Empirical Investigation Of The Performance Evaluation Of Rural Entrepreneurs In The Tenkasi District
S. Thiraviyam , Dr. S. Peter Emil Jebakumar
Abstract
Rural enterprises are functioning in a setting characterized by intense and fast-paced changes. Although entrepreneurship is widely acknowledged as a key driver for fostering rural economic growth, empirical research on rural entrepreneurship is conspicuously lacking, leaving the concept largely underexplored. The contributions of rural entrepreneurs and the function of certain developmental organizations in the establishment of micro and small village businesses have shown to be quite crucial, recognizing the significance of comprehending the conceptual framework of rural entrepreneurship. Rural entrepreneurship has become a central topic of theoretical, practical, and political attention. Numerous innovative fiscal incentives, concessions, and support mechanisms are being offered to entrepreneurs to bolster the economic foundation and promote more extensive industrialization. These measures include subsidies, low-interest credit, structured training programs, access to machinery through hire-purchase arrangements, and technical guidance. Collectively, these initiatives have contributed to the successful growth and performance of entrepreneurs.
