MECHANIZATION OF AGRICULTURE
Mechanization in agriculture refers to the use of machinery to support and enhance farming operations. Over the past few centuries, but particularly in the last 300 years, agricultural techniques have increasingly relied on mechanization to boost productivity and efficiency. The introduction of steam and gasoline-powered machines in the early 1900s drove a rapid decline in the percentage of the US workforce engaged in farming, from 38% to just 3% by century's end. Key farm equipment includes tractors for plowing and hauling, tillage implements for soil preparation, spraying devices for crop protection, combines for harvesting grains, and planters/seeders for establishing crops. Mechanization provides benefits like substituting for expensive labor and compensating for seasonal workload variations,
Mechanization in Ethiopia: Experience of the private sector
Mechanization in Ethiopia is led by the private sector through importation, distribution, rental services and domestic manufacturing of agricultural machinery. Ethiopia has over 74 million hectares suitable for agriculture but only 13.6 million currently under production.

ESCORTS R&D IN FARM MECHANISATION- ICAR CII MEETINGS 23 May 2011
This document discusses opportunities for farm mechanization and R&D in India. It notes that while India has strong agricultural production, mechanization levels are still low compared to other countries. There are gaps in mechanization across the entire crop cycle, from tillage and seeding to harvesting and post-harvest. Increased mechanization could help boost productivity by enabling more efficient operations. The tractor market is growing and there is potential to expand into lower horsepower segments. Collaboration between government institutes, private sector, and farmers will be important to disseminate new machinery and optimized agricultural practices for adoption of technologies.
'MECHANIZATION IN HORTICULTURE CROPS''.pptx
The document discusses mechanization in horticulture crops. It defines mechanization as the process of changing from working largely by hand to using machinery. Mechanization is important in horticulture as it lowers labor costs, increases production and yields, and aids commercial agriculture. Key drivers for mechanization include increasing labor costs and decreasing availability of skilled labor. The document outlines various mechanized equipment used in horticulture like tractors, tillage implements, mulch layers, drones, and laser land levelers. While mechanization provides benefits, it also has disadvantages like high costs and not being suitable for small landholdings.

Extensive and intensive margins of india’s pulses trade
This document analyzes India's pulse imports and the extensive and intensive margins of trade. It finds:
1) India's pulse imports have grown significantly in recent decades, with the share of different pulses varying over time. Peas have increased from 17.7% to 50% of imports while chickpeas have declined from 24.3% to 3.7%.
2) Trade has expanded both through intensive margins (more imports from existing partners) and extensive margins (new trade flows from new partners/products). Yellow peas first expanded extensively and then intensively.
3) The margins varied across pulses and time periods. Extensive margins played a bigger role during shocks when new suppliers emerged. Intensive
Cooling effect of pulse imports on domestic prices
This document analyzes the effect of pulse imports on domestic pulse prices in India over the period of 2002-2012. It finds:
1) There is a cointegrating relationship between pulse imports and domestic prices in the long run, with increasing imports correlated with decreasing prices.
2) Impulse response functions show that a shock to prices leads to a sustained increase in imports for 20 weeks before prices stabilize.
3) Imports have played a reactive role in cooling domestic pulse markets rather than a proactive one, and need to be implemented quickly to effectively impact prices.
Price transmission in pulse to split (dal) value chain in delhi, india
1) The document analyzes price transmission along the value chain of pulses (chickpeas and pigeonpeas) in Delhi, India. It uses monthly wholesale and retail price data from 1999-2016.
2) Unit root, cointegration, and Granger causality tests find unidirectional causality from whole to split prices for chickpeas, and split to whole prices for pigeonpeas.
3) Autoregressive distributed lag models show significant relationships between wholesale split prices and retail split prices for both pulses, but no relationship between whole and split prices. This indicates imperfect competition in the pulses markets.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
