The impact of the industrial effluents was analyzed with particular reference to Sali rice. The study depicted that the net sown area was less in the areas close to both industrial units due to the conversion of productive land to wastelands, which results in changes in cropping patterns and crop productivity close to industrial units compared to areas further away from industrial units. The findings also revealed that farms polluted with industrial effluents had much higher labour expenses, pesticide prices, and wastewater disposal costs, raising the overall cultivation cost. The study suggested treating the effluents appropriately before being disposed of in the environment to lessen the effect on agricultural output. For the brick kiln industry, agricultural land should not be exploited, and BKI regulations need to be strictly regulated because many unregistered BKIs are sprouting up throughout Assam.","PeriodicalId":43367,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Economics and Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44872990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Still, prolonged war and political instability in the country have weakened internal food security, intensified the dependence on imports of food items, and made the country suffer a chronic agricultural trade deficit.This engulfing agricultural trade deficit is attributed to a relative growth in agricultural exports and imports and a relative change in export prices.The present study attempted to examine the exchange competitiveness of traded commodities by estimating a ratio of export prices to import prices.The results showed that the commodity terms of trade of agricultural exports versus agricultural imports of Afghanistan with the rest of the world had increased during the study period. It was suggested that the country focus on producing quality products with a higher market value at a low-costto gain from international trade.","PeriodicalId":43367,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Economics and Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48171177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was based on the primary data collected from a sample of 360 farmers (180 insured and 180 non-insured). The findings revealed that non-adopters face the most difficulty in adopting the scheme due to delays in the payment of indemnity. At the same time, adopters had the most challenging time due to a lack of awareness. Moreover, the study successfully brought out various customized suggestions based on the experiences of farmers that can improve the implementation of schemes, particularly in the state. It included creating more awareness among the farmers, carrying out more crop-cutting experiments, increasing the indemnity level, providing assured compensation to the farmers, and providing insurance against wild animals, etc. Targeted policy interventions are needed to refine and update crop insurance products to make them more effective and valuable in various farming situations.","PeriodicalId":43367,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Economics and Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44425873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In drip, the yield was 19.02 per cent higher, indicating a significant increase in profitability (`77154.6 per ha) compared to the traditional irrigation method. The contract farming model also benefits contract farmers by providing `135224 per ha more profit than non-contract farmers. The volume and value of banana exports continuously increased in the last eight years. During the study period, India was found to have a comparative disadvantage and lack of competitiveness in the international market in exporting bananas. Therefore, enhancing production, productivity, cost-effectiveness, and quality is essential to improve India's competitiveness in the global banana market.","PeriodicalId":43367,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Economics and Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46420927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The empirical results revealed that financial development, economic growth, and government expenditure were helpful in reducing poverty in India. In addition, the causality showed that there was bidirectional causation between economic growth and government expenditure, while there was unidirectional causation between financial development and poverty. Based on the empirical findings, the possible policy implications were that banks should provide more funds at a low cost that will increase income and reduce poverty directly and indirectly. Furthermore, the government should invest more in developmental activities, formulate job-oriented policies and educational schemes that provide jobs, enhance human capital, and spur long-term economic growth.","PeriodicalId":43367,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Economics and Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47278065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study used the data from 150 sample households in the three forest divisions of the Jammu region of Jammu and Kashmir State to analyze the significance of economic gains obtained from NTFPs. Data collection was carried out through face-to-face interviews. This study found that NTFP income contributed 29 per cent, and on-farm and off-farm income contribute 16 and 55 per cent to the total household income, respectively. Major NTFPs included Gucchi (Morchella esculenta), Patis (Aconitum chasmanthum), Nag chhatri (Trillium govanianum), Muskbala (Valeriana hardwickii), Banafsaha (Viola canescence), Dhoop (Jurinea macrocephala), Kaurd (Picorhiza kurroa), Zakham-e-Hayat (Bergenia ciliata), Kasrot (Diplazium esculentum), wild honey and Jungli thome (Allium sativum) were collected. Regression analyses showed that NTFP availability, agriculture as the main occupation, NTFP collection experience, and on-farm income positively contributed to the dependent variable. In contrast, the regression coefficient of off-farm income and source of information were negative contributors to the NTFPs' income. The study further suggested that providing education and other skill development training to local people in the collection, storage, and scientific grading of the NTFPs should be conducted.","PeriodicalId":43367,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Economics and Development","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47103375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
