ANJARIA (Chairman) DR. G. D. AGRAWAL SHRI K. G. SIVASWAMY DR. M. B. DESAI (Managing Editor) NOTE ON RESEARCH IN AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS During the last few years considerable progress has been made in research in agricultural economics in India. We felt that if a census of all such research work is compiled and published, it would be of immense value to research workers and would open up new opportunities for mutual co-operation and co-ordination. Therefore, with a view to collecting information on the subject, we issued, last year, a brief question- naire to Vice-Chancellors of 27 Universities; Chief Secretaries of 18 Part A and Part B State Governments; and 19 other Institutions doing research in agricultural economics. We received in all 49 replies to our questionnaire. Out of 13 State Governments and 14 Universities which responded to the questionnaire, six Governments and six Universities stated that no research work had been done in their respective areas. However, some of the State Govern- ments and Universities directed our questionnaire to some of the educa- tional institutions and Departments in their areas. We received in all 22 replies from educational and other research institutions out of which five stated that no research work had been undertaken by them. We had thought of releasing the results of this enquiry at the time of our last Annual Conference held at Trivandrum. But as we did not get adequate number of replies in time, we had to withhold publication of the same. We now publish the information in the form of a statement giving the names of Institutions and the research undertaken by them. It will be seen that during the last ten years, considerable research work has been done in University Departments, Colleges, Government and other Research Institutions. It is particularly gratifying to note that agricultural economics has attracted the attention of many research students studying for various post-graduate •degrees of the different Universities. A number of Universities and Governments, however, do not still have separate research departments with adequate facilities for conduct' ing research in agricultural economics. Another point that deserves t° be noted is that much of the research work done remains unpublished, probably due to paucity of funds. Systematic editing and publication of the research would undoubtedly be an invaluable addition to the available literature on agricultural economics. In this connection, we would like to invite the attention of all research workers to our Journal which would always welcome articles based on research in this subject. We do hope that research workers will avail themselves of this facility. We take this opportunity to thank all those who were good enough to respond to our questionnaire. It is our intention to publish fr0111 time to time a statement of research work done in agricultural economics in India. We, therefore, request all Institutions doing research in agri- cultural economics to communicate to the Society every year about the new enquiries completed, as well as, on hand. 70 72.• 's "e -6 RESEARCH IN AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS IN INDIA Hand Serial Name of the Institution Past Enquiries Enquiries on No. Food (A) UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES (1) Working of the Growth of Crops Act and the Levy System in (1) Enquiry into the Working Of InduS- in Bombay 1.

  • District Population Statistics, 4-Meerut, Uttar Pradesh
    I Census of India, 195 1 DISTRICT POPULATION STATISTICS UTTAR PRADESH 4-MEEl{UT DISTRICT 315.42 ALLAHABAD: TING AND STATIONERY, UTTAR PRADESH, INDIA 1951 1952 MEE DPS Price, Re.1-S. FOREWORD THE Uttar Pradesh Government asked me in March. 1952, (0 'supply them for the purposes of elections to local bodies population statistics with ,separation for scheduled castes (i) mohalla/ward-wise for urban areas, and (ii) village-wise for rural areas. The Census Tabulation Plan did nbt provide for sorting of scheduled cast<;s population for areas smaller than a tehsil or urban tract and the request from the Uttar Pradesh Government came when the slip sorting had been finished and (he Tabulation Offices closed. As the census slips are mixed up for the purposes of sorting in one lot for a tehsil or urban tract, collection of data regarding scheduled castes population by moh'allas/wards and villages would have involved enormous labour and expense if sorting of the slips had been taken up afresh. Fortunately, however, a secondary census record, viz. the National Citizens' Register, in which each slip has been copied, was available. By singular foresight it had been pre­ pared mohalla/ward-wise for urban areas and village-wise for rural areas. Th e required information has, therefore. been extracted from. this record, 2. In the above circumstances there is a slight difference in the figures of population as arrived at by an earlier sorting of the slips and as now determined by counting from the National Citizens' Register. This difference has been accen mated by an order passed by me during the later coum from the National Register of Citizens as follows:- (i) Count Ahirwars of Farrukhabad District, Raidas and Bhagar as ·Chamars'.

  • Section-VIII : Laboratory Services
    Section‐VIII Laboratory Services 8. Laboratory Services 8.1 Haemoglobin Test ‐ State level As can be seen from the graph, hemoglobin test is being carried out at almost every FRU studied However, 10 percent medical colleges do not provide the basic Hb test. Division wise‐ As the graph shows, 96 percent of the FRUs on an average are offering this service, with as many as 13 divisions having 100 percent FRUs contacted providing basic Hb test. Hemoglobin test is not available at District Women Hospital (Mau), District Women Hospital (Budaun), CHC Partawal (Maharajganj), CHC Kasia (Kushinagar), CHC Ghatampur (Kanpur Nagar) and CHC Dewa (Barabanki). 132 8.2 CBC Test ‐ State level Complete Blood Count (CBC) test is being offered at very few FRUs. While none of the sub‐divisional hospitals are having this facility, only 25 percent of the BMCs, 42 percent of the CHCs and less than half of the DWHs contacted are offering this facility. Division wise‐ As per the graph above, only 46 percent of the 206 FRUs studied across the state are offering CBC (Complete Blood Count) test service. None of the FRUs in Jhansi division is having this service. While 29 percent of the health facilities in Moradabad division are offering this service, most others are only a shade better. Mirzapur (83%) followed by Gorakhpur (73%) are having maximum FRUs with this facility. CBC test is not available at Veerangna Jhalkaribai Mahila Hosp Lucknow (Lucknow), Sub Divisional Hospital Sikandrabad, Bullandshahar, M.K.R. HOSPITAL (Kanpur Nagar), LBS Combined Hosp (Varanasi),

  • Integrated Milk Co-Operatives in North-West Uttar Pradesh: Organisation, Functioning and Performance
    Ind. Jn. ofAgri. Econ. Vol.51, No.4, Oct.-Dec. 1996 Integrated Milk Co-operatives in North-West Uttar Pradesh: Organisation, Functioning and Performance V.P.S. Arora and T.S. 13hogal* The first co-operative activity in dairy enterprise in the country started with the orga- nisation of Katra Co-operative Milk Society in 1917 at Allahabad (Uttar Pradesh).In 1938, the Lucicnow Milk Producers' Union was established, followed by similar establishments at Allahabad(1941), Varanasi(1947), Kanpur (1948), Haldwani (1949), and Meerut(1950). To provide effective impetus to the dairy development programme in the state, the State Co-operative Dairy Federation was established in 1962. The Operation-Flood 1,11 and ifi schemes were launched in the state in 1970-71, 1982 and 1987 respectively. At present, about 60 districts of the state are covered under the dairy development programme of the co-operative sector. In this paper an attempt is made to analyse and present the organisational set-up,system of functioning and performance of integrated dairy co-operatives in the north-west region of Uttar Pradesh (U.P.). RESEARCH METHODOLOGY The study is conducted in the north-west region of U.P., well known for progressive development in agriculture and dairying. Through random sampling, Meerut district was selected for an in-depth study. From Meerut district, two blocks one having high concen- tration and the other having low concentration of milk animals per hectare of crop area were selected randomly. From each sample block six villages having a dairy co-operative and ten milk producers from each sample village were randomly selected for the study.
