CBSE Class 9 Economics The Story of Village Palampur Worksheet Set A-1

 

For both crops, Green Revolution was not equally successful. We can look at the graph and analyse that in 1965-66, the production of both crops was 10 million tonnes, but after a long gap of 35 years in 2000-01, production of pulses raised to 11 million tonnes and the other crop wheat’s production raised to 70 million tonnes. So it can be said that Green revolution has seen more success in the production of wheat.

Question. Modern farming methods require the farmer to start with more cash than before. Why?
Answer : The working capital is more in case of modern farming because one needs to employ costly farming techniques and the costs of the modern fertilizers, other chemicals and seeds are also higher than the conventional equipments.

Question. Compare the production of wheat by the three farmers over 3 years.
Answer :
On comparing the production of wheat by the three farmers over 3 years, we observe that:
(i)The continuous increase in all the three years in the production of wheat of the farmer-1.
(ii) The production of wheat of farmer-2 has been constant in three years. It neither increased nor decreased.
(iii) The continuous decrease in the all the three years in the production of farmer-3.

Question. Read the following descriptions and answer the questions that follow:
Kareem has opened a computer class centre in the village. In recent years, a large number of students have been attending college in Shahpur town. Kareem found that a number of students from the village are also attending computer classes in the town. There were two women in the village having a degree in computer applications. He decided to employ them. He bought computers and set up the classes in the front room of their house overlooking the market. High class students have started attending them in good numbers.
1) In what ways is Kareem's capital and labour different from Mishrilal’s?
2) Why didn't someone start a computer centre earlier? Discuss the possible reasons.
Answer :
1) Kareem’s capital is computer which is fixed capital when on the other side Mishrilal’s capital is sugarcane crushing machine which is his fixed capital. Kareem has hired two women as labourer where Mishrilal’s labour is his own family members, he didn’t need to hire any labour, and he is self-employed.
2) Someone didn’t start a computer centre earlier because of the lack of education and electricity facilities. The other possible reasons could be non-availability of persons of having a degree especially in computer education, less students etc.

Answer : The minimum wages for a farm labourer set by the government are 60 per day so the small labourers of a village are poor because of the uneven distributions of the land and the social hierarchy based on the farming.
 
Question.  Why most of the small farmers have to borrow from moneylenders or the traders?
Answer : Most of the small farmers have to borrow from moneylenders or the traders because to start and agriculture a man needs capital. The poor people of his village do not have adequate capital in their hand so they have to borrow from money lenders and traders.
