Overview of Village Palampur
Overview of Village Palampur
The story of village Palampur is narrative based on a research study by Gilbert Etienna of a village in Bulandshahr district in Western Uttar Pradesh. The purpose of the story is to introduce some basic concepts relating to production.
Overview: Farming is the main production activity in a hypothetical village named Palampur. Other production activities like dairy farming, manufacturing, transportation and shopkeeping are practised on a limited scale. These production activities need various types of resources like natural resources, man-made items, human effort, money, etc.
Palampur is having an all weather road connecting it to a bigger village Raiganj and the nearest small town called Shahpur. All kinds of vehicles move on this road.
Out of the 450 families living in Palampur, about 80 upper caste families own the majority of land and have large and well-constructed permanent houses. The SCs (dalits) in the village comprise about one-third of the population and are landless labourers. They live in one corner of the village in smaller houses, some of which are poorly constructed with mud and straw.
Almost houses in Palampur have electric connections. Electricity powers all the tubewells used for irrigating crops, besides providing power for running small-scale manufacturing and other business activities in Palampur. It has two primary schools and one high school. It also has a government primary health centre and a private dispensary.
The description above shows that Palampur has fairly well-developed systems of roads, transport, electricity, irrigation, schools and health facilities. Similarly, all the Indian villages have farming as their main production activity and similar non-farm activities.
Production activity: The creation of value or wealth by producing goods and services.
Resources Commodities or services used to produce goods and services.
