Keywords: Development Of Terracotta , Pottery Craft , commercialisation , socio economic . INTRODUCTION BACKGROND OF TERRACOTTA AND POTTERY ART: The term 'TERRACOTTA' is derived from the words 'Terra' and 'Cotta'. 'Terra' means 'Earth' and 'Cotta' means 'Baked'. Both the words are of Latin and Italian origin. An object of art made of a composition of clay and sand and baked with earthen colour, a brownish red, is Terracotta. Terracotta is one of the oldest crafts that human beings ever introduced on this earth. It was once considered to be the poor men's craft. But in course of time, it has made its access and occupied a distinct identity among all classes of people by its aesthetic value. Terracotta Art in India has been flourishing since the times of Indus Valley Civilisation. Terracotta Art in India is another form of clay art of the country generally brownish orange in colour. Various excavations at Mohenjodaro and Harappa have unearthed several terracotta items in the form of various figures and figurines. Terracotta figures also have a ritualistic aspect associated with it. This becomes evident from the fact that many terracotta figures of deities are used in a number of auspicious occasions. In fact, terracotta art in India is considered mystical because it incorporates within the five vital elements like air, fire, earth, water and ether. In a number of states in India, the terracotta figures have a lot of prominence. For instance the impressive Ayanaar horse from Tamil Nadu represents the largest terracotta sculpture ever made and is constructed from coiling and beating, the same techniques used for making vessels. Although votive terracotta is made by members of the Hindu potter caste, the customer is often a member of the Tribal community. The relief plaques depicting images of Tribal deities are made in Rajasthan and the varied styles of horses and tigers recorded in Gujarat are also made for Tribal clientele. Madhya Pradesh is represented by the highly embellished elephants offered in forest shrines and also by women`s wall decoration. This involves using clay pigments and decorating techniques similar to pottery creation and modelling processes. In West Bengal the snake goddess Manasa is worshipped through a terracotta tree shrine constructed from multiple thrown and modelled parts. Another major form of West Bengal terracotta finds its artistic channel in the horses. They are famous almost all over the country for their handsome looks. In Gujarat and Rajasthan terracotta panels and storage jars painted in white are famous. In Orissa and Madhya Pradesh the roof tops with profuse terracotta works are also a part of the terracotta work. Besides, the terracotta and pottery of Madhya Pradesh is well known for their artistic excellence. The countries famous for Terracotta practice other than India are ITALY, CHINA, FRANCE, JAPAN, IRAQ, EGYPT etc. In India, the places, other than Asharikandi, where Terracotta and Sudip Ghosh,“A STUDY ON THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF TERRACOTTA AND POTTERY CRAFT IN THE VILLAGE OF ASHARIKANDI, DHUBRI DISTRICT OF ASSAM ” Indian Streams Research Journal | Volume 4 | Issue 2 | March 2014 | Online & Print 1 .

College, Howly, Dist: Barpeta, Assam. Abstract:-Terracotta Art in India has been flourishing since the time of Indus Valley Civilization. Various excavations at 'Mohenjodaro' and 'Harappa' have unearthed several terracotta items in the form of various figures and figurines. In India this art is considered mystical as it incorporates the five gifts of the mother nature- air, fire, water, earth and ether. In a number of states in India, such as, Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal and Assam, the terracotta figures still have a lot of prominence and represent the historic and cultural significance of this traditional art. In India, the single largest cluster where both Terracotta and Pottery crafts are found and practiced in traditional way is Asharikandi (Madaikhali) craft village which is also known as Terracotta Craft Village. The cluster is registered under the MSME- DI, Guwahati, Assam. But as a result of various marketing problems and inadequate marketing initiatives, the commercial potential of the unique art of this cluster still lay untapped. Hence, the study attempts to bring into light the various issues and challenges in marketing of the products manufactured in this cluster. The study is based on both primary and secondary data.

The promotion and development of this concept has the potential to impact farmers across the country as, in the long term, it would allow them to supplement their incomes. The concept of agri-tourism adds to the concept of rural tourism; agri-tourism aspires to attract tourists by giving them an insight into various farming practices across the country through inexpensive holiday packages that include educational experiences. Agri-tourism brings in additional revenue to the farmers but also initiative from their side and the entire community to build and maintain the adequate infrastructure to sustain a small-scale tourism industry. In India, the ATDC started the agri-tourism project on a pilot basis in Baramati, Maharashtra, in 2005. This saw an influx of around 8,700 tourists between October 2005 and October 2006 and by 2008, around 21,000 tourists had visited farms in Baramati. The role of ATDC is to provide consultancy, sales and marketing, and training to farmers for establishing agri-tourism centers on their farms. A 5-day training costs around USD 56. Expressing interest in this concept, 20 district collectors from Bihar visited Baramati for training in the concept of agri-tourism.
