An Analytical Study Of Satisfaction Level Of Rural Entrepreneurs Towards Government Initiatives

Abstract

This paper explores the satisfaction levels of rural entrepreneurs towards government initiatives aimed at promoting entrepreneurship. Through a detailed analysis of government schemes, the study investigates various factors that contribute to the entrepreneurial climate in rural India. Descriptive statistics reveal that most government initiatives are generally well-received, with high satisfaction levels observed across most categories. However, variability was noted in areas such as "Transportation Facilities" and "Establishing Rural Industrial Hubs," indicating a need for further improvements. The study employs ANOVA analysis to examine differences in satisfaction levels across various demographic groups, highlighting the importance of tailored approaches to enhance the effectiveness of government initiatives. Additionally, the Tukey HSD test identifies significant differences in satisfaction across specific initiatives, revealing that while initiatives like "Export Formalities" received the highest satisfaction, others, such as "Government Regulations and Procedures," showed lower satisfaction scores. The findings underscore the necessity for targeted improvements in certain initiatives to foster a more supportive environment for rural entrepreneurs. This research provides valuable insights for policymakers to refine existing strategies and better address the needs of rural entrepreneurs, ultimately enhancing the impact of government initiatives on rural economic development.
