 Abstract

Contract farming has emerged as a significant model of agricultural commercialization in India, offering small farmers an opportunity to link directly with agribusiness firms and organized markets. This study explores the extent, patterns, and socio-economic impact of contract farming on smallholders in Baghpat district, Uttar Pradesh. It investigates how contractual arrangements influence farmers' income, cropping choices, standard of living, and access to inputs and markets. Additionally, the study examines the types of companies involved, the nature of contracts offered, and the benefits and challenges experienced by farmers under such agreements. Through field-level surveys and interviews with 200 small farmers, the study captures qualitative and quantitative insights into contract farming's role in transforming rural livelihoods. Special attention is given to variations based on age, caste, and education, to understand the inclusivity and equity of such models. The research highlights that while contract farming can provide benefits such as assured pricing, input support, and technical guidance, farmers often face challenges related to delayed payments, lack of written agreements, and limited legal awareness. The findings suggest that although contract farming has the potential to enhance rural development, its success depends on fair contractual practices, effective grievance redressal mechanisms, and policy support to protect smallholders' interests. The study recommends strengthening legal frameworks, promoting written contracts, forming farmer producer organizations (FPOs), and enhancing legal literacy among farmers. By focusing on the case of Baghpat, the research contributes to a deeper understanding of contract farming's viability as a tool for inclusive agricultural growth.

 Abstract

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have emerged as a robust and scalable solution for providing broadband wireless connectivity. However, challenges such as dynamic topology, interference, routing complexity, and scalability persist. Artificial Intelligence (AI), with its capabilities in learning, prediction, and optimization, offers novel solutions to enhance the performance of WMNs. This article reviews the integration of AI techniques--such as machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and fuzzy logic--into various layers of WMNs, including routing, channel allocation, traffic prediction, security, and fault management. In the field of Computer Networks, a Mesh Network is one of the revolutionary concepts for communication and data transmission in a set of various nodes. The Mesh Network is a decentralized communication system that is used for data transmission and data collection In this approach the nodes are directly connected, where there is the dynamic web interconnections among them, and the transmission takes place.

 Abstract

As our lives become more intertwined with digital technologies, we leave behind extensive online footprints--everything from social media posts to cloud files--that often linger even after we pass away. The idea of a digital afterlife revolves around how this data and our digital personas continue to exist, are managed, or even "live on" after we're gone. Research and industry activity are increasingly showing that many users are either unaware of or unprepared for their digital legacies. Meanwhile, new technologies like AI chatbots, avatars, and holograms are emerging, claiming to simulate or preserve the essence of the deceased through their data. These advancements bring about a host of legal, ethical, and emotional challenges: ownership of data is often murky since platforms typically hold the rights to the content, and while some may find comfort in interacting with a "digital ghost," for others, it can intensify their grief. This paper delves into the literature surrounding the digital afterlife, exploring technical solutions, user behaviors, legal frameworks (like RUFADAA and GDPR), cultural perspectives, and management strategies. We conducted a thorough literature review of academic articles, industry reports, news pieces, and legal analyses. Our findings reveal a disconnect between the growing number of digital estates and current estate-planning practices, highlighting the urgent need for clear policies, ethical guidelines, and increased public awareness. We propose a framework for managing digital assets, emphasizing the roles of individuals (like digital wills and executors), platforms, and regulators in protecting posthumous digital legacies.
