HOUSEHOLD NUTRITIONAL STATUS AND ITS ASSOCIATION WITH ILLNESS OF TWO SELECTED DISTRICTS IN BANGLADESH KHATUN, MST. AKHI Nutritional status is an important factor in determining the health status because it can describe a balance between the needs of the body to the intake of nutrients. Good nutrition is the basic component of good health. In this study, I analyze the probable relationship between dietary calorie intake and health status of population living in Narayanganj and Kurigram districts of Bangladesh. Poverty rate is the highest in Kurigram and lowest in Narayanganj. Secondary data has been used in this study. Descriptive analysis has been carried out to get idea about sociodemographic characteristics of the population which helps towards statistical analysis. The status of chronic illness and illness has been found out in the selected districts. Multiple binary logistic regression analysis has been used to predict the possibility of suffering from chronic illness and illness influenced by the selected independent variable. The independent variables are household size, gender, age, education, intake of carbohydrate, protein, oil & fats and vitamin & minerals. It was found from the study that calorie intake has significant contribution to the probability of suffering chronic illness and illness. In the poorer region of this study average duration of suffering chronic illness is higher than the others lower to lower calorie intake. It can be suggested that policy program to avail required calorie among the poor and make them health conscious should be undertaken to build an effective man power.

A STUDY ON FACTORS INFLUENCING THE ADOPTION OF MOBILE PHONES AMONG THE FARMERS IN BANGLADESH MD. KHAIRUZZAMAN This paper examines the elements impacting the selection of mobile phone innovation among Farmers in Bangladesh. Electronic administrations are one significant measure for rural advancement and mobile phones are the ruling cellular technology; consequently understanding the reception of this innovation is significant. The paper utilizes interpretive way of thinking examining selection factors by methods for study information, member perception and related examinations on rustic Bangladesh and innovation acknowledgment. In view of various acknowledgment models from the writing, an applied Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was created to break developed to analyze the arguments pertinent to a rural developing country setting. The most remarkable adjustment, contrasted with prior models, is that social impact assumes a greater job than innovation at beginning periods of appropriation. 'Techadministration advancement' and 'tech-administration qualities' are presented as outside variables which influence the social aims of a person by means of perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use. With the help of TAM, I will select some factors those have effect on mobile phone using behavior and develop some hypothesis to justify their relation.

PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS AND IDENTIFYING EXISTING MARKETING CHANNEL OF TOMATO IN BANGLADESH: A STUDY BASED ON SOME SELECTED AREAS OF JAMALPUR DISTRICT ANIS, ABU SHARIF The study was conducted to examine the profitability analysis and identifying existing marketing channel of tomato in some selected areas of Jamalpur district in Bangladesh. Besides, attempt had given to describe the socio-economic characteristics of the tomato farmers, and to estimate the costs and returns of tomato crop on sample farms in the study area, to study the existing marketing channel of tomato and marketing margin of intermediaries and to identify the constraints in production of tomato crop and to suggest measures to overcome them. Jamalpur districts was selected purposively for the study on the basis of extensive tomato production. A total of 105 tomato cultivators were randomly selected to conducting farm level survey with pre-tested questionnaire. Data were collected during 1 st November, 2018 to 31 March, 2019. After analysing the data, per hectare gross return, net return and gross margin were found to be Tk. 228076, Tk. 222452, and Tk. 216818. Tk. 135699, Tk. 124082 and Tk. 111872 and Tk. 111565, Tk. 102058 and Tk. 90367 for marginal, small and medium tomato farmers, respectively. Total cost of tomato production was calculated at Tk. 116511, Tk. 120394 and Tk. 126451 per hectare for marginal, small and medium tomato farmers, respectively. Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) were found 1.96, 1.85 and 1.72 for marginal, small and medium tomato farmers, respectively. A sample number of 20 traders were selected, categorized as petty traders, aratdars, wholesalers, and retailers. The process of tomato market passes by various marketing channels until it reache the final consumer or export. Such dealers took care of all market aspects such as storage, transport, finance, and risk taking. The average net margin (profit) of petty traders. aratdars, wholesalers, and retailers were 156 Tk., 42 Tk., 128 Tk. and 342 Tk. per 100 kg, which indicates that among the intermediaries net marketing margin was highest in retailers and lowest in Aratdars. Thus, the producers and various intermediaries losing their attention in commercial cultivation and trading. In the study area, lack of quality seed was the most severe problem among the farmers and diseases and pest infestation was the last problems of the farmers. Although, lack of quality seed was the first problem of the sample farmers, they strongly suggested about the credit facility which was the 1 st ranked suggestions of the farmers in the study area were poor and they have no fund to cultivate tomato.
