Impact of Crop Insurance on Area and Production: A Balanced Panel Model Analy...inventionjournals
This article examines the impact of three important parameters such as insurance participation (INSP), total sum insured (TSI) and total premium collected (TPC) on total area under cultivation and total production for Aman Paddy, Boro Paddy and Potato respectively in selected district Hooghly, West Bengal. The balance panel model has been used to justify the above argument. We have collected the requisite data from District Statistical Hand Books, Economic Review of West Bengal and from the Nodal Office of National Agriculture Insurance Company of India Limited, Kolkata. Our empirical finding is that both the total sum insured (TSI) and total premium collected are incentive to increase the area of these crops. The insurance participation (INSP) and total sum insured (TSI) both assist to increase the production of all crops. But the influence of total premium collected (TPC) which is different, just for Aman Paddy is non-cooperative to increase the production. We have observed an adverse significant effect of insurance participation on total area under cultivation for all crops. JEL Classification: C13, C22, Q14

Analysis of the Implementation of the Project of Revitalization of Health Hut...inventionjournals
USAID through its implementing agencyAfricare, committed since 2006 to support the health district Goudomp in improving the services offered at the health huts especially in the fight against malnutrition, diarrhea, malaria and acute respiratory infections (ARI) in children aged 0 to 5 years. The general objective of this study is to analyze the USAID Community Health program implementation at the boxes in the Health District of Goudomp.A cross-sectional study with a survey of knowledge and practices of mothers or guardians of children from 0 to 59 months and an assessment on the quality of services in health huts of the areas targeted by the project was conducted from 2 to 5 May 2009 at the health district of Goudomp. The home delivery rate is 48.5% among persons surveyed and 18.7% gave birth in the Health Hut. On assistance to childbirth 26.4% of the women surveyed were assisted by a midwife or a community health worker. 80.3% of children were weighed every month for the last 3 months preceding the survey.The ARI care for children took place in more than 1/3 of cases (36.5%) at the health hut against 31.8% at the stations or health center. 1/3 fevers were also treated at the health huts.In terms of the cleanliness of the yard and premises, additional efforts must be made because 13 of the 19 huts visited were found fit contrary to the basic survey where 20 of the 23 huts visited were found fit. It is also the prevention of infections which is very low as practiced by 8 of the 19 huts visited. The implementation of strategies involving associations such as groupings of promoting women and youth groups should be preferred in order to allow greater involvement of the population. The success of this project will undoubtedly improve the reduction of maternal and child mortality in the health district of Goudomp.

Islamic fundamentalism, gender and new hermeneuticsinventionjournals
Control of women has been worldwide one of the most common subjects of fundamentalisms. Claiming allegiance to their sacred text, interpretative authority (monopoly of interpretation) and legitimacy for its implementation, the fundamentalists in their will to power deny to women equal conditions to those ones offered to men, claiming a hierarchical distinction between men and women in the social order as well as an ontological distinction between them, being men considered naturally superior to women. This article aims to clarify the relationship between Islamic fundamentalism and the domination of women and argue about the importance of the emerging feminist Hermeneutics in the context of Islam for the confrontation of female subjugation.
Impact of Road Infrastructure on Agricultural Development and Rural Road Infr...inventionjournals
Agriculture plays an essential role in the process of economic development of less developed countries like India. Besides providing food to nation, agriculture releases labour, provides saving, contributes to market of industrial goods and earns foreign exchange. Agricultural development is an integral part of overall economic development. Road transport plays an important role in agricultural development. This is because it is the major means of transporting agricultural produce from the farms to the markets as well as to various urban communities. Development of road infrastructure is imperative for agriculture and overall economic growth as also improving the quality of life. Better roads can reduce transaction costs associated with agricultural activities and in so doing have the potential to reduce the costs of acquiring inputs, to increase output prices, and to permit entry into new and more profitable activities. Governments frequently are involved in other dimensions of agricultural activities, and there is an a priori strong case for governments to undertake these investments given the public goods nature of roads. Public investments can play several roles in creating the enabling environment necessary to stimulate agricultural growth.
“Economic Analysis of Onion Production in Sujanagar and Santhia Areas of Pabn...inventionjournals
The study investigated the productivity, profitability and resource use efficiency of onion production in Sujanagar and Santhia areas of Pabna district, Bangladesh. The multi-stage sampling technique was employed for collecting primary data from a sample of 100 onion farmers elected randomly from four villages in the study area. Findings indicated that the socio-economic characteristics played important role in producing onion where most of the farmers were male, middle aged (41-60), more or less experienced and illiterate and Cobb-Douglas production function was applied for estimating the onion production function which implied the elasticity of output with respect to seed, cultivation, fertilizer, insecticide labor and irrigation that were positive values of 0.136, 0.244, 0.211, 0.130, 0.159 and 0.200 respectively and also significant. The yields, costs of production and net benefit of onion production were 1535.6 kg, Tk. 26329.63 and Tk. 26883.48 per bigha respectively which proved that the onion production was profitable over the study area. But the onion producers faced some major problems such as the lack of appropriate storage facility and technical knowledge, lack of efficient human labor and its higher price, unavailability of high yielding seed and higher input cost in the study area.
