Research paper thumbnail of Antecedents of Livelihood Development Using Cold Chains in the Horticultural Sector of the Emerging Markets: A Systematic Literature Review

The study analyses trends, theories, settings, constructions, research methods, and findings based on Keynes’ “confidence theory”, the absolute income hypothesis, and the human development index. Using the Theory, Constructs, Characteristics, and Methodology (TCCM) framework, the paper offers a Systematic Literature Review of 67 scholarly research papers with fifty or more citations published between 2000 and 2021 in EBSCO, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases. The study advocates that a Cold Chain must be considered with the intervention of contract farming, government, cooperative or farmer-producer organisations to reap maximum benefits from horticultural production during the off-and-on seasons rather than selling to opportunistic intermediaries. The study also has important implications for future researchers and policy-makers but, most importantly, offers motivation ...

The study aims to evaluate the government policy implementation in tackling the global pandemic and framing universal policies for responsible governance. It also measures the impact of training interventions and non-training implications in containing the spread of COVID-19 at the grassroots level. Methods. The samples were drawn empirically from pathological tests conducted over 23 weeks to precisely examine the success of the State Government's approach in lowering COVID-19 mortality and spread. Through trend analysis, the outcome has been predicted. The study establishes a link between acknowledged ideas and government practices, providing insight into how relevant the implementation of planned state-craft programs is. Results. The findings indicated that government-imposed policies account for timely pandemic containment, and even a tiny developing state lacking advanced medical facilities and technology can set an example in combating the epidemic. Conclusions. The te...

in tackling the global pandemic and framing universal policies for responsible
governance. It also measures the impact of training interventions and non-training
implications in containing the spread of COVID-19 at the grassroots level.
Methods. The samples were drawn empirically from pathological tests conducted
over 23 weeks to precisely examine the success of the State Government’s approach
in lowering COVID-19 mortality and spread. Through trend analysis, the outcome
has been predicted. The study establishes a link between acknowledged ideas
and government practices, providing insight into how relevant the implementation
of planned state-craft programs is.
Results. The findings indicated that government-imposed policies account for
timely pandemic containment, and even a tiny developing state lacking advanced
medical facilities and technology can set an example in combating the epidemic.
Conclusions. The temporal analysis is based on the inputs acquired from
government publications and other sources, allowing us to assess policy initiatives
that encompass training interventions and non-training implications as prioritised
by the State Government. The paper shows that a good emergency preparedness
and response system is needed to prevent huge losses in any sector. This includes
the already-struggling health sector, which India needs to put first to avoid more
tragedies.
