- W2252643596 abstract "The technology of production available with Khadi cannot even be compared to the existing modern high speed spinning and weaving machinery. Khadi Industry possesses quite a rudimentary technology from the time of its inception in both spinning and weaving. Theoretically it is expected that a change to or an introduction of new technology would bring about a phenomenal rise in, employment generation, production, sales etc. to cater to the employment demand of rural labour force in India, at least by giving them employment opportunities during off-season as envisaged by Gandhiji. 1970 is taken as a bench-mark year for our further analysis as it happens to be the year when NMC as a new technology was introduced. Initially introduction of new technology of NMC improved the productivity to a large extent. But with the increase in Production, Sales could not be sustained for a long time as the marketing aspect has been largely neglected. Employment though increased initially but that too sustained a set back due to fall in demand. Even the earnings of artisans are found to be un-sustainable to support their families. Moreover, field observations revealed that a lack of dynamism in terms of information dissemination regarding R&D by KVIC, lack of in-house R&D by institutions, adaptation and further improvement in the technology are some other key elements for the descent of Khadi industry. There is definitely a need for powerisation in pre-weaving stage this will contribute towards the development of the artisans family by freeing the additional family members involved in pre-weaving, particularly children for adequate schooling. Further sustained attempts should be made to use power in the charaka to reduce drudgery, enhance productivity and wages. It takes a longer gestation of time to implement those innovations as technologies in large scale. Not many institutions have taken up R & D activities. There are no improvements to reduce the drudgery of the artisans from a long period of time. In short we can say that Information network flow within KVIC and its agencies is quite poor. Technological Diffusion is incomplete and though there exists physical capacity and opportunity to invent by sizeable institutions and KVIC research agencies, but lack of sufficient financial assistance and pressure to innovate scuttle the progress of R&D. Moreover there is a need for comprehensive, coordinated research and documentation of innovations and its dissemination.The study analysis revealed that the hope seems to be lying in innovation of higher spindle charkas, which would involve lesser drudgery and fetch more wages. Further training of Weavers in order to improve their skill formation and innovation in improvement of looms and designs of products to encourage production of highly value-added products is also the need of the hour. However, it is heartening to know that some of the suggestions mentioned in the TISS Report (2000) are being implemented by KVIC today after a decade. We can see some of the policy suggestion implemented like Scheme For Enhancing Productivity & Competitiveness Of Khadi Industry & Artisans and Asian Development Bank (ADB) signed a loan agreement for the $150 million Khadi Reform and Development Program (KRDP). These programmes aim at phased replacement of implements and improving the technology to make spinning and weaving implements more efficient and less prone to drudgery, skill development through Quality Training Facilities and good quality marketing assistance." @default.
