustainable development. But the two objectives cannot be considered in isolation: they need to be jointly tackled through an integrated strategy. This report brings together those two objectives and explores how they can more easily be achieved if considered together. It examines the potential impact of climate change and climate policies on poverty reduction. It also provides guidance on how to create a “win-win†? situation so that climate change policies contribute to poverty reduction and poverty-reduction policies contribute to climate change mitigation and resilience building. The key finding of the report is that climate change represents a significant obstacle to the sustained eradication of poverty, but future impacts on poverty are determined by policy choices: rapid, inclusive, and climate-informed development can prevent most short-term impacts whereas immediate pro-poor, emissions-reduction policies can drastically limit long-term ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The India Migration Report 2017 examines forced migration caused by political conflicts, climate change, disasters (natural and man-made) and development projects. India accounts for large numbers of internally displaced people in the world. Apart from conflicts and disasters, over the years development projects (including urban redevelopment and beautification), often justified as serving the interests of the people and for public good, have caused massive displacements in different parts of the country, disrupting the lives and livelihoods of millions of people. The interdisciplinary essays presented here combine a rich mix of research methods and include in-depth case studies on aspects of development-induced displacement affecting diverse groups such as peasants, religious and ethnic minorities, the poor in urban and rural areas, and women, leading to their exclusion and marginalization. The struggles and protests movements of the displaced groups across regions and their outcomes are also assessed. This volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of development studies, economics, sociology and social anthropology and migration studies.
