Abstract 
Due to their restricted access to money markets, agricultural producers in the Theni area encounter many obstacles while attempting to use financial services. Despite the government's various changes and the money sector reforms, many rural farmers have remained in financial distress with limited access to safety nets like as loans to battle malnutrition and famine. The purpose of this article is to confirm the variables that influence farmers' requests for agricultural financing. A survey in the district of Theni was carried out. Fifty farmers were given a pre-tested form using each purposive and sampling approach. Interviews were used to get the data because the majority of square 2 measure were unwilling to fill out the questionnaire. A regression model was utilised for the analysis of knowledge.

Abstract

 Indian Railways (IR) because of its size of operations and service to millions of passengers daily need efficient materials and logistic support to maintain IR as reliable, agile and economical life line of the nation. Materials Management is a huge activity on IR with tens and thousands of items required any time, any where and any quantity to maintain the assets and mammoth operations on daily basis. The benefits of End-to End digitisation of Indian Railways Supply Chain has a missing link in traceability of the items quickly specially the items required on ad hoc basis called non-stock items, primarily due to non-codification of Non-Stock items and all stakeholders throughout the supply chain would benefit, supported by the results of the survey conducted. Survey results provide the purpose and associated potential benefits of Non-Stock item standardisation. Based on literature survey, a system is proposed system for Non-Stock item master standardisation with anticipated potential benefits. With proper policy support, IR can achieve industry standard Item Master which is scalable and technology centric to support its procurement processes and reap benefits.
