The rural youth are disoriented and clueless in the face of lack of income generating and employment opportunities.
The problems of young men and women, as well as their vision and aspirations are essential elements of the
challenges facing today’s societies and future generations. Farm and nonfarm enterprises in rural areas will be able
to channelize energies of youth population in a constructive manner for regional and consequently national
development. An action research project was undertaken by IARI for enhancing entrepreneurship among rural youth
aiming at identification, prioritization of feasible agricultural technology, technological empowerment and hand
holding for agripreneurship development in four selected villages of National Capital Region of Delhi; namely
Partapur (Hapur), Hasangarh (Rohtak), Kansala (Rohtak) and Badarpur Said (Faridabad). The participatory
prioritization was done involving micro screening exercise which is a very important step positioned between the
project idea generation and the final decision about the most promising business idea. Micro screening exercise based
on situational analysis of villages revealed that floriculture, seed production, net house cultivation, vermi compost/
organic products, apiary, value addition, mushroom production and dairy enterprises excelled in order of scores
gained irrespective of location. The psychological traits including need for achievement, aspirations and risk taking
willingness of the potential entrepreneurs were found to be of moderate level at initial stage.
