CONCLUDING REMARKS
CONCLUDING REMARKS.
Such an analysis of budgets of some families representing the different economic classes in the rural society of the district can be said to describe, though not in strictly accurate statistical terms, the economic condition of the rural masses.
The investigations revealed that except for a small section of big cultivators the majority of the population live either on or below the margin of subsistence. Except in summer when some persons find employment in the production and export of mangoes and cashew-nuts there is no alternative channel of employment. Consequently, there is an exodus of people to Bombay.
