Entrepreneurial behaviour of rural youth practicing integrated farming system: dimensions and measurement
Author(s): Naresh NT, Krishnamurhy B and Nagaraj KH
Abstract: The comprehensive scale consisting of fourteen components and relevant statements serve as a tool to assess the entrepreneurial behaviour of rural youth practicing IFS. The social research methodology using Guilford was followed to develop the scale. The fourteen components of entrepreneurial behaviour assumed values ranging from 0.07 to 11.38 with innovativeness getting the highest scale value. The scale helps in identifying the factors leading to successful and unsuccessful rural youth entrepreneurs practicing IFS which will further support in framing policies by the Government to design educational activities and extension strategies by research institutions, training agencies and Krishi Vigyan Kendras. The financial institutions can adopt the scale in deciding criteria for extending loan to rural youth entrepreneurs. The rural youth entrepreneurs can use the scale to assess their entrepreneurial skills.
