Non-Probability Sampling Non-Probability Sampling methods can be useful when descriptive comments about the sample itself are desired. They are quick, inexpensive, and convenient. There are also other circumstances, such as in applied social research, when it is unfeasible or impractical to conduct probability sampling. The following are the techniques to use  Non-Probability sampling: I.                    Convenience Sampling A sample is selected from a readily available list like telephone directory, voters’ list; however do not follow random selection procedures. The researcher studies all sampling items which are most conveniently available. Most of the pilot tests and pre-tests use connivances sampling. This sampling is easy and less expensive compared with other methods. II.                 Purposive sampling In this sampling, the researcher sample with a purpose in mind. And usually would have one or more specific predefined groups that the researcher is seeking. Purposive samp

Probability Sampling     There all universes have equal opportunity to get selected which we cannot see in non-probability sampling. The researcher may use I.                    Simple random sampling  This is the simplest form of random sampling. The main objective of the Simple random Sampling is to select sample size units out of Population size. This sampling method give equal opportunity to responds to the researcher. This type of sampling is known as Chance Sampling or Probability sampling where each and every item in the population has an equal chance to inclusion in the sample.             Steps follow to achieve a Simple Random Sampling a.        Assign number to each population unit b.       Decide the sample size c.        Required sampling unit can be selected either by lottery method or using random number table. II.                 Systematic random sampling This is a method of selecting a sample when a list of the units of the population to be sampled is available. There

Sampling Sampling is a process of selecting units from a population or universe of interest. Mostly, researcher selects only few items from universe for the study. If the researcher select whole universe for his/her study that is known as Census which is not possible to all study. If the universe is very large it is not possible to researcher to collect data from them so they select either probability sampling or non-probability sampling to select respondents to collect the data for the study. There are certain conditions which should have to conduct probability sampling those conditions are: There should be complete list of subjects The size of the universe should be known All elements should have equal chance to get selected Recording in Social work ----------------------

Welcome to the Thematic Presentation on “Family Farming”. We the MSW II year student of School of Social Work Roshni Nilaya select this topic for thematic presentation because 2014 is The”International Year of Family Farming”. Through this presentation our focus is to inform about the family farming, importance of family farming, what is International Year of Family Farming, 2014, Objectives of family farming and so on. Family farming is the most common operational farming model in developing countries like India and thus of great importance in the India. Family farming, in all its diversity, is the predominant form of agriculture worldwide. Local and global food security depends on it. The majority of the Indian are depends on Agriculture and most of them are involved in family farm. It is passed down from one generation to another, and contributes to the socio-economic and environmental sustainability of rural areas. Some of the importance of Family farming is listed below:- ·

Welcome to the Thematic Presentation on “Family Farming”. We the MSW II year student of School of Social Work Roshni Nilaya select this topic for thematic presentation because 2014 is The”International Year of Family Farming”. Through this presentation our focus is to inform about the family farming, importance of family farming, what is International Year of Family Farming, 2014, Objectives of family farming and so on. 2014 was designated the International Year of Family Farming at the 66th session of the United Nations General Assembly, Led by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). It has the objective of   raising the profile of family farming   by focusing world attention on its role in alleviating hunger and poverty, providing food security and improving livelihoods, while protecting the environment and biodiversity.  The aim of IYFF is to raise the profile of family farming and smallholder farming by focusing world attention on its significant role in eradicating hunger and

Small family farms are the key to reducing poverty and improving global food security. Family farming includes all family-based agricultural activities, and it is linked to several areas of rural development. Family farming is a means of organizing agricultural, forestry, fisheries, pastoral and aquaculture production which is managed and operated by a family and predominantly reliant on family  labor , including both women’s and men’s. 
 
 Both in developing and developed countries, family farming is the predominant form of agriculture in the food production sector. 

 At national level, there are a number of factors that are key for a successful development of family farming, such as: agro-ecological conditions and territorial characteristics; policy environment; access to markets; access to land and natural resources; access to technology and extension services; access to finance; demographic, economic and socio-cultural conditions; availability of specialized education among others

Family farming is inextricably linked to national and global food security. Both in developing and developed countries, family farming is the predominant form of agriculture in the food production sector.  Family farming includes all family-based agricultural activities, and it is linked to several areas of rural development.  The concept of family farming covers various elements. From a sociological perspective, family farming is associated with family values, such as solidarity, continuity and commitment; in economic terms, family farming is identified with specific entrepreneurial skills, business ownership and management, choice and risk behaviour, resilience and individual achievement. And in social worker it is the term which helps to enhance the opportunity for the farmers. Family farming is often more than a professional occupation because it reflects a lifestyle based on beliefs and traditions about living and work.

Culture is a system of symbol or meaning for normative conduct standard having three distinct properties. It is transmitted, it is learned, and it is shared. The slum has a culture of its own and his culture is a way of life. Life of the slum is usually gregarious and largely centered in the immediate area where they found friends, shops, and possible credits. There is a little privacy more noise, sanitation problem. There is a great tolerance and deviant behavior, higher rate of delinquency and crime and lots of criminal activity committed against the “outside world”. Slum dweller often fail to utilize the agencies (Private or Public), that could be helpful for them. They are also giving more emphasis to ‘fate’ or ‘luck’. They feel that they have only little control over the forces affecting their lives. Unemployment, disguised employment, low wages are the rules in the slums. The saving amounts of slum dwellers are almost zero. The slums are unskilled, illiterate, and lack of basic f

Slums as described by social scientist are a by-product of modern era. With the beginning of industrialization, cities emerged comprising population of labor from rural part to urban part. In India, the emergence of slums started during the last two decades of this century because of fragmentation of land in rural areas and galloping growth in population have led to unwarranted unemployment, famine, social-class conflicts and caste tension have caused equally as well for the emerging of slum. Social Composition of slums The tribal who has been displaced by the establishment of huge factories have started living in slums. Some place slums act as a refugee for these displaced tribals and provided them seasonal employment. Once they get exposed to urban way of life they never go back. The maximum numbers of slums are from schedule caste and schedule tribe. They belong to lower caste of sweepers and scavengers landless agricultural laborers. The slums are migrated from one place to another
