Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L) Millsp.) plant produces protein rich seeds which are commonly used as 'Dhal' (split seed/pulse) and could also be consumed as vegetable at edible green pod stage. Its value as a delicious protein rich vegetable has not been widely appreciated in this subcontinent nor the reports are available about the chemical or nutritional characteristics of varieties preferred for use as vegetable.

Fluoride contamination in aquatic ecosystem has been recognized as one of the major problems worldwide and it is imposing a serious threat to aquatic organisms. It induces adverse physiological and biochemical effect in animals. The present study has been planned to observe toxic effect of Sodium fluoride on antioxidative biomarkers like LPO, SOD, and GSH in a fresh water catfish Heteropneustes fossilis. Fish were exposed to two sub lethal concentrations of Sodium fluoride for 30 days. After exposure, fish were sacrificed for collection of tissues for biochemical assay. It was found that SOD, GSH decreased significantly while LPO increased significantly in treated fish as compared to control. Results indicate concentration dependent induction of oxidative stress and subsequent alternations in the activities of non enzymatic and enzymatic antioxidants like LPO, GSH and SOD.Keywords

Lilium is one of the important bulbous flowers grown in Kumaun hills of Uttarakhand. Present study aims at examining cost incurred in production in terms of percentage and investigating the existing marketing system. The study reveals that the operational cost during first year was the most important item of cost, accounting for 37.32 per cent of the total operational cost. Cuttings formed the chief component of material cost accounting for 97.57 per cent of the total material cost. Cost of production was very high in first year due to high labour and material cost. The yield per hectare was estimated to be 121982 spikes in the first year. Thereafter, yield declined and decreased to 98806 in third year. It is found that lilium cultivation is economically viable.The investigation also reveals that two marketing channels exist in the marketing of lilium flower in the study area. The marketing cost as percentage of consumers rupee, borne by producer in channel-I was 6.41 per cent and 6.36 per cent in channel-II. It was found that retailers get higher relative share in consumer’s rupee. It is suggested that liberal credit facilities need to be made operative for farmers, as Lilium is highly capital intensive enterprise. Development of wholesale markets close to production clusters and related infrastructure in terms of storage, packaging, transport and market information also need to be strengthened to give a boost to production and return from the market.Keywords

Unemployment is not only a problem in itself but also mother of all problems existent in the society and nation as a whole. In any nation where unemployment is a permanent phenomenon, all other problems cannot remain far behind. Unemployment exists in many forms. It exists in all developed and underdeveloped economies in variable proportions. In case of an underdeveloped economy, it exists in forms of structural unemployment and disguised unemployment, along with cyclical and frictional types of unemployment in small measures. Present paper studies various bases on which unemployment is defined along with different types of unemployment existing in Indian economy.Keywords

Proper utilization of workforce ensures the development of all the nations of the world. It is the resource which guarantees the utilization of different factors of production and gives a boost to growth and development of nations. It is important for all the nations of the world to take care of its workforce and its employability, if they wish to develop their economy in long as well as short run. India has become the youngest nation of the world and possesses the demographic dividend. But, the demographic dividend of India is not being utilized properly. India does not possess the required amount of capital formation to engage the increase in the workforce of the Indian economy. The workforce participation rate in India is lower than in most countries in the world. If taken in absolute terms also, it is lowest in the present decade as well. Almost 50 percent of the population of India does not contribute anything to the economic development and is dependent on the rest of the population which is employed. If this trend of decline in workforce, participation rate continues for some more years than the Indian economy may have to face serious consequences. It is with this imperative that the present paper highlights the present and past trends of workforce participation rate of India and presents the true picture of the situation.Keywords

Deterioration in health due to junk food consumption is a global concern, with adolescents at a greater risk. A cross-sectional study was conducted to understand the dynamics of junk food consumption with obesity in adolescent Tibetan girls (13–18 years; N = 276) of Himachal Pradesh, India. A pretested schedule and anthropometric measurements were used for data collection. Descriptive and bivariate analysis was done. The odds ratio was the determined. The study found that 45.28% of the girls consumed some form of junk food. Also, 25.4% and 16.3% were also centrally obese according to waist–hip ratio (WHR) and waist–height ratio (WHtR) respectively. Girls who consumed junk food were found to be at a greater risk (WHR: OR = 7.942, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 4.132–15.262; WHtR: OR = 3.652, 95% CI = 1.820–7.327 at P < 0.001) of developing abdominal obesity. Frequent consumption of junk food was found to be remarkably high (77.60%) among the studied population. It is of utmost importance to prioritize implementation programmes on healthy eating habits through various government and non-government agencies in order to improve health among adolescents.Keywords
