“…The forces of urbanisation are the cause of the rural transformation. The factors like expanding markets, returns to livelihood opportunities, changes in land-use patterns and the inherent socio-demographic structure of villages (Pingali et al, 2019). Also, the reliance on cultivation as the main source of livelihood in rural areas is declining with the growth of smaller towns and non-farm livelihood opportunities.…”

Agriculture has been, for a very long period of time, the main activity for people in rural areas. The climate change, in addition, exiguity of farming land due to the growth of the population, farming has become difficult. Different regions of the world are not affected in an unequal number of disasters and coastal areas are more exposed. Governments, NGOs and researchers have tried to come up with some new remedies. The best way seems to be initiating some allied activities in farmers’ lives to improve their livelihoods. Are the farmers easily welcoming the new exit way to their misery? This study wants to know the interest of farmers towards livelihood enhancement activities through entrepreneurship from Thiurvallur district to Kanyakumari district in Tamil Nadu comprising 13 districts. The data was collected among 286 small landholders through a scheduled interview between October 2020 and February 2021. It wants to assess the existing facilities to improve farmers’ livelihood at their disposal. Major findings through SEM analysis have shown that, holding livestock, possessing machinery for agriculture, possessing other skills than farming to manage livelihood and the membership in self-help groups has a positive impact on the livelihood enhancement activity.

“…Vastly distinctive cultural realities between high‐income, industrialized nations, often referred to as the “Global North,” and developing nations referred to as the “Global South,” contribute to the need for theory and research specific to the challenges of familial incarceration in politically and culturally marginalized low‐income regions of the world that lie outside Europe and North America (Dados & Connell, 2012). Inconsistencies in penal policy, family structure, inefficient social safety net, and limited opportunities for economic advancement for women make spousal incarceration particularly consequential for wives of incarcerated men in India (Ahmad, 2014; Pingali et al, 2019; Sheikh & Gaurav, 2020). While incarcerated individuals and by extension their families are disproportionately disadvantaged persons throughout the world (cf.…”

Justice‐involved families in India are underserved despite concurrent challenges including inadequate penal systems and widespread poverty. Families provide emotional and financial support to incarcerated individuals—burdens that fall upon female kin who are underresourced. Women experiencing spousal incarceration in India are likely to be from marginalized sections of society, vulnerable to co‐occurring forms of oppression, making intersectional feminism a suitable theoretical framework to contextualize their lives. Through consistent interactions with the carceral institution, these women become integrated in the prison culture, experiencing secondary prisonization. Intersectional feminism helps understand variations in secondary prisonization for women inhabiting different social locations. However, this population remains understudied. We bridge the gap by building a contextualized understanding of this population using intersectional feminism, by attending to scholarship that illustrates sources of marginalization including exploitive informal work, a minoritized caste identity, and a minoritized religious identity. We offer recommendations for theory and research.

Soilless culture is emerging as a popular tool to grow agricultural and horticultural crops in open systems, closed systems, protected cultivation, vertical farming, and soil affected or stress-affected areas. The climatic factors and biometabolism are integrated in stimulating quality phenological growth and biochemical and physiological processes in soilless crop production. Soilless crop production (SCP) has immense potential to build a soilless green revolution and for sustaining crop production. Information on substrate and water based culture collected for the period from 1996 to 2022 is reviewed and analyzed in this work. The performance of crops in soilless culture improves morphological and physiological parameters compared with soil based cultivation. The distinct environmental factors positively influence soilless culture to exhibit cellular processes, biological processes, molecular processes, and the ecosystem in the crop. The impacts of ecological factors are more efficient in closed systems compared with open systems. The salient features of metabolites and biometabolism in substrate based media were identified with transcriptome analysis and found to be different compared with soil based cultivation. Developing simple nutrient formulations suited for soilless culture is essential to popularize this technology among marginal farmers.
