India is considered the world’s largest democracy. We are such a big democracy that the prices of a single vegetable can result into sleepless nights for the government in power. What can be the probable reason? Is there a fault with our economic system? Our economic system, not so long ago was lauded for its inherent strength. When the whole world was bearing the brunt of recession, we smooth sailed through it. The problem is that, there is a huge gap between those affected and people who can make a difference i.e. the general masses and the government. There is a need for the government to work at the grass roots level and try to understand the problems of the common man. The common man on his side should also understand that the agricultural output in India fluctuates due to too much dependence on rain and natural methods of farming. Hence he should exercise restraint and should not panic so easily. The present issue of SAARANSH emphasizes the humane side of management. It includes an article on the importance and effectiveness of training in improving the organizational performance. From the view point of marketers, it is important not only to understand the psyche of the decision maker but also to understand the psyche of the decision influencer. In a household, the woman plays the pivotal role in influencing the buying decision. Hence understanding her personality is crucial for the success of any organization. The present issue includes an article titled “Personality and purchase influence of women”. Management science has given us such effective scientific tools that planning and execution has become very easy. Operation research and specifically Linear Programming go a long way in helping organizations plan their profits. It aids in finding out whether the resources available are being optimally used or not and thereby helping in profit maximization. The journal includes an article on use of Linear Programming for profit planning and maximization. I would also take the opportunity to wish our esteemed readers a very happy and prosperous 2011. May the New Year bring lots of success and happiness to you and your family.

Serletis [email protected] Deputy Project Leader Brian Allen [email protected] Laura Bloodgood, Joanna Bonarriva, John Fry, John Giamalva, Katherine Linton, Brendan Lynch, and Marin Weaver Primary Reviewers Alexander Hammer and Deborah McNay Office of Economics Michael Ferrantino, Jesse Mora, Jose Signoret, and Marinos Tsigas Administrative Support Phyllis Boone, Monica Reed, and Wanda Tolson Under the direction of Jonathan R. Coleman, Chief Agriculture and Fisheries Division Abstract This report describes and analyzes policies and other factors that affect U.S. agricultural exports to India. The findings suggest that India’s high agricultural tariffs are a significant impediment to U.S. agricultural exports and that certain Indian nontariff measures (NTMs), including sanitary and phyosanitary measures, substantially limit or effectively prohibit certain U.S. agricultural products. Agriculture is vital to India’s economy, accounting for a substantial share of employment (60 percent) and GDP (17 percent).

  • Lessons from Indian Flagship Programmes: the Disconnect for Evaluation Framework 1
    Lessons from Indian Flagship Programmes: The Disconnect for Evaluation Framework 1 Abstract This paper critically examines the management information system (MIS) in thirteen Indian flagship programmes that are under operation for quite sometimes now. Yet the MIS for these programmes has not reached maturity and as many as four programmes do not have any MIS. Clearly, there is a disconnect among the information gathering, monitoring and measuring impacts in the development programmes. Key Words: Management information system, Flagship programmes, Log-frame hierarchy, Result-based monitoring and evaluation, Implementation framework Introduction The MIS plays a critical role in the implementation of programme in terms of monitoring periodic progress. A well designed MIS facilitates flow of information among various levels and enables setting up of the necessary feedback mechanism for planning and management of a programme, project or policy. A comprehensive MIS is a necessary condition for taking informed and timely decisions including those related to operational, strategic and tactical ones. A well designed management information system (MIS) must be simple and easy to comprehend by the different stakeholders of the programme at national, sub-national and community levels; and it should provide reliable information. The information should be specific, accurate and verifiable; and facilitate timely management decision in terms of frequency and flow of information (i.e. a two-way feedback system in a decentralized framework), and management of database. Information generated by the system should be easy to access, process and use thereby facilitating wider dissemination and it should be amenable to computer software. However, literature on information system in the national level planning and decision making process is scarce and most of the literature is contextualized to organizations that facilitates managers to take various decisions (Gupta, 1996).
