Sericulture is a cottage based industry which combines both the features of agriculture and industry. India has tremendous potential for silk development but yet unexploited, however, development is not far away. It is one of the major employment generating sectors in the state and its growth has immense employment generation potential, particularly in rural Karnataka. This studyis an attempt to analyze the agribusiness potential of sericulture in Karnataka. The study explored that there is a huge improvement in area, production and also employment from 2008-09 to 2015-16. The cultivated area was only 177943 hectares in 2008-09, which has improved over the years and has reached 208947 hectares in 2015-16 with a compound annual growth rate of 2 per cent. Similarly, the production in Karnataka was also increased from 5949MT in 2003-04 to 9645MT in 2014-15 with CAGR of 4 per cent. 27 per cent of the families of Karnataka are contributing to the total families engaged in Indian sericulture industry. In the year 2014-15, earnings from export were about Rs.2829.94 crore but it was reduced to Rs.2495.99 crore in the year 2015-16. The import earnings during the year 2015-16 was Rs.1389.10 crore. Hence, it is revealed from the study that sericulture has a very high employment potential. It is the biggest employer in the country only next to handloom industry. It is ideally suited to generate jobs in the rural areas and particularly in the drought prone areas. Sericulture gains added importance in the context of growing unemployment, both disguised and seasonal. Most of the farmers in India are poor and are not employed throughout the year. Sericulture can provide subsidiary employment to such farmers and augment their in comes.Keywords

The Indian banking system has undergone tremendous changes in the last decade, its financial soundness and performance being paramount in the achievement of a stable and sustainable economic growth. Thus, the aim of this research was to analyze the financial soundness of the public sector banks that operate in India. In order to achieve this, one of the most popular methods for the analysis of the financial soundness of banks namely CAMEL model was used. The obtained results highlight the strength and vulnerabilities of the analyzed banks underlying the need to strengthen the concerns of the decision makers from banks to improve and increase their soundness. The study concluded that the Punjab National Bank’s overall performance was very good followed by State Bank of India and the financial performance was very poor in case of IDBI.Keywords

The study conducted during 2016-17, investigated the factors influencing stress among the higher secondary students of a private school in Udumalpet Taluk (Tirupur District) of Tamil Nadu. Simple random technique was used to select a sample of 60 respondents. Descriptive statistics was employed to calculate Weighted Average Scores (WAS), which were ranked to find out the level of influence of various factors causing stress among the students. Besides, looking into the relationship with other people fight with family and friends (WAS=3.10) was the most influencing stress factor among students, followed by family problems (WAS=2.57) and frustration due to misunderstandings (WAS=2.37). Whereas, work pressure (WAS=3.15), change in sleeping habits (WAS=2.57) and financial difficulties (WAS=2.57) were the highly influencing personal factors. The academic factors include, increased class workload (WAS=3.33) and lack of university support (WAS=2.57). In addition, lack of vacations / break (WAS=3.17) and divorce between parents (WAS=3.03) remained a serious cause of stress among the environmental factors. The study concluded that, among the factors influencing stress, increased class work load (WAS=3.33) and lack of vacation or break (WAS=3.32) were the major cause for stress among the students. On the other hand, change in eating habits (WAS=1.90), missing lectures (WAS=1.90), lower grades (WAS=2.00) andnew responsibilities (WAS=2.00) have not influenced the most. So, curriculum might be framed in such a way that, it does not feel burdensome for the students with timely intervals and vacations, which might help in refreshing the students themselves from their work load.Keywords
