Land utilisation

  LAND UTILIZATION  Land is a scarce resource, whose supply is fixed for all practical purposes. At the same time, the demand for land for various competing purposes is continuously increasing with the increase in human population and economic growth.Land use pattern at any given time is determined by several factors including size of human and livestock population, the demand pattern, the technology in use, the cultural traditions, the location and capability of land, institutional factors like ownership pattern and rights scale regulation. Major Types of Land Utilization in India : As in all other countries, land in India is put to various uses. The utilization of land depends upon physical factors like topography, soil and climate as well as upon human factors such as the density of population, duration of occupation of the area,land tenure and technical levels of the people.There are spatial and temporal difference in land utilization due to the continued interplay of phys...

Farm mechanization

Farm Mechanization Meaning :  Mechanization of farms indicates the use of machines for conducting agricultural operations placing the traditional methods which involve human and animal labour.Thus mechanization is a process of replacing biological sources of energy involving animal and human labour to mechanized sources of energy which includes various machines like tractors, threshers, harvesters, impetus etc.It does not only includes the use of machines for tillage operations,harvesting and threshing of the farm produce but also includes power lifts for irigation,trucks for transporting of farm produce, processing machinery, dairy appliances, oil cessing, cotton ginning, rice handling etc. Benefits of Mechanisation of Agriculture The important benefits of farm mechanization are as follow: a.Mechanization and Farm Productivity: A number of field studies conducted to establish the relationship between mechanization and productivity have revealed that mechanization increase to great...

Factors of production

Factors of production  The factors of production viz. land, labour, capital and management when combined in proper proportion and then used wisely can help to achieve higher level of efficiency in farming business. Use of any resource beyond its capacity can result in its rapid depletion and deterioration which may cause severe damage to sustainability of farming. Similarly, under utilization of resources or misutilization of resources may result in high cost of production and thus lower the efficiency of agriculture.  Contribution of Land in agricultural development Land in agriculture may  be used in a restricted sense though is complex and affects agriculture in several ways.

Tokenization

Tokenization  Tokenization is the process of turning sensitive data into non-sensitive data called "tokens" that can be used in a database or internal system without bringing it into scope.  •It can be used to secure sensitive data by replacing the original data with an unrelated value of the same length and format.  •The tokens are then sent to an organization’s internal systems for use, and the original data is stored in a secure token vault. •The purpose of tokenization is to swap out sensitive data—typically payment card or bank account numbers—with a randomized number in the same format but with no intrinsic value of its own. •Tokenization is the process of removing sensitive data from your business systems by replacing it with an undecipherable token and storing the original data in a secure cloud data vault.  Token will be unique for a combination of card, token requestor (i.e. the entity which accepts request from the customer for tokenisation of a card and p...

Investment Multiplier

INVESTMENT MULTIPLIER The number of times by which the increase in ∆Y exceeds the increase in investment is called as Investment Multiplier.  Investment Multiplier or output multiplier refers to the number of times by which the increase in output/income ∆Y exceeds the increase in investment ∆I. It is measures as the ratio between change in output /income and change in investment.                                      k = ∆Y / ∆I Where k is the multiplier. Relationship between Multiplier and Marginal propensity to consume (MPC) There is direct relationship between Multiplier and MPC . Higher the value of MPC ,higher the multiplier .                   K =1 / 1- MpC This is because of the given reasons : a)Additional investment means additional expenditure in the economy, additional expenditure means additional income . b) Higher the value of MPC ,...
