Researcher conducted this study to measure the impact of fertilizers and pesticides on the production of agriculture sector. Current research was based on the secondary data related to the usage of fertilizers and the pesticides by Indian farmers for agriculture and the total production of the agriculture sector. Data has been taken trom the official reports of the Ministry of Agriculture and the period reported for the data was of fifteen years starting from 2001 to 2016. It was found from the study that agriculture production and the yield per hectare both are associated with the usage of fertilizers in the country. Agriculture production will get increase with the increased usage of fertilizers. While pesticides do not ensure any increase in the agriculture production. Further, it was found from the study that even if there is an increase in the net irrigated area, but still the agriculture production has not increased.Keywords

Current studyaims to determine the current situtation of financial assets and liabilities of household sector in India. Researchers have also measured the relationship between household sector savings and the changes in financial assets or financial liabilities of the household sector. Study was based on the secondary data derived trom the annual publication of Reserve Bank of India tittles 'Statistics of Indian Economy'. Study covered the period trom 2011-12 to 2016-17. In order to determine the current situtaion of the financial assets and liabilities ofhousehold sector in India, researchers have used graphical and tabular form of data representation while for measuring the impact of changes in financial assets or financial libaiities of the household sector on the savings ofhoushold sector, linear regression analysis has been used. It was found that the changes in financial assets of the household sector has a positive and significant impact on the savings of household sector while changes in financial liabilities has a negative and insignificant impact on the savings ofhousehold sector.Keywords
