Challenges And Its Remedies For Rural Entrepreneurship Development In India

Abstract

Unemployment, especially among rural people, is one of the biggest challenges facing India. As a result, people are migrating from rural areas to urban areas in search of better employment opportunities and quality of life. Agriculture is the most important economic activity, but post-harvest losses such as food weight loss, food quality loss, food value loss, and economic value loss make food less acceptable to consumers, resulting in, resulting in lower national yields or reduced profits. Farmers are linked to rural poverty factors. Rural youth are educated, but unlike urban youth, they are not qualified. The lack of new, challenging and better employment opportunities in the agricultural sector limits employment opportunities for educated rural youth. Therefore, there is a need to create new agricultural entrepreneurship and employment opportunities in agriculture to reduce rural population outmigration and promote rural development. Therefore, entrepreneurship in food processing and food value addition can lead to an employment boom in rural areas. It is a better way to reduce poverty and develop rural areas. The government has launched numerous vocational courses, training programmes, youth skill development programmes, and programs to promote rural entrepreneurship.
