Exploring the Relationship in Farmer Producer Organisation and Financial Assistance Programme (PMKISAN) in Measuring Technical Efficiency among Rice Farmers in India Alok Kumar Pandey, Piyush Singh, Pawan Kumar Singh, Annapurna Dixit Indian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2025 The present study examined the impact of the two important initiatives for the farmers, the Farmer Producer Organisation and the Pradhan Mantri KISAN Scheme, on the technical efficiency of the rice growers in India.The stochastic frontier approach was applied to analyse 168 agricultural households producing rice in the Mirzapur District of Uttar Pradesh.These estimates found seed and irrigation as important variables influencing farmers' technical efficiency in this area.However, technical efficiency was recorded as relatively low, which justifies the possibility of improving the efficiency level through intervention.The mean technical efficiency was 84 per cent and 91 per cent for the two models, indicating that farmers with membership in the Farmer Producer Organisation and the financial assistance programme, as well as the PMKISAN schemes, benefit from these initiatives for efficient management, assistance, and utilisation of economic resources.The study recommends that the government and policymakers focus on establishing FPOs to improve access to resources, market networks, and bargaining power.
Exploring Livestock and Agricultural Income Poverty among Farming Households: Study Based on Mirzapur District of Uttar Pradesh Alok Kumar Pandey Indian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2024 This paper investigates poverty indices related to livestock and crop income among farming households. Data was collected from 400 households in the Mirzapur district. The study highlights the significant role of livestock ownership in poverty reduction, rural development, and food security, with women often managing livestock, contributing to their socio-economic empowerment. Various poverty indices, such as Headcount ratio, Poverty gap ratio, and Income gap ratio, were calculated for households with and without livestock. Results show that households with livestock earn around 21 per cent of their income from livestock and 73 per cent from crops, while households without livestock derive 89 per cent of their income from crops alone. Poverty indices are lower for households with livestock than those without, indicating that livestock ownership reduces poverty severity. The findings emphasize the need for policies promoting sustainable livestock production systems to alleviate poverty, particularly among small and marginal farmers. Providing access to subsidized livestock breeds and enhancing rural livestock promotion could contribute to higher incomes and employment generation in rural areas.
Impact of pandemic on development and demography in different continents and nations Pawan Kumar Singh, Alok Kumar Pandey, Ravi Kiran, Rajiv Kumar Bhatt, Anushka Chouhan International Journal of Finance and Economics, 2023 This study has collected information of 145 countries to predict the effect of cases per million (CPM), tests per million (TPM), and proportion of people aged 65 and above (PAO) on the number of deaths per million DPM at the country and continent level. In addition, it evaluates the economic cost of tests, deaths, COVID‐19 cases in terms of reduction in GDP growth rate across the countries. This paper uses a different econometrics model, including analysis of variance (ANOVA), regression, and multinomial regression model. The robust regression model with M and MM‐estimation was also used due to leverage and residuals in country wise GDP database. A significant difference was found in deaths per million (DPM), TPM, number of COVID‐19 cases (CPM), and percentage of people aged 65 and above (PAO) across continents. The DPM is negatively associated with TPM, and it was relatively more effective in reducing DPM in Africa (0.32%) as compared to Asia (0.25%) and Europe (0.28). The results show that a 1% increase in the elderly population causes a 0.62% increase in DPM in Africa, while it caused a 2.31% increase in Europe. The study will be helpful in ascertaining the impact of these indicators in this pandemic and help in policy formation and decision‐making strategies to fight the COVID19 pandemic.
Comparison of ARIMA, SutteARIMA, and Holt-Winters, and NNAR Models to Predict Food Grain in India Ansari Saleh Ahmar, Pawan Kumar Singh, R. Ruliana, Alok Kumar Pandey, Stuti Gupta Forecasting, 2023 The agriculture sector plays an essential function within the Indian economic system. Foodgrains provide almost all the calories and proteins. This paper aims to compare ARIMA, SutteARIMA, Holt-Winters, and NNAR models to recommend an effective model to predict foodgrains production in India. The execution of the SutteARIMA predictive model used in this analysis was compared with the established ARIMA, Neural Network Auto-Regressive (NNAR), and Holt-Winters models, which have been widely applied for time series prediction. The findings of this study reveal that both the SutteARIMA model and the Holt-Winters model performed well with real-life problems and can effectively and profitably be engaged for food grain forecasting in India. The food grain forecasting approach with the SutteARIMA model indicated superior performance over the ARIMA, Holt-Winters, and NNAR models. Indeed, the actual and predicted values of the SutteARIMA and Holt-Winters forecasting models are quite close to predicting foodgrains production in India. This has been verified by MAPE and MSE values that are relatively low with the SutteARIMA model. Therefore, India’s SutteARIMA model was used to predict foodgrains production from 2021 to 2025. The forecasted amount of respective crops are as follows (in lakh tonnes) 1140.14 (wheat), 1232.27 (rice), 466.46 (coarse), 259.95 (pulses), and a total 3069.80 (foodgrains) by 2025.
COVID-19 pandemic and transmission factors: An empirical investigation of different countries Pawan Kumar Singh, Ravi Kiran, Rajiv Kumar Bhatt, Mosab I. Tabash, Alok Kumar Pandey, Anushka Chouhan Journal of Public Affairs, 2021 The present work evaluates the impact of age, population density, total population, rural population, annual average temperature, basic sanitation facilities, and diabetes prevalence on the transmission of COVID‐19. This research is an effort to identify the major predictors that have a significant impact on the number of COVID‐19 cases per million population for 83 countries. The findings highlight that a population with a greater share of old people (aged above 65) shows a higher number of COVID‐19 positive cases and a population with a lower median age has fewer cases. This can be explained in terms of higher co‐morbidities and the lower general immunity in the older age group. The analysis restates the widely seen results that a higher median age and greater prevalence of co‐morbidities leads to higher cases per million and lesser population density and interpersonal contact helps in containing the spread of the virus. The study finds foundation in the assertion that a higher temperature might lower the number of cases, or that temperature in general can affect the infectivity. The study suggests that better access to sanitation is a certain measure to contain the spread of the virus. The outcome of this study will be helpful in ascertaining the impact of these indicators in this pandemic, and help in policy formation and decision‐making strategies to fight against it.
