The reality was positioned all through our monitoring on the space diploma (January March 2011), for example, at Kushtia space.

Ultimate thought:
Facet-by-side with the large sectors, improvement of little scale sectors on the semi-urban areas beside backwoods with correct consideration to ecological worries and precaution in all districts, probably in any manner upazilas and likewise union ranges (regional administrative units), can create larger employment of the farmhouse members. Neighborhood people create their very own revolutionary solutions and likewise enterprises, which rent nation youth. Oftentimes, the large enterprise folks and likewise single-interest group are found appearing in addition to circulating in opposition to little industries. Native public authorities (line ministries) can resolve such crises if any type of, and urge the little enterprise homeowners at metropolitan outskirts adjoining to rural areas, with motivations if wanted. If sectors particularly associated to meals dealing with, nation transport, or home necessaries develop at rural areas with appropriate warning for environment in addition to unsafe labor, in addition to with out squandering cultivable land, can somewhat save agriculture homes from shedding lands, assist enduring farming manufacturing and likewise convention varied different expenditures together with these for training and studying. The insufficient, low in addition to little farmhouse contributors are discovered to have spent share of their earnings from totally different off-farm actions (for example, from cattle rearing) and industries of their agriculture farming, which marks a significantly better administration of their agriculture farming in addition to land.
