Title : Employment and Income Generation Through Horticultural Industries Material Type: printed text Authors: Thapa, Prahlad Kumar, Author Pagination: 34-45 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: elasticity, gross domestic products, income, labour employment and
productivityAbstract: Agriculture is the main occupation of the majority of the population of Nepal. As
agricultural labour productivity is low it is the main reason for widespread poverty. This
clearly shows that there is a need to enhance total agricultural productivity to enhance
agricultural labour productivity. In view of the diverse agro-ecological zones and growing
markets, horticulture is a promising sector· to enhance employment and income to
expedite the pace of agricultural growth in Nepal. Agriculture contributes 33 percent to
GOP and lwrticulture contributes 21 percent to AGDP. There is high growth of labour
force (2.6%) while employment opportunity is low (5% unemployed and 22 percent
underemployed). Underemployment is largely due to self employment in agriculture. In
such a situation increasing wage and employment is not possible at the same time. Under
such circumstance, there is a need to enhance agricultural productivity. Increasing
agricultural productivity would be possible by adopting comparatively high income
generating commodities like replacing traditional cereal crops by horticultural crops.
Horticultural crops have high income elasticity (about 0.5). There is a large trade deficit of
horticultural commodities. On the production side, horticultural crops give higher returns
(about twice) and greater employment (about 1.5 times) than traditional cereal crops. The
development potential is still under-harnessed, due to which Nepal is importing large
quantities of fruits and vegetables from India. Despite its current contribution and potential
future, the importance of horticulture has not received due priority in the agricultural
development policies. Hence, it is recommended that development policy should focus on
horticulture to enhance employment and income generating opportunities in the country.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=201 Employment and Income Generation Through Horticultural Industries [printed text] / Thapa, Prahlad Kumar, Author . - [s.d.] . - 34-45 p.
