Impact of rural entrepreneurship on migration- A case study of Dahanu (Maharashtra), India
Summary. Rural entrepreneurship in Maharashtra's Dahanu district reduces seasonal migration and improves educational outcomes. The study identifies agriculture-based and non-agriculture ventures—including warli painting, poultry farming, handicrafts, and food processing—that can operate commercially. Entrepreneurs who developed these ventures successfully stayed in their communities and kept children in school, demonstrating that rural entrepreneurship mitigates migration-driven social challenges.
