Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) have emerged as a critical institutional mechanism to enhance the income and bargaining power of small and marginal farmers in emerging economies. However, many FPOs face challenges related to financial sustainability, governance, and strategic management. This study examines the financial performance, governance structure, and operational sustainability of a women-led FPO—Tappal Samriddhi Mahila Kisan Producer Company Limited—in Aligarh district of Uttar Pradesh, India. Using financial statement analysis, bank transaction analysis, and stakeholder interviews, the study identifies significant gaps in working capital management, cost efficiency, governance capacity, and strategic prioritization. The FPO has strong liquidity and equity structure, aspirational and resilient women leadership, and robust technical support from Transforming Rural India Foundation. Currently, the FPO faces operational losses due to weak cost controls and lack of strategic focus. The findings highlight the importance of structured financial governance, business prioritization, and institutional capacity building for sustainable growth of FPOs. The study contributes to management literature by providing empirical insights into internal governance and financial sustainability challenges in grassroots agricultural enterprises led by women farmers in emerging markets.

Folk festivals continue to function as vital cultural institutions that sustain collective memory, social cohesion, and symbolic authority in contemporary societies. In the Malabar region of Kerala, Nērcca represents one of the most enduring shrine-centred folk traditions, integrating devotion, ritual performance, economy, and social interaction. This paper examines the contemporary relevance of Nērcca through an in-depth ethnographic analysis of Kondotty Nērcca. Drawing upon fieldwork, oral narratives, and ritual practices documented in the author’s doctoral research, the study argues that Nērcca must be understood not merely as a religious observance but as a dynamic social institution. By reinterpreting its multiple functions in the present social order, the paper demonstrates how folk festivals continue to negotiate identity, authority, cultural continuity, and social integration amid rapid socio-economic transformations.

Trade unions are independent workers organizations recognized by the Kenyan constitution to advance the interests of the workers. This recognition empowers them to work within the confines of the law to ensure workers enjoy fundamental labour rights and freedoms and accompanying employment benefits such as higher wages, job security, and likeable working environs, improvement of their lot, improved welfares and the right to partake freely into workplace matters. To achieve these goals, trade unions require a conducive political as well as socio-economic environment devoid of any hindrances. This paper therefore, examines the political environment that trade unions have operated in, and continue to operate in the country from the periods before independence, after independence and also after the proclamation of the current constitution in 2010. It assesses also the role of politics in the management of the unions in the country. Over the years, considerable developments have been made towards the progression of trade unions in Kenya. This is evident in the increased number of trade unions in the country, workers awareness to their labour rights as well as the increased democratic space. These developments notwithstanding, we recommend that government creates a favourable political environment for trade unions, desist from interference and infiltrating trade unions, adheres to the rule of law, create law enforcement mechanisms for labour laws and equally union leadership to stop any dalliance with politicians. Indeed government functionaries have interfered, infiltrated and politicised trade union activities. This has hampered what would otherwise be a cordial and well managed sector. The government has a duty to ensure that there is a good operating environment for the trade unions devoid of any political maneuvers for them to be able to execute their mandate well as expected by the workers. It must also view trade unions as key partners in labour relation matters and not adversaries. Based on this, we conclude that, the political environment under which the unions are operating is still not conducive enough as it should be for the trade unions to fully flourish.
