The Effect of Microfinance on the Empowerment of Women and its Societal Consequences : A study of women self-help group members in Andhra Pradesh

Berglund, Knut-Erland January 2007 (has links)
<p>Microfinance and micro-credit practices have become a popular means of local development. In India, their expansion has been largest in Andhra Pradesh. These practices target primarily women, who are encouraged to construct self-help-groups in order to have a social basis for raising collateral and for receiving financial services. Microfinance has been perceived by the public as inducing strong positive effects on women’s empowerment and as strengthening the democratic fibre. From these standpoints, expansion and effects, it has been evaluated and analysed whether microfinance can empower women and if empowered women can make a difference in women’s and societal issues.</p>

Mango butter financial feasibility analysis: value added in the Chittoor District, Andhra Pradesh, India

Pendurthi, Sita Mahalakshmi January 1900 (has links)
Master of Agribusiness / Department of Agricultural Economics / Allen M. Featherstone / Mango butter is one of the byproducts from mangos that is mostly used in the cosmetic and soap industry. Hydraulic pressing is one way to extract the oil from the mango kernel. Hydraulic pressing is more cost effective for small scale processors due to both a relatively lower initial and operating cost. Moreover, the processing produces uncontaminated oil and a pure cake residue when compared to screw press or solvent extraction method. This thesis was undertaken to study the financial feasibility of value added to the mango by manufacturing mango butter in the Chittoor district, Andhra Pradesh India. The Totapuri mango variety is studied. A number of locations in India were evaluated for the manufacturing unit location considering the area of production, mango productivity and the presence of pulp factories for raw material sourcing. The analysis indicated that the Chittoor district in Andhra Pradesh, India has a cluster of mango pulp factories that are reliable sources of raw material. Indian consumers are generally quick to adopt new products with better experiences and more convenience. This study identifies additional uses for mango butter in countries that consume mango butter, and highlights products with which mango butter would be in competition. The advantages and limitations of competitors producing in the Indian market are discussed. The recommendation of this study is that entrepreneurs should study the sector thoroughly before investing in mango butter production. Project size and outlay of the depend upon the market size, the type of technology that will be used and how automated the project will be. New entrepreneurs may partner with existing merchant exporters initially to gain entry into international markets. Once entry is obtained, vast export potential for such products can be slowly tapped.

Irrigation with wastewater in Andhra Pradesh, India, a water balance evaluation along Peerzadiguda canal / Bevattning med avloppsvatten i AndhraPradesh, Indien, en vattenbalansutvärdering längs Peerzadiguda kanal

Hytteborn, Julia January 2005 (has links)
<p>Studien behandlar bevattningsgivornas storlek av avloppsvatten längs Peerzadiguda bevattningskanal i Andhra Pradesh, Indien. Peerzadiguda bevattningskanal är belägen norr om Musifloden nedströms Hyderabad som är huvudstad i delstaten Andhra Pradesh i Indien.</p><p>I regioner med knappa vattenresurser kan avloppsvatten vara en värdefull resurs i jordbruk som kräver bevattning. Så är fallet längs Musifloden som innehåller Hyderabads orenade och delvis renade avloppsvatten. Studieområdet är den del av marken runt Peerzadiguda bevattningskanal som är bevattnad av densamma. Flödet i kanalen mättes, vattenförlusterna uppskattades och bevattningen över hela området beräknades. I ett geografiskt informationssystem (GIS) beräknades arean på studieområdet och några kartor tillverkades. För några fält i området beräknades också den aktuella bevattningen med mätningar av flödet i bevattningskanalerna på fälten och med hjälp av intervjuer med lantbrukarna. Bevattningen av fälten utfördes med bassängbevattning. Den aktuella bevattningen användes i vattenbalansberäkningar för rotzonen för de grödor som växte i området: grönsaker, fodergräs och ris. En optimal bevattning beräknades.</p><p>Bevattningen över hela studieområdet beräknades till 41 mm per dag. Den aktuella bevattningen som uppmättes på fälten var mindre men de utförda vattenbalansberäkningarna visade att vattenförluster förekom, i vissa fall stora sådana. När den optimal bevattning användes i beräkningarna minskade förlusterna. Stora vattengivor och användningen av bassänbevattning och leder till vattenförluster och att stora mängder patogener tillförs jorden.</p> / <p>This thesis focuses on the amounts of wastewater irrigating the land along Peerzadiguda irrigation canal in Andhra Pradesh, India. The Peerzadiguda irrigation canal is located north of Musi river downstream Hyderabad, the capital of the Indian state Andhra Pradesh.</p><p>In regions where the freshwater resources are scarce, wastewater can become a valuable resource in irrigated agriculture. This is the case along Musi river that contains Hyderabad’s untreated and partly treated wastewater. The study area is the land around Peerzadiguda irrigation canal that is irrigated with water from the canal. The flow in the irrigation canal was measured, water losses were estimated and the irrigation amount over the whole study area was quantified. In a Geographical Information System (GIS) the size of the study area was measured and a few maps produced. The actual irrigation on a few farms was also calculated from measurements of the irrigation canals on the farms and from data from interviews with the farmers. The irrigation of the fields was preformed with basin irrigation. The values of the actual irrigation was used in water balance calculations of the root zone for the crops growing in the area: vegetable, paragrass and paddy rice. An optimal irrigation scheme was then calculated.</p><p>The irrigation over the whole study area was calculated to 41 mm per day. The actual irrigation measured on the fields was lower but the water balance calculations showed that the irrigation leads to water losses, in some cases large losses. With the optimal irrigation amount used in the water balance the water losses were reduced. The use of basin irrigation and the large amount of irrigation water leads to water losses and larger amounts of pathogenic organisms is added to the soil.</p>

Petites villes indiennes en développement. Facteurs non-agricoles de croissance ou de stagnation dans le district de Krishna

Leclerc, Eric 06 September 1993 (has links) (PDF)
Dans un contexte de crise urbaine, cette thèse s'interroge sur le déclin des petites villes en Inde et sur les conditions de leur développement. Saisissant l'opportunité d'une décentralisation administrative intervenue dans les années 1983-85 en Andhra Pradesh, cette étude explore le rôle dévolu aux petites villes, prises entre des métropoles toujours plus attractives et des villages en transformation. La recherche est menée à deux échelles, celle du district de Krishna, une région prospère de la côte du Coromandel, et sur un échantillon de six petites villes. Après une revue de la littérature sur le phénomène « petite ville » dans le Tiers Monde et en Inde, une analyse historique présente l'évolution de l'urbanisation en Andhra Pradesh. La définition de l'objet d'étude, les petites villes, est comparé dans les différentes sources mobilisées, puis une nouvelle définition élaborée pour déterminer l'échantillon d'étude. A l'échelle du district, les conditions du dynamisme des petites villes sont analysées en prenant en compte l'évolution démographique, socio-professionnelle et les activités, dominées par le tertiaire tant public que privé. La réforme des mandai, en multipliant les centres administratifs par trois a été un des facteurs de l'éclosion d'une nouvelle génération de petites villes en Krishna. La thèse s'achève sur une analyse fine de l'importante mobilité de la population, déplacements quotidiens et migrations pour un échantillon de quatre centres. Les flux remontants des villages ou descendants des grandes villes mettent en évidence des aires migratoires très vastes. La vitalité des petites villes montre leur rôle essentiel dans la hiérarchie urbaine, ainsi que leur place dans le passage de la ruralité à l'urbanité.
