scholarly journals To Study the Role of E-Commerce to Sustain Agripreneres

India is called as Agrarian country as many people dependent on agriculture for their livelihood. Agriculture plays a vital role in the development of economic system. The agricultural sector contribution is majorly increasing to marketable surplus. The durable products like rice, pulses, cereals ,legume , spices, tobacco, coffee, etc. are being marketed through online. Nearly 50 E commerce websites are promoting technology as well as agri products. Agri-Commerce constitutes a good market in business world. COVID -19 an outbreak of a pandemic disease. The entire world faces this pandemic in unified isolation. It is badly affected to marketing of agricultural products due to lockdown. Logistic system is stopped to avoid the spreading of corona. All business partners and retailers are shutting their entrance doors around the world and encouraging their customers to shop online instead of direct sales. Perishable goods like Fruits and Flowers market has significantly affected. Mango fruit- juice Manufacturing Market has also been significantly impacted. This paper is exploring the problems faced by mango business people during covid age in prakasam dt and identifying a solution of to this problem by creating the information system (IS) which is formal and user friendly. An organized system can be designed to collect, process, store, and distribute seasonal fruits with good quality for consumers at easy delivery and at low prices. ANOVA and Literature Survey Method are mainly used to reach the objectives.

Abstract:: Now-a-days when everything is going digitalized, internet and web plays a vital role in everyone’s life. When one has to ask something or has any online task to perform, one has to use internet to access relevant web-pages throughout. These web-pages are mainly designed for large screen terminals. But due to mobility, handy and economic reasons most of the persons are using small screen terminals (SST) like mobile phone, palmtop, pagers, tablet computers and many more. Reading a web page which is actually designed for large screen terminal on a small screen is time consuming and cumbersome task because there are many irrelevant content parts which are to be scrolled or there are advertisements, etc. Here main concern is e-business users. To overcome such issues the source code of a web page is organized in tree data-structure. In this paper we are arranging each and every main heading as a root node and all the content of this heading as a child node of the logical structure. Using this structure, we regenerate a web-page automatically according to SST size. Background:: DOM and VIPS algorithms are the main background techniques which are supporting the current research. Objective:: To restructure a web page in a more user friendly and content presenting format. Method Backtracking:: Method Backtracking: Results:: web page heading queue generation. Conclusion:: Concept of logical structure supports every SST.

Embedded systems in Agriculture play a vital role in unifying the work involved and improve conservations. Designing a smart as well as a cost efficient and more user-friendly system will be idealistic challenge. The following system that has been proposed is designed with those ideal constraints in mind. It consists of a Raspberry pi3 as a gateway that links the sensor networks with the cloud. To improve security an MQTT protocol is used for cloud connectivity. The communication between the sensor networks is managed by NRF24L01. The Sensor network is a separate entity that can used like a plug and play device and is built by a micro controller with a LCD display and an interfaced GPS. Multicasting is also possible between sensor networks and the gateway. The processed data from the sensor networks is sent through NRF24L01 to the gateway. The gateway further processes and encapsulates the data and through MQTT the data gets stored on the cloud. This cloud data can be accessed through computer or mobile device

Purpose – The main aim of this paper is to identify whether user demographic characteristics, computer skills, user education, user assistance and user-friendly OPAC (online public access catalog) have an impact on their satisfaction in the context of users in an Indian university setting. Design/methodology/approach – The survey method was utilized and a questionnaire was designed to collect data. The study is based on a sample of the 384 questionnaires from the three universities located in the Union Territory of Chandigarh and Punjab State. To analyze the data collected, SPSS package (version 14.0) was used, and also to produce requisite cross-tabulations. Chi-square testing was performed to determine the association of user satisfaction with the variables covered in the study. Findings – The findings highlighted that overall there was a low degree of satisfaction among the users. With the exception of academic majors, in general, there were no significant differences between satisfaction and user demographic characteristics. Overall satisfaction was significantly higher for those who were possessed with adequate knowledge on OPAC, and had received staff assistance, as well as necessary education on OPAC. The study showed that satisfaction with ease of usage of OPAC was higher. It was also found that users were well-equipped with computers and had attained skills while frequently searching the web, however, it was also revealed that mere possession of computer skills was not sufficient for efficient use of OPAC, resulting in the attainment of a high level of satisfaction. Originality/value – The paper brings out the fact of how user demographic characteristics, computer skills, user education, user assistance, and user-friendly OPAC, influence user satisfaction in a university educational set up. The findings will be beneficial for increasing user satisfaction levels in order to retain existing OPAC users because OPAC will continue to be a necessary tool for accessing quality academic information available in both print and electronic format.

The role of assessment systems in organizational excellence today is well-known in the business world. Performance assessment in organizations to identify strengths and weaknesses to make optimal use of resources has special significance. The changing needs of customers and stakeholders, competition, constant changes in laws and regulations, and reliance on traditional methods will not result in enhanced performance within global hypercompetition. Therefore, it has become necessary to employ models which possess the ability to evaluate organizations' present situation for strategic planning. In this regard, the EFQM Model is known as one of the most comprehensive performance evaluation tools. This study uses a descriptive-analytical survey method to evaluate Mehr Iran Bank's performance based on the EFQM Model. Research instruments in this survey include a personal details questionnaire and a special questionnaire. The SPSS software and the Kolmogrov-Smirnov test have been used to analyze data and check the normality of the variables, respectively.

Abstract Protein dynamics is central to all biological processes, including signal transduction, cellular regulation and biological catalysis. Among them, in-depth exploration of ligand-driven protein dynamics contributes to an optimal understanding of protein function, which is particularly relevant to drug discovery. Hence, a wide range of computational tools have been designed to investigate the important dynamic information in proteins. However, performing and analyzing protein dynamics is still challenging due to the complicated operation steps, giving rise to great difficulty, especially for nonexperts. Moreover, there is a lack of web protocol to provide online facility to investigate and visualize ligand-driven protein dynamics. To this end, in this study, we integrated several bioinformatic tools to develop a protocol, named Ligand and Receptor Molecular Dynamics (LARMD, http://chemyang.ccnu.edu.cn/ccb/server/LARMD/ and http://agroda.gzu.edu.cn:9999/ccb/server/LARMD/), for profiling ligand-driven protein dynamics. To be specific, estrogen receptor (ER) was used as a case to reveal ERβ-selective mechanism, which plays a vital role in the treatment of inflammatory diseases and many types of cancers in clinical practice. Two different residues (Ile373/Met421 and Met336/Leu384) in the pocket of ERβ/ERα were the significant determinants for selectivity, especially Met336 of ERβ. The helix H8, helix H11 and H7-H8 loop influenced the migration of selective agonist (WAY-244). These computational results were consistent with the experimental results. Therefore, LARMD provides a user-friendly online protocol to study the dynamic property of protein and to design new ligand or site-directed mutagenesis.
