Agriculture around the globe serves as a powerful engine of Economic growth and development. In India, agriculture acts as a central pillar of economy as almost 60% of work force is employed in this sector. To increase the output of agriculture sector, the government intervenes by providing input subsidies. The Government of India is continuously providing subsidies on fertilizers, electricity, irrigation and credit, since early 1970s. The present study is an attempt to estimate the amount of subsidies granted by Government of India from time to time and the trends of total subsidies granted. The author tried to analyze the percentage increase in the amount of subsidies from 1976 to 2017-18 and to compare the agricultural output to the subsidies granted. In an attempt to find out the impact of subsidies on agricultural growth, the author analyzed that the fertilizer subsidies have increased with a rapid rate compared to other subsidies. The results show that the fertilizer subsidies have increased by 84.33% since 1991-92 compared to the agricultural output which increased by just 18.38% during the same period. The study is based upon the secondary data published by fertilizer association of India, agricultural statistics, Government of India, input survey of Government of India and fertilizers statistics (various issues).Keywords

Tourism around the globe is considered as a major tool of economic growth and development. Jammu And Kashmir State has a special status among the important tourist destinations of the world. Famous Pir Panjal range (Part of Lesser Himalyas) is known for its beautiful fresh water Lakes (called Sar) and huge green Meadows (called Margs). The range spreads over 900 Sq Kms area carrying 27 big and small Lakes and 12 Meadows, all above the height of 12000 ft from the sea level. In this paper the author has made an attempt to explore the unexplored tourist destinations of Pir Panjal Range by conducting a primary survey of the area. More strange and amazing are the findings that despite of having touching beauty, the area observes very small number of visitors and the number are continuously declining during the recent years. This decline is due to Urbanization, Government jobs etc. particularly among Nomads, who used to stay for 3-4 months in the area (Called Dhoks) along with their cattle every year. Findings indicate that the lack of basic facilities and non-availability of modern technology act as the main hindrance for growth of tourism in the area. Therefore the facilities like Road connectivity, Power supply, Mobile and Internet connectivity etc. can promote tourism and hence the Economic Growth and development of whole Pir Panjal Range. Famous Peer Ki Gali (Highest motor able pass on Mughal Road) is an exception, where thousands of travelers and tourists visit daily and the number is continuously on a hike. The study relies on the primary data and tabulation is done in most of the cases for better understanding and clear representation of data.Keywords
