Agri-business venture is an emerging need in the country for seamless integration of on-farm and nonfarm employment. This present paper is an attempt to investigate the production, investment feasibility, and problems faced by startups. A stratified random sampling was followed and the startup producing a similar type of product was aggregated to make 4 (four) product groups and from each group 2 (two) startups were selected. The study revealed that the business of the selected women agri startups is economically feasible and viable. The findings show that the profit earned by the Group I startups is comparatively higher than the other selected startups. The cost of production resulted higher in Group II (` 62,92,221). The benefit-cost ratio based on variable cost and total cost resulted higher in Group I by 1.53 and 1.51 respectively. Major problems faced by the startups were due to lack of funding or capital, poor transportation facilities, lack of entrepreneurial development training, non-availability of skilled workers/weavers, lack of guidelines and technical assistance, etc. Hence, the help of incubators, financial institutions, and provisions of entrepreneurial training by the government can boost the growth of the business.

This paper explores the economic and financial performance of black rice production in the upper

Brahmaputra valley region of Assam. Black rice, known for its rich nutritional value and cultural

significance, has gained attention from agri-entrepreneurs and development projects aiming to promote

its cultivation. The study employs various accounting ratios, such as gross profit ratio, profit-volume

ratio, and expenses ratio, to assess the profitability and financial health of black rice farmers in three

different categories based on farm size. Through a comprehensive analysis of primary data collected from

170 farmers, the study reveals that category C farmers, with the largest farm size, achieve the highest

average gross profit and gross profit ratio, followed by category B and category A. Similarly, category

C farmers incur higher expenses on machinery and fertilizers but maintain the lowest expense ratio.

Conversely, category A farmers have the highest expense ratio but achieve the lowest average gross

profit and profit volume ratio. Break-even analysis and margin of safety are employed to understand

the profitability and financial strength of black rice farmers. The study finds that category C farmers

have the highest break-even point and the highest margin of safety ratio, followed by category B and

category A. The research concludes that black rice cultivation holds immense potential for economic

growth and livelihood improvement in Assam. However, despite favorable agro-climatic conditions,

commercial production remains limited. Further research is needed to understand the barriers to scale up

production and promote the systematic adoption of black rice cultivation to achieve nutritional security

and enhance livelihoods in the region.

India is the world’s second – larger producer of veggies, after China. The primary vegetable grown in

Nalanda is the potato. The goal of the current analysis was to analysis potato farming costs and returns

using various cost models. The study was carried out in Bihar sarif and Noor Sharai block, which were

chosen due to their high potato production and area. Number of farmers in each category based on

probability proportional to size (PPS). Cost of cultivation of potato on the sample farms in Nalanda

district of Bihar. Production is generally considered to be a function of area and yield. The selection of

crop enterprise to be chosen in the farm and the location and distribution of resources within it depend

to a great extent on the yield of the crop, its price and the cost of the inputs used for its production. These

measurements for potatoes were developed as a result of taking into account the cost of cultivation and

returns on various production aspects when choosing a crop. Per hectare, on an average ` 92552.03 was

spent on potato. In the medium farm category, ` 100166 was spent on farming the highest. Followed by

small farms ` 92867 and marginal farms ` 84623.09. The cost of various components of cultivation such as

tubers (seeds) is the highest (22.95%) in the variable cost, followed by (19.46 per cent) Human labour. The

remaining significant factor included the fertilizer (8.82 per cent), irrigation charge 7.77 per cent, machine

charge 6.49 per cent, plant protection 3.79 per cent, manure 3.06 per cent, depreciation rate 1.62 per cent

and land revenue 0.24 per cent and the percentage of rental value of own land includes cost of fixed

cost (21.61 per cent), interest on fixed capital 2.95 per cent and interest on working capital 1.23 per cent.

In this paper, we evaluated the performance of various ICT interventions to empower agricultural

extension personnel, especially the Sub Assistant Agriculture Officer (SAAO) and Upazila Agriculture

Officer (UAO), the major stakeholders in Bangladesh’s existing agricultural extension system. It is

usually challenging for extension staff to keep track of their services and get up-to-date agricultural

knowledge in developing nations due to the enormous geographical area and quantity of farmers and

insufficient training and monitoring. Different ICT applications and tools, such as online and offline

agricultural consultation services applications, a digital diary for recording the daily activities of the

SAAOs, a monitoring system for the UAOs, and audiovisual materials have been developed to support

the extension people. The evaluation was done after collecting data from Focus Group Discussions (FGD),

Key Informant Interviews (KII), surveys, and server-side data processing. This study revealed that ICT

applications have increased the knowledge base, efficiency, confidence level, and acceptance of the SAAOs

and improved the financial aspects of the agriculture extension services. Thanks to ICT interventions,

farmers receive timely and quality services from SAAO, leading to increased crop production and a

better lifestyle for farmers.

Bangladeshi law forbids the use of the informal remittance system known as “hundi.” It is not supported

by law. The purpose of this study is to comprehend the benefits and drawbacks of Bangladesh’s Hundi

system. Data from 400 respondents in total were used to assess the survey results. The research was

conducted using both a qualitative and quantitative technique. The research employed purposive and

snowball sampling. Descriptive statistics revealed that three-fourth of the hundi consumers, 40% of the

hundi business operators, and 67% of the key informant’s transacted money to India only, and the rest

transacted to India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka. All the respondents transacted a huge amount of money

to the above countries for the purpose of business, treatment, education and migration. The consumers

provided and the business operators took commissions at a rate of 2-10 Taka for money transaction. To

transact money via hundi, majority of the respondents did not require to submit/have any document,

whereas a few required to provide/have NID and mobile or bank details. The respondents brought goods/

products through hundi, and goods/products were cosmetics, stones, Agri products, medicine, bicycle/

bike parts, electronic products, spices, cow, fish, and Sharee. Majority of the consumers felt comfortable

sending money through hundi, and majority of the respondents suggested to provide business license/

legal basis to the hundi business. The findings and associated policy recommendations are deemed

helpful to understand the impact of hundi system on Bangladesh economy. The findings of this project

would help the policy makers and planners formulate appropriate policy and programs regarding hundi

system in Bangladesh.

The field of child-computer interaction has garnered significant interest from researchers worldwide.

Nevertheless, the discourse around the protection of children’s digital safe, that includes privacy and

security remains significantly underrepresented in both Bangladesh and the broader global south. In

situations where a significant portion of senior and adult persons lack awareness regarding optimal

strategies for effectively utilizing digital gadgets and tools, it is difficult to anticipate a higher level of

proficiency among younger individuals. Privacy generally encompasses the capacity of individuals to

exercise control over, get access to, and govern their personal data. In contrast, the security system serves

to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access, data leakage, or cyber intrusions, therefore safeguarding the

data from potential compromise. Previous studies have indicated that the responsibility for safeguarding

the digital privacy and security of children lies with both parents and children themselves. Regrettably, a

dearth of scholarly investigations exists within the domain, hindering the ability to systematically monitor

and analyze the potential relationship between parental socioeconomic status and the privacy and safety

of their offspring. This research aims to discover the correlation. This study employed semi-structured

interviews with a sample of 48 parents and 42 children from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, including

high income, middle income, and low-income groups. The collected data were subjected to statistical

analysis. The findings of this study indicate that children from high income families are more susceptible

to online safety issues compared to their counterparts from low-income households. This vulnerability is

attributed to factors such as the widespread availability of internet access and personal digital devices,

greater purchasing power on online platforms, and a lack of parental monitoring. This study presents a

limited number of recommendations for parents and children across various socioeconomic backgrounds

in order to enhance the state of internet safety for children.

Good quality transportation system enhances the growth of economy and extends social development

in the country. Transportation fills the gap of communication between the places. It helps to improve

trading, businesses in different states of the country. Logistic management is another side of transportation

of goods from the factory source to the delivery point. Logistics management is the vital to increase the

growth of business as well as economic growth of the country. Technology plays the role to improve

transportation and logistics management system. Technologies are renovated in regular basis and

new technologies are appeared in this era. Emerging information technologies are included to mold

the transportation system as smart and intelligent. The modern city is advancing in all the directions

nowadays, modern cities are comprising as smart and advance city. Smart transportation is the essential

aspect of smart city. Therefore, advancement of transportation in smart city is very significant. Logistic

management is emergent aspect of business. Progress of business extend the economical potency of

country. Therefore, modernization of logistic management system is very essential. Role of information

technology in transportation and logistics management system is portrayed in this paper. Impact of

economic factors in growth of transportation and logistics management system in context of Indian

smart cities are emphasis in this paper.

The miserable lives of handloom weavers are evident enough in every part of India where the handloom

products are not all sustainable. There have been a lot of strategies to revoke the industry for many times

in the way of schemes and interventions, but the efforts are all in vain and the livelihood of weavers is still

alarming. Though there have been innumerable problems causing the decreased level of satisfaction of

weavers, factors such as unorganised operations, product diversifications, credit needs, raw material, less

returns and marketing issues are extracted to be critical in influencing the living conditions of weavers.

The study is aimed to identify and assess the impact of certain critical factors on the increased levels of

living weavers’ conditions in Srikakulam district, Andra Pradesh state. The study was carried out with

a method mix of descriptive design, quantitative approach, non- probability sampling of convenience

technique and cross- sectional survey method. The data collected was analysis through influencing

statistics of factor analysis and multi regression analysis to extract the independent variables and explain

the dependent variable respectively. Specific recommendations were offered be the research out of

management implications with the interpretation. This paper explains the impact of each factor on the

survival and sustainability of handloom weavers.

The development of socially responsible investment (SRI) in the mid-1990s opened up a vast area of

research in portfolio construction. Indeed, investors are breaking with traditional financial theory by

integrating extra-financial elements into their portfolio management strategies. In this sense, the emergence

of this new type of investment has triggered a craze in the scientific community about the performance of

SRI, which has led to mixed results. One of the possible explanations for this heterogeneity of results is

that the methodology employed by the different studies has an inevitable influence on its result, or that

the financial performance of SRI can be influenced by the measure of financial performance employed

(risk or profitability variable). For this reason, the analysis of our data is conducted using a principal

component analysis of financial performance, which permits the construction of a synthetic index that

includes most of the variables used to measure financial performance in the empirical literature. The

objective here is to capture a general trend in the impact of SRI on this composite index of financial

performance. The results of the multivariate test on the composite index show that non-SRI firms have

a negative and statistically significant impact on the financial performance index. Similarly, the effect

of investments made by Engaged companies has a negative, but not statistically significant impact on

financial performance.

This study investigates the intricate relationship between health issues and socio-economic status in the

Teesta Breakage Area of Bangladesh. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, we collected and analyzed

data from diverse sources, including health records, surveys, and interviews with local residents. Our

findings reveal a complex interplay of factors influencing health outcomes, including access to healthcare,

environmental conditions, and economic disparities. The study highlights specific health challenges

faced by the community and explores how these challenges intersect with varying socio-economic

statuses. Additionally, we identify potential interventions to address health disparities and promote

well-being in the Teesta Breakage Area. The insights gained from this research contribute to the broader

understanding of health dynamics in marginalized regions, providing a foundation for targeted policy

and intervention strategies.

Now a day’s products diversification and commercialization are very challenging work in the field of

agriculture. Jute is one of the cheapest as well as the strongest amongst the all other natural fibres. India

is the largest producer of jute followed by Bangladesh and China and world leader in manufacturing jute

goods. Tremendous competition from synthetic materials as well as declining demand for traditional jute

goods, demand is expected to rise in respect of its value-added diversified products like fine yarn, blended

yarn, specialty fabrics and non-woven based on jute and jute waste. Lots of innovative new products

have been developed with high value-addition by the researchers now a days, viz., home textiles, jute

composites, jute geo-textiles, paper pulp, technical textiles, chemical products, handicrafts and fashion

accessories etc. Globally, demand for diversified jute products is growing particularly in developed

country markets such as USA, Canada, Australia and Japan, where peoples are becoming increasingly

conscious about carbon footprint of consumer goods.

India is a major producer and consumer of a wide variety of pulses and oilseeds but still struggles to

achieve self-sufficiency due to the growing disparity between demand and supply. The present study has

made an attempt to compare and disseminate trends in acreage, production, and productivity of pulses

and oilseeds over the last two decades (1999-2000 to 2018-2019). Regarding the computation of growth

and instability, a modified exponential production function is fitted, and to judge the overall change in

production, a decomposition of the trend in area and yield over two decades has been performed. Bihar

and West Bengal stand out as the primary producers of pulses, while rapeseed and mustard take the lead

among oilseed crops, followed by sesame. Odisha uniquely contributes to groundnut production, while

linseed has become integral to West Bengal’s overall oilseeds output. To enhance production in these

states, implementing HYV seeds, proper land preparation techniques, and adopting paira cropping in

rice-fallow situations can significantly boost the current status of pulses and oilseeds in the eastern India.

The optimal system, structure, and effectiveness of the tax system depend on many factors and are

characterized by several differences depending on the country’s social and economic development.

The purpose of the academic paper is to identify the features of the impact of the EU-27 countries’ tax

policy on business development and economic dynamics to determine the differences in this correlation.

Methodology. The statistical and regression analysis of the tax structure of the EU-27 countries is used

in the scientific article to evaluate its correlation with economic dynamics for the period 2000-2022 based

on the average values for the following periods: 2000-2005, 2006-2010, 2011-2015, and 2016-2022. The

results demonstrate a slowdown in economic growth in the EU-27 in the long run from 2000 to 2019 and

economic growth in 2021 to 2022 with no significant changes in the tax structure. The dynamics of tax

revenues were revealed to be stable, despite their different shares in GDP. In general, it is possible to

assert a low level of correlation between the share of tax revenues in GDP and the annual GDP growth

rate. The established regression model shows only a 9% change in GDP dynamics depending on the

change in the share of tax revenues to the budgets of the EU-27 countries. The research has identified

three groups of countries by the share of tax revenues, by the share of taxes on income, profit and capital

gains, and by the share of taxes on goods and services in the EU-27.

Globalization, industrialization, and digitalization have led to structural changes in the economy and

labor markets, affecting their internationalization, flexibility, labor mobility, and the emergence of new

forms of employment. The purpose of the academic paper is to identify the economic consequences of

digital transformation and automation of labor markets on the example of the EU-27 countries for the

period 2013-2022. The structural-functional analysis was used in the academic paper to characterize and

systematically study the economic consequences of digitalization and automation in the labor markets

of the EU-27 countries. The functioning of the labor market in various EU-27 countries in the context of

digital transformation is characterized by a number of features. The EU-27 labor markets are characterized

by rapid employment recovery, especially during the pandemic and economic downturn in 2020, and

employment revival in 2021-2022.

The significance of risk management within the framework of Industry 4.0 is on the rise, particularly

within the realm of international investment projects. Contemporary technological advancements, such

as artificial intelligence and blockchain, are not only ushering in fresh prospects but are also instigating

the emergence of novel categories of risks. The primary objective of this investigation is to formulate

an all-encompassing strategic risk management framework tailored to innovative enterprises operating

within the purview of Industry 4.0. The envisaged research endeavour encompasses a thorough scrutiny

of existing methodologies and models, along with an exploration of contentious dimensions within this

domain. The study’s findings encompass criteria for the evaluation and quantification of risks, in addition

to pivotal risk factors that exert notable influence on the efficacy of international investment projects. The

pragmatic import of this investigation resides in its potential utility for enhancing managerial decisionmaking

across various tiers of the organizational hierarchy. The presented material seeks to facilitate

the alignment of conventional risk management approaches with the intricacies inherent in Industry 4.0.

Nonetheless, it is imperative to acknowledge that the efficacy of the formulated model may hinge upon

contextual nuances and might necessitate supplementary adaptations.

The article investigates the socio-economic and psychological conditions and needs of 123 IDPs in the city

of Uman, Cherkasy region, Ukraine, and identifies their qualifications and the possibility of employment

in their speciality, access to useful information, the possibility of receiving state assistance and meeting

basic needs, reveals violations of the psycho-emotional state and the need for rehabilitation, the state of

physical and mental health, etc. It is proved that a prerequisite for successful adaptation of IDPs to new

realities is to take into account their psycho-emotional state. The most common stress factors are constant

anxiety about their relatives and friends, inability to meet basic needs and internal fear of an unknown

future. The study identified security, economic, social and psychological reasons that prevent people from

returning to their places of residence and reasons that may encourage IDPs to return home. The study

identified the following types of activities that have a therapeutic effect: bibliotherapy, nature therapy,

isotherapy, music therapy, dance, sound, and occupational therapy. It has been found that 82.5% of IDPs

do not realise the need for meetings with a psychologist to improve their psycho-emotional state, 13.8%

of IDPs are conscious of their own mental well-being, and only 2.4% of IDPs are unsure.

This research aims to form a scientifically grounded and usable methodological support of social and

natural-resource evaluation of inclusive tourist objects for the effective formation of a sustainable

inclusive tourism space. The author’s understanding of the social and natural-resource evaluation of

inclusive tourist objects as a set of ecological, economic, social, inclusive, and rehabilitation approaches

is suggested, which allows monitoring the natural-resource potential taking into account individual

characteristics, the accessibility of the tourist object and its rehabilitation opportunities for people with

disabilities of various nosologies. The research is based on an attempt to take into account subjective and

objective conditions in the aesthetic landscape valuation. The results obtained during their interaction

will make it possible to take into account the peculiarities of the landscape that affects a person, as

well as the specifics of perception and the degree of susceptibility of a person. Compliance with the

recommendations for social and natural-resource evaluation will make the socio-cultural space unhindered

for all categories of the population, which will provide access to social services for each person for

their integration, socialization, and adaptation. Methodological principles of quantitative evaluation of

accessibility parameters and attractiveness factors of natural resources and tourist infrastructure objects

for participants on the implementation of an inclusive rehabilitation and social tourism programme

have been developed, which will provide access to social services for every person and promote their

integration, socialization, and adaptation.

The investigation into the evolution of the digital economy has yielded profound insights into its

fundamental nature, the pivotal drivers guiding its advancement, and the trajectories characterizing

the metamorphosis of economic operations within organizations. The outcomes of this inquiry are

primed to underpin the effectiveness, calibre, and dependability of information-driven and analytical

underpinnings, indispensable for informed managerial judgments geared towards nurturing the inventive

potential inherent in the digital economy. Furthermore, these findings address the impediments that

curtail seamless digital transformation. Among the preeminent findings engendering novelty in this

research, the subsequent elements stand out: the formulation of a comprehensive framework for the

delineation and taxonomy of economic activities within the digital economy domain, encompassing

both a classification schema for economic pursuits intrinsic to the digital sector and another for economic

endeavours facilitated by the integration of digital technologies. A comprehensive array of metrics has

been systematically devised to assess the evolution of the digital economy. This framework encompasses

indicators derived from information and communication technology (ICT) statistics, national economic

accounts, fixed asset investments, and foreign trade, as well as indicators custom-developed in consonance

with the proposed taxonomy of economic pursuits within the digital economy. This classification system

comprises five distinct blocks, each comprising discrete sets of indicators: those about the ICT sector, the

digital sector, organizational outlays on digital technologies, digital proficiency of the workforce, and a

holistic gauge of the digital economy. An intricate methodology has been formulated to quantitatively

evaluate the ICT sector’s state, progression, and competitive standing. This methodological construct

encompasses algorithms for the computation of physical quantities of gross value added and fixed

capital investment segregated by the nature of economic undertakings associated with the production of

ICT goods and provisioning ICT services. Also included are computations for the index of fixed capital

formation rate, alongside indicators appraising the extent of the economy’s engagement with international

trade concerning diverse digital products.

The study investigates risk management strategies within the global business environment, focusing on

the analysis of intricate dependencies and the efficacy of corresponding measures. The significance of

this research arises from the contemporary reality wherein the business environment contends with a

multitude of influential factors capable of altering the organizational dynamics of the business realm.

Consequently, enterprises and companies must cultivate preparedness for diverse factors that threaten

their sustained viability. The article deliberates on risk management strategies within the global business

environment, emphasizing the analysis of complex dependencies and the effectiveness of implemented

measures. The significance of risk management in the current stage of development is delineated. The

essence of risk management strategies is explicitly defined, and factors that possess the potential to impact

the operational dynamics of enterprises adversely are systematically examined. The paper outlines various

methods of risk management planning, including acceptance, transfer, avoidance, and reduction. The

specific application nuances of each method are expounded upon. Additionally, the interrelationship

between risk management methods and strategies is delineated, providing clarity on their respective roles

and contributions. The examination of risk management strategies encompasses the analysis of specific

approaches, namely the one percent strategy, stop-loss and take-profit order strategy, diversification and

hedging, exit strategy, and research strategy. The study identifies the predominant domains wherein each

strategy is frequently employed, elucidating their fundamental characteristics and discerning their impact

on alterations within the company’s operations. Furthermore, illustrative examples of these strategies are

provided to enhance understanding. The summary of risk management strategy implementation in the

enterprise’s activities is presented, elucidating the principal aspects, stages, and procedural framework.

The determination of the impact of implementation on the company’s operations and its capacity to

mitigate risks is systematically addressed

The article examines the main problems of the XXI century, the overcoming of which led to achieving the

United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals adopted in 2015, replacing the Millennium Development

Goals. The authors systematically consider the governance process in sustainable development, paying

particular attention to the structural-functional and information-behavioral subsystems of governance.

Also, special attention is paid to the development of information technology and civil society, as well

as other changes in the late XX – early XXI century. These changes have influenced the concepts of

public administration, which are fundamental to achieving the SDGs. The article aims to determine

the methodological approaches necessary for the functioning of the public administration system in

the context of sustainable development. The primary research method used was a bibliographic study,

both descriptive and analytical. The analysis of scientific literature allowed the authors to conclude that

the following modern concepts of public administration in the context of sustainable development can

be implemented: “management of public values,” “digital citizenship,” “political networks,” “smart

(receptive/reflective) governance,” results/goals-based management, FAST-concept, “Open Government,”

and “Activating State.” The importance of involving people in addressing sustainable development issues

related to significant social, economic, and environmental problems, policy-making, and public service

delivery is hardly disputed today. As shown, modern concepts aim to enable citizens to participate in such

processes. These include access to and availability of information and the development of communication

technologies, including social media. In the XXI century of Knowledge Societies, the most creative

solutions will be created through open interaction and reliance on shared resources. The extraordinary

events (the pandemic and the war in Ukraine) have significantly slowed down the process of achieving

Sustainable Development Goals and, in some cases, made it impossible to achieve any results for some

goals. As a result, a new model of public administration in the context of sustainable development will

be required. The prospects for further research include defining a new concept of public administration

and its provision, which will consider the advantages of modern concepts and ensure their synergistic

effect so that the sustainable development agenda is

adopted by the state, business, and society.

The contemporary world is witnessing a huge contribution of the travel and tourism sector to the world

economy. It remains a critical factor in creating employment opportunities at global and regional levels.

The countries have identified it as a key driver for sustainable economic growth. With a promising future

ahead, the nations are now making their tourism business more organized and systematic by introducing

the idea of destinations. The policy makers are allocating higher budgets for developing destination’s

infrastructure like transportation, hotels, heritage, information technology, cleanliness, and hygiene. The

purpose is to attract potential tourists and investors. Hence, it is imperative to understand the factors

that are crucial in building destination brands. In line to the these, the present study is an attempt to

explore two specific areas, (I) The economic perspective of destination branding, and (II) The dimensions

that could help in developing the destinations as strong brands. The present study is a qualitative study

where the researchers have done systematic literature review of the related fields. Firstly, it has been

found that FTAs, DTVs, FDIs, and Domestic investments are the key drivers of economic growth of a

destination whereas FEEs, GDP, employment rates, number and nature of new jobs, international visitor

spending, and domestic visitor spending are the important KPIs for assessing the impact of destination

branding. Secondly, extensive literature search suggested that consumer-based brand equity is the key

element for building destination brands. Further, some key dimensions have been identified to build

strong customer-based brand equity that cannot just help in establishing strong destination brands but

can also have individual impact on destination’s economy and development. These dimensions are

namely destination image, destination awareness, destination brand identity, destination brand meaning,

destination brand experience, destination brand value congruence, and destination loyalty.

Education sectors are one of the growing sectors in India. The implementation of various basic and

emerging technologies in the education sector has led to rapid changes in the education system. With the

use of technology, the education system has now changed from traditional classroom based education to

digital education. Various private companies have established their businesses in the education sector. With

the adoption of various technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Cloud Computing, Bigdata Analytics and

so on, the EdTech companies are growing rapidly. The EdTech companies have setup Digital Education

infrastructure for the scientific delivery of education to the learners. The EdTech companies have tried to

synthesize different areas like- Education, Technology, Pedagogy, Business, Economics, Finance, Politics

and many more. The intelligent system of learning with scientific based personalize study material and

special doubt clearance have considered to make the relationship between curriculum, syllabus and

pedagogy. This paper discusses about the private EdTech companies in India. This paper discusses the

financial aspects of these private EdTech companies. Different basic and emerging Technologies used by

the private EdTech companies have also discussed in this paper.

The idea that individuals take ownership of their personal growth and, as a result, take control of

improving their job competences has been a major tenet of proponents of what is known as the

boundaryless professional view. In this provocative article, we discuss the barriers to and possible

solutions for advancing boundaryless professions in the gig economy, which, although initially seeming

to provide favourable circumstances for such occupations, is plagued by several variables that make

these professions difficult. Therefore, it’s possible that professions without boundaries exist in the gig

economy. Specifically, we hypothesise that gig workers’ employability is restricted by the acquisition of

pertinent professional competences that are hindered by intra- and interorganizational career barriers.

We then propose that, to reduce these limitations, we should think about eschewing employer-centric,

conventional HRM methods and introducing new, network-based, self-organized HRM actions (in the

form of collaborative communities of practice).

Informatics is a domain not only for practicing but also a field of study which is really dedicated to study

about the information activities such as collection, selection, organization, processing, management

and delivery using technologies. The utilization of Informatics in various fields and sectors responsible

in developing other domain focused areas and fields such as Bio Informatics, Health Informatics, Geo

Informatics, Agricultural Informatics, and so on. Agricultural Informatics is also called as Agricultural

Information Technologies and Agricultural Information Science which is simply the merger of the

Agricultural Science with Information Science. Basic and latest applications of the IT and Computing in

Agriculture and other allied domains are developing and modernizing better and healthy Agricultural

practice with ICT. Various other technologies and systems also dedicated in agricultural activities for

proper and effective and healthy Agricultural Practice. Many countries worldwide dedicated in ICT

applications in Agricultural Systems for effective and progressive situation. Though, modern researchers

find-out some of the critical issues and challenges in Agricultural Informatics, and most of the issues are

related to the finance and economics including social. This work highlights fundamentals of Agricultural

Informatics including technologies and impact of Agricultural Information Science with reference to

the latest and researched issues, challenges of ICT in Agricultural Systems related to the economy and

Each and every organization, institution needs information and allied objects for the growth and proper

development and without a sufficient amount of information it is very difficult to sustain and run an

organization. Universities and Higher Educational Institutions work and function based on various

academic and administrative units and sections; and in each and every section information is very much

crucial and valuable. The development of information related activities is called Information Systems and

‘Information Infrastructure’ is a broad concept which is required for information collection, processing,

management and delivery in manual and technological mode. There are different types of sections and

sub-sections exit in model Information Infrastructure systems. Each and every universities depend on

proper information management systems and there are issues in relation to social, technical, psychological,

economical and managerial. In an university system and general organization there are numerous systems

and procedures in managing data, information and other documentation. Many institutions keeps

information as usual and without any professionalism and that lead to the failure of organizational goal

and proper development. Economical and financial issues are alarming in purchasing and maintaining

technologies, systems, and Human Resources, etc. And this paper is about the basic of Information

Infrastructure with a special focus on economical and financial issues in the context of Digital divide.

The article examines the concept of migration attractiveness of the regions in its correlation with investment

attractiveness and its corresponding factors of influence. It is stressed that the example of Ukraine is a

unique in its kind, not experienced critical deteriorative influence of either hybrid war or active hostilities

on the migration attractiveness of the regions. As a result of literature research and studies of Ukrainian

data, it is proposed to use methodologies for assessment of investment attractiveness when designing

mechanisms of shaping migration attractiveness of the country’ regions, and apply matrix systemic

approach, taking into account, among other factors, sustainability (ESG) patterns.

The phenomenon of national security is considered in the context of the changing world order,

globalization and deterritorialization as global megatrends. The question is raised about the possibility

of de-actualizing the national level of security research. The conceptual landscape of the concept of

national security has been explored, traditional and new challenges to the state and society, which

complicate the policy of ensuring both national, global, and regional security, have been ordered and

analyzed. It is concluded that concepts, sources, methods, and types of national security policy need to

be rethought, in accordance with new types of threats, their hybridization and complexity. It is shown

that the development of modern theory and policy for ensuring human (personal) security is caused not

only by changes in philosophical and ideological ideas about the phenomenon of security, but also by

changes in approaches to the practical activities of states to ensure human security.

The relevance of the research problem is determined both by the theoretical significance of the study of

managerial aspects of organizational changes in public administration organizations, and by the practical

tasks of improving the mechanism for their implementation. Based on the evolutionary method, the

existing theoretical and practical approaches to change management offered by the management theory

are described, and the prospects for their application in the field of public administration are assessed.

Agile paradigm is presented as an underlying one for addressing challenges of VUCA-world with regard

to public administration.

The article outlines the essence of blockchain and the peculiarities of its application in the financial

sector of the global economy in the context of its innovative development. The authors determined the

directions of blockchain application in the accounting and audit of fuel and energy companies. These

directions include smart contracts, collateral management, the use of stablecoins, tokenization of real

assets, invoice factoring, crypto staking, transactions in the virtual world and reward tokens, the support

of new types of B2B networks, simplification and tracking of data flow in a financial institution, and

In agricultural sector, many policy reforms in India are introduced to achieve the target of doubling

farmers’ income. Most of the recent studies and policy focuses on rural roads, while the critical part, which

is still unaddressed, is the farm access roads (Pandan or Dhuri roads). We did a study in Amravati district

of the Maharashtra state on the farm access roads. Farms are becoming inaccessible because of absence of

proper road. Farmer are not able to take high value crops, scheduled farm operations are getting distorted

and sometimes bringing the harvest from farms to home or market becomes difficult. In addition, owing

to accessibility issues, farmers are not able to cultivate land, which result in low productivity and low

income, especially small and marginal farmers, who are the majority, have no capacity to pay for or build

farm roads. We recommend a convergence “farm road access model” implemented in Amravati district,

dovetailing schemes of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee (MGNREGA),

state funds and farmer’s contribution or Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds. The two types of

roads under this model are as, low cost farm access road of ` 1,50,000 per kilometre and high cost road of

` 17,00,000 per kilometre. The impact of farm access roads is that farmers are able to get access to their

land throughout the year and are able to do farm operations timely. Overall, it resulted in increase in

farmers’ income by one third. Therefore, we strongly suggest replicating the Amravati farm access road

(Har Khet ko Rasta) model across the nation.

In the modern world, technical development and innovations are crucial in determining social, economic,

and cultural realities. The topic of the impact of these factors on global dynamics is becoming increasingly

relevant, considering their continuous advancement and globalization trends. The purpose of the present

academic paper is to analyze the impact of innovations and technological development on modern

society, with a special focus on global transformations. The dialectical approach was used as the research

methodology, supplemented by systemic, structural-functional and sociological methods. As a result of

the research, the historical context of innovations, their impact on social-cultural processes and the role

of technological development as a driver of global change were identified. The primary focus was on

analyzing the interaction of technologies with social structures, as well as their influence on the formation

of new cultural codes and identities. It has been revealed that technologies not only serve as a catalyst

for social and cultural transformations but also cause a number of social challenges, including resource

imbalance, risks of dehumanization and new forms of inequality. The academic paper also emphasizes

the importance of adaptive strategies of society in response to technological challenges. This research

makes a significant contribution to understanding the dynamics of modern society by emphasizing

the key role of technology in global processes and showing ways to integrate it effectively to achieve

sustainable development.
