Introduction: Indians believe in holidays: The country has among the largest number of public
holidays in the world. Yet the most common reason for getting away is to "visit a native place."
Migrant workers return to their family farms at harvest time. Others return to their villages for an
annual pilgrimage. The concept of a holiday where you let your hair down and relax has been
accepted only in recent years. (2) As India is Considered as "Land of Villages" world wide, it

The complex and highly competitive native of the current global economic situation demands a high
degree of efficiency. This in turn requires the application of advanced technology, the improvement
of managerial ability, and professionalism in the management of both agribusiness and rural tourism.
Appropriate technology, business information and promotion, and a sound marketing strategy all
have all become important components. Although, rural tourism is a new concept in India but in
Europe and other parts of the world it has been practiced since long as people want their children to
have first hand knowledge and experience of rural life. Countries having agriculture economy e.g.
Australia, Canada and the USA have Housing tourist spots in country side. Rural tourism may
include heritage tourism, Farm tourism, pilgrim tourism, adventure tourism, nature tourism or
folkways and ancient culture tourism. Specific potential areas for rural tourism is India may be

Infrastructure and Rural
Introduction Infrastructures are basic essential services that should be put in place to enable
development to occur. Socio–economic development can be facilitated and accelerated by the
presence of social and economic infrastructures. If these facilities and services are not in place,
development will be very difficult and in fact can be likened to a very scarce commodity that can
only be secured at a very high price and cost. Nigeria Public spending have been geared towards the
provision of infrastructures and social services such as schools, hospitals, electricity, water supply
etc, while economic activities such as deliberately establishing manufacturing and processing
industries...show more content...
Justifying the functional superiority of theories as guide post in all field of human endeavour,
Onah(2003) argued that rather than base actions on judgment derived from guesswork or
speculations, theories enables a chosen line of action to be anchored in and guided by evidence
derived from specific scientific research which makes the consequences of such action fall in line
with the intended direction as possible. In this paper, we anchor the effects of infrastructure on urban
/rural development in the work of John Maynard Keynes, etc, before taking a look on selected
sectors. One of the first systematic attempts to link infrastructure indirectly to poverty reduction was
made by John Maynard Keynes in 1936. In The General Theory of Employment Interest and Money,
Keynes argues that in an economy characterized by depression and market failure, high public
expenditure is necessary to adjust the economy back to high levels of employment. This implies that
high public investment in social and economic infrastructure would increase national income,
employment and the welfare of people. This theory could be of practical importance in developing
countries where the bulk of investment in infrastructure is owned and financed by government, and
market mechanisms do not function properly. In these countries almost 70 per cent of infrastructure
investments are

Disadvantages Of Rural Development
There is a lot of construction work have been carried out in the city. But the development of
construction works in rural areas also increased. This is to explore the rural area which has
potential or ability to become an attraction of our country. There are many advantages in rural
development some of them are increasing in literacy rate, improve in transportation and road facility,
water problems are solved, better improvement in power supply and also improving to live a better
life. http://www.answers.com/Q/What_are_the_advantages_of_rural_development One of the
advantages in rural development is literacy rate is increasing in rural areas. The literacy rate of
people in rural areas is poor if compare to the people who live in city. This is because there is less
educational introduce in the rural areas. The rural areas are lack of educational because they do not
have enough resources to construct educational building such as school. The children in rural areas
should study to gain knowledge and get use of it. So, the advantage of rural development to the
population is the literacy rate increase among the people in rural areas. When there is implementing
of construction project, the most important building which must be constructed is school. This is to

This is because some of the rural place still do not have roadway. They still using boat as their
transport and their only excess is river. So, if implement the development in rural area, the
transportation and road facility can be improved. For example, if there is a roadway, the people can
use the motorcycle and car as their daily transportation. It is more convenient, easy and safer than
using boat. In short, development of the transportation and road facility in rural area is important
and simultaneously provide the advantages to the people who live in rural

It also includes the replication of Agrarian Information and Marketing Center (AIM–C),when and

where feasible, to provide marketing assistance, information service, training and financing services
to the ARBs.
DEFINITION OF TERMS:
Agrarian reform is defined to mean the redistribution of lands, regardless of crops or fruits
produced, to farmers and regular farm workers who are landless, irrespective of tenurial
arrangement, to include the totally of factors and support services designed to lift the economic
status of the beneficiaries and all other arrangements alternative to the physical redistribution of
lands, such as production or profit sharing, labor administration, and the distribution of shares of
stocks, which will allow beneficiaries to receive a just share of the fruits of the lands they work.
ARC Connectivity – is a new strategy wherein development in the ARCs will radiate to non–ARC
barangays that will benefit more ARBs and communities. Each barangay will complement the
development concept of the cluster barangays which is conceived to undertake agro industrial
development endeavor focusing on production, processing, and marketing of products where they
have competitive advantage.
AGRARIAN REFORM COMMUNITY (ARC) DEVELOPMENT – is an area focused intervention
designed to propel and sustain national growth through a people centered, concentrated, holistic
approach in community development.

The Development Of Rural Development
Rural development can be referred to as actions and initiatives to improve the socio–economic life in
villages and non–urban neighborhoods. It involves provision of social, physical, and institutional
infrastructural facilities. Agricultural development is transforming from a traditional level to a
market oriented one. According to Okonkwor (1987), agricultural development is a process of
change not fully from the traditional and subsistence mode to more productive and commercialized
enterprises but also the transformation of the people who engage in it. Infrastructural facilities help
in transforming the economy. According to an inaugural Africa rural development forum, countries
that have developed their rural infrastructure have...show more content...
Availability of infrastructural facilities improves agricultural development, which helps to reduce
poverty. There are some international agencies that help in improving quality of lives and alleviating
poverty by providing funds and through programs. Social, physical and institutional infrastructural
facilities promote rural development, which improves socio–economic life. In sub–Saharan Africa,
about 70 per cent of the population has limited or no access to electricity hindering socioeconomic
development,. The economic development of a country depends on the quantity and quality of its
resources, the state of technology and the efficient deployment of resources in both the production
and consumption processes (Fapohunda, 1979). According to World Food Summit, roads, electricity,
supplies, telecommunications and other infrastructure services are limited in all rural areas, although
they are of key importance to stimulate agricultural investment and growth. In recent years, there
has been a belief that the differences in growth between the successful East Asian economies and
other parts of the developing world can be explained by failure to invest sufficiently in
infrastructure (Estache and Fay, 2007). These facilities can be good water supply, education, health
care and power supply. Availability of these resources will increase job opportunities and increase
income. If infrastructures are improved in a

India is a country where major part of its population lives in rural area and majority of rural people
are deprived from the very basic amenities. There are approximately 900 villages in Mathura
district. These villages are not in very good condition and do not cater to the basic needs of villages
i.e. education, healthcare, employment etc. The aim of this article to demonstrate through various
developmental proposals that village can be self–contained in itself by understanding & identifying
the potential of that place. For the demonstration of sustainable development, village sameri of
Mathura district has been taken up. The main aim of this project is to upgrade built environment of
village and living conditions of villagers which include the socio–economic well–being, livable
atmosphere, educational upliftment and societal integrity of the people living in the village. It is
intended to show various stages of village development without degrading the environment. The
article is divided into three sections: familiarization with the place, identification of issues and
finally typical proposals which can also be adopted in other villages of Mathura district. The last

The Development Of Rural Development
3.2 Rural Development
According to Oyeleye, D.A.(1987) he defines rural development as process in which development in
social infrastructures such as better roads, water supply, electricity, schools and hospitals spreads out
from the urban centres or communities and moves into the rural villages and communities.
Abumere S.I. (2002) stated that if rural development is defined as a means to help improve the
physical, cultural, social and economic status or life of the rural people then that means that
infrastructures such as roads, clean water, electricity, telecommunication and other facilities must be
carefully planned and delivered to the rural people in a consistent manner. It doesn't matter whether
these infrastructures are built from the urban centres and move into the rural areas or vice versa. The
delivery mechanisms must be very consistent.
Inorder for any country to develope and progress both socially and economically, it must have the
necessary infrastructures that are needed to facilitate such development, in both urban and rural
areas of the country.
However studies have shown that in most developing countries, rural areas/villages are mostly
neglected therefore these rural areas don't have these basic infrastructures that are needed for
development. Therefore there is a huge demand for building infrastructures into rural areas.
That is very true for Papua New Guinea where the bulks of the population live in the rural areas. The
Gena villagers are one of the

It espouses the concept of integrated area development in agrarian reform communities wherein
basic infrastructure, organization/institutional, agricultural and enterprise development support are
combined to produce incremental growth in productivity and income among farmers.
Specifically, the Project will deliver basic support services to the presently underserved ARCs and
where possible, consolidate economic activities and organizations to cover more farmer
beneficiaries. As of December 2004, only 57% of the 1,617 ARCs have been effectively provided
with support services most of which were financed through Official Development Assistance (ODA)
due to national government budget shortage. ARISP III is designed to cover about 129 underserved
ARCs to unleash their growth potentials for agricultural production and agribusiness. It will also
support initial investments in promoting ARC connectivity by consolidating and marketing the
produce and products of a cluster of ARCs to increase value added and spread the benefits of
growth to a greater number of farmers.
In Quezon 1, the three ARCs covered by the project include ARC Bulihan in San Antonio, ARC
Carlagan in Burdeos and ARC Banadero–Libjo in Polillo, Quezon whose desired results are:
1. To increase average household income of about 700 farmer beneficiaries

Essay about Rural Education
Rural Education
Where a child grows up and which high school they attend greatly affects further education and
employment. Higher education, including college and vocational schooling, factors into
employment opportunity. Research has shown that schools in rural areas have far less resources for
students interested in attending college, providing less opportunity for students pursuing higher
education. Wilsonville High School, located the city of Wilsonville just south of Portland, Oregon,
represents a typical urban high school in an upper–middleclass city. In contrast, Cottage Grove High
School, located in the small rural town of Cottage Grove, southwest of Eugene, Oregon supports a
much lower income community. Both schools differ...show more content...
In the State of Oregon, a family of four must make $30,800 or less annually to qualify for reduced
meals, while the same family earning $21,700 or less annually would qualify for free meals.
Cottage Grove High School has far more students eligible for free or reduced meals (44%) than
Wilsonville High School (12%). The percentage of students eligible for free or reduced meals at
Wilsonville High School is slightly higher than the district average of 10.5 percent, but much lower
than Clackamas county (at 25.9%), which includes much of the Portland metropolitan area. The
number of students eligible for free or reduced meals at Cottage Grove High School, however, is
lower than the district average of 53.7 percent and slightly higher than Lane County's 39 percent.
The free and reduced statistics are reinforced by poverty levels: 17 percent of Cottage Grove
families earn wages under the poverty level, surpassing the state average by 33 percent. Comparing
the students at both high schools clearly determines that on average, students at Wilsonville high
school come from families than earn higher incomes than students at Cottage Grove High School.
Testing: Standardized and SAT
Oregon requires students statewide in grades 3, 5, 8, and 10 to participate in testing in the areas of
math, reading, and writing. The tests provide a

Urban bias has been presented as a major impediment to rural development because it perpetrates
discriminatory policies which create and perpetuate disparities between urban and rural areas and
consequently the development of urban areas at the expense of rural areas. This paper examines
how urban bias, to a large extent, is the major impediment to rural development owing to its skewed
policies and to down development approaches.
Urban bias proponents, chief among them Lipton (1977), argue that many underdeveloped nations
implement investment, tax, pricing, and other policies which disproportionately favour urban areas
at the expense of rural areas. The state enacts such policies because of pressure from elitist
urban–based groups such...show more content...
Notwithstanding, other causes of rural underdevelopment may be cited, such as unemployment and
low income levels (Francis, 2000). Income and employment are closely linked and have a
pronounced influence on poverty and development in general. Wage–related income is one of the
main determinants of rural poverty and underdevelopment. Wage income affords people the ability
to purchase necessities such as safe housing and sufficient healthy food (Francis, 2000). Higher
income status generally results in more control and discretion over basic needs. Higher wages result
in an increased ability to cover the costs of not only basic needs but also items of higher quality and
non–basic items such as higher education, specialized healthcare (Woodward, 1996).
Sociocultural factors also play a crucial role in promoting or impeding development. Factors such as
values and traditions that either encourage or discourage social and economic mobility, innovation
and entrepreneurship, also constitute a causal factor of rural underdevelopment (McLaughlin, 1986).
Barro (2000) found that some rural community leaders deliberately retard local economic
development to maintain their position of power and promote the well–being of those aligned with
them. The sociocultural approach blames the victims for their predicament and not their urban
