Most of the metrics studies use online databases for retrieving published literature for the analysis. Scientometrics is the science of measuring and analyzing science research. In practice, scientometrics is often done using bibliometrics, which is a measurement of the impact of (scientific) publications.

ABSTRACT Women are in subjugated position in various socio-political structures in Tamilnadu a state considered having radical society in culture and politics among Indian states. Inspite of the emancipations achieved through education and cultural renaissance happened in recent past, gender bias persists across the society among all stratified communities. The International commission for Women has categorized the violence’s against women into few types. Almost all the categories of violence’s are found prevalent in Tamilnadu. The increasing socialization of women through opportunities emerged in economic and political spheres during the last few decades starting from 1990’s have unfortunately recorded with concomitant impact on increasing violence’s against them. The conventional problems of women in society and family had been surpassed by problems for women in working place and public spheres at present. Similarly the state and society as perpetrators of crime against women have been recorded high than the domestic violence’s a recent trend in gender question. Hence the subaltern position of women has been reinvigorated at a new phase of socio-cultural condition. This paper try explains the depth of the crisis through providing statistical data related to the last decade of 20th century. The data are observed from government publications and news reports. In-depth interviews with victims also have been used as primary data collection method.

The study also reveals that farming experience showed a positive and highly significant relationship with the adoption of the respondents on eco-friendly technologies. Lack of knowledge to identify the bio-agents was the foremost personal constraints expressed by majority of the farmers. Key words : Eco-friendly technologies, farming experience, bio-agents. Introduction are recommended by extension workers and practiced Eco-friendly practices are simple, low cost, pollution by farmers. Eco-friendly agricultural technologies are free techniques and operations that are socially and simple, low cost, pollution free, techniques and operations economically accepted.
