Sales Management management involves the selection and use of organisational rewards to direct the behaviour of sales people towards the attainment of organisational objectives.

Non compensation rewards:

Sometimes organisation choose other ways to rewards and recognise the excellence of their sales force other than cash benefits is known as non compensation rewards. 

Types:

(i) Opportunity for promotion 

(ii) Self accomplishment 

(iii) Recognition 

(iv) Company’s perks 

(v) Job Security

The driving factors which motivate a person to start a new business venture are sense of independence and personal growth.

Organizational rewards can be classified into two types: 

Compensation Rewards and Non-Compensation Rewards. 

(i) Compensation Rewards- 

These rewards are given to salespersons in return for acceptable performance or effort in accomplishment of assigned task. Compensation rewards can include both financial compensation, that is, compensation in terms of money or perks, and non-financial compensation like opportunities for growth and promotion, recognition of efforts etc. 

(ii) Non-compensation Rewards-

Non-compensation rewards are more general rewards and not given in return for certain targets met or goals achieved by the salespersons. These include factors related to the work-situation and well-being of each of the salespersons. Interesting and challenging jobs, a degree of control over own activities, adequate resources for completion of jobs, practicing a supportive sales management leadership style, etc. are some examples of non compensation rewards that can motivate employees. Also explain any two types of compensation and non-compensation rewards.

Apical and axillary meristems of plants is used for making virus-free plants. In a diseased plant, only this region is not infected by the virus as compared to the rest of the plant region. Hence, the scientists remove axillary and apical meristems of the diseased plant and grow it in vitro to obtain a disease-free and healthy plant. Virus-free plants of banana, sugarcane, and potato have been obtained using this method by scientists.

Biofortification is a process of breeding crops with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and fat content. This method is employed to improve public health. Breeding of crops with improved nutritional quality is undertaken to improve the content of proteins, oil, vitamins, minerals, and micro-nutrients in crops. It is also undertaken to upgrade the quality of oil and proteins. An example of this is a wheat variety known as Atlas 66, which has high protein content in comparison to the existing wheat. In addition, there are several other improved varieties of crop plants such as rice, carrots, spinach etc. which have more nutritious value and more nutrients than the existing varieties.

Plant breeding is the process in which two genetically dissimilar varieties are purposely crossed to produce a new hybrid variety. As a result, characteristics from both parents can be obtained in the hybrid plant variety. Thus, it involves the production of a new variety with the desired characteristics such as resistance to diseases, climatic adaptability, and better productivity. The various steps involved in plant breeding are as follows:

• Collection of genetic variability: Genetic variability from various wild relatives of the cultivated species are collected to maintain the genetic diversity of a species. The entire collection of the diverse alleles of a gene in a crop is called the germplasm collection.
•  Evaluation of germplasm and selection of parents: The germplasm collected is then evaluated for the desirable genes. The selected plants with the desired genes are then used as parents in plant breeding experiments and are multiplied by the process of hybridization.
•  Cross-hybridization between selected parents: The next step in plant breeding is to combine the desirable characters present in two different parents to produce hybrids. It is a tedious job as one has to ensure that the pollen grains collected from the male parent reach the stigma of the female parent.
•  Selection of superior hybrids: The progenies of the hybrids having the desired characteristics are selected through scientific evaluation. The selected progenies are then self-pollinated for several generations to ensure homozygosity.
• Testing, release, and commercialization of new cultivars: The selected progenies are evaluated for characters such as yield, resistance to diseases, performance, etc. by growing them in research fields for at least three growing seasons in different parts of the country. After thorough testing and evaluation, the selected varieties are given to the farmers for growing in fields for a large-scale production

Fishery is an industry which deals with catching, processing, and marketing of fishes and other aquatic animals that have a high economic value. Some commercially important aquatic animals are prawns crabs, oysters, lobsters, and octopus. Fisheries play an important role in the Indian economy. This is because a large part of the Indian population is dependent on fishes as a source of food, which is both cheap and high in animal protein. A Fishery is an employment generating industry especially for people staying in the coastal areas. Both fresh water fishes (such as Catla, Rohu, etc) and marine fishes (such as tuna, mackerel pomfret, etc.) are of high economic value.

Animal breeding is the method of mating closely related individuals. There are several methods employed in animals breeding, which can be classified into the following categories:
(a) Natural methods of breeding include inbreeding and out-breeding. Breeding between animals of the same breed is known as inbreeding, while breeding between animals of different breeds is known as out-breeding.
Outbreeding of animals is of three types:

•  Out-crossing: In this type of out-breeding, the mating of animals occurs within the same breed. Thus, they have no common ancestors up to the last 4-5 generations.
•  Cross-breeding: In this type of out-breeding, the mating occurs between different breeds of the same species, thereby producing a hybrid.
• Interspecific hybridization: In this type of out-breeding, the mating occurs between different species.

(b) Artificial methods of breeding include modern techniques of breeding. It involves controlled breeding experiments, which are of two types:

•  Artificial insemination: It is a process of introducing the semen (collected from the male) into the oviduct or the uterus of the female body by the breeder. This method of breeding helps the breeder overcome certain problems faced in abnormal mating.
•  Multiple ovulation embryo technology (MOET): It is a technique for cattle improvement in which super-ovulation is induced by a hormone injection. Then, fertilization is achieved by artificial insemination and early embryos are collected. Each of these embryos are then transplanted into the surrogate mother for further development of the embryo.

The best method to carry out animal breeding is the artificial method of breeding, which includes artificial insemination and MOET technology. These technologies are scientific in nature. They help overcome problems of normal mating and have a high success rate of crossing between mature males and females. Also, it ensures the production of hybrids with the desired qualities. This method is highly economical as a small amount of semen from the male can be used to inseminate several cattle.

A breed is a special variety of animals within a species. It is similar in most characters such as general appearance, size, configuration, and features with other members of the same species. Jersey and Brown Swiss are examples of foreign breeds of cattle. These two varieties of cattle have the ability to produce abundant quantities of milk. This milk is very nutritious with high protein content.​ Objectives of animal breeding

• To increase the yield of animals.
• To improve the desirable qualities of the animal produce.
•  To produce disease-resistant varieties of animals

Textile industry occupies a unique position in the Indian economy because: 

• It contributes 14% of industrial production. 
• It has generated employment to 35 million people directly which is the second largest next to agriculture. 
• It has contributed to 24.6% of foreign exchange earnings. 
• It contributes to 4% of GDP. 
• It is the only industry in Indian which is self-reliant and complete in the value chain i.e., from raw material to the highest value added products.

i. Aluminium smelting is the second important metallurgical industry of India. Because of its flexibility and good conductivity of electricity and heat. Aluminium is and universal accepted metal for a large number of industries. 

ii. Aluminium is gaining popularity as a substitute to steel , copper, zinc and lead in number of industries. 

iii. For the production of one tone of Aluminium approximately 6 tonnes of baxi and 18600 kwh of electricity are needed. Electricity alone snares 30 to 40 percent of the production cost. This indicates that location of the industry is influenced by the availability of bauxite and inexpensive electricity. 

iv. Jharkhand and Orissa share over 58 percent of bauxite production for India. 

v. There are 8 Aluminium plants in the country today. They are located in Orissa W. Bengal, Kerala, Uttar Pradesh, Chhatisgarh, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. These together produce about 620 thousand tones of Aluminium per annum.  

Among the sugar industries in India, majority of them are set up in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.

The economic strength of the country depends upon the development of manufacturing industries. 

Manufacturing industries give major boost to agriculture in the following ways. 

• Manufacturing industries not only help in modernising agriculture, but also reduces the dependence of people on agricultural income by providing jobs in secondary and tertiary sectors. 
• Agro industries boost agriculture by increasing its productivity. They depend on raw materials from agricultural sector. 
• The industries sell their products like irrigation pumps, fertilisers, insecticides, pesticides, machines and tools to the farmers. The manufacturing industries thus make production process efficient. 
• Industries boost agriculture by transporting the goods produced to various markets. 

• Water pollution is caused by the discharge of industrial effluents into the water bodies.(b) Thermal 
• pollution occurs when hot water from factories and thermal power plant is drained into rivers and ponds, before cooling. Aquatic life is effected by it. 
• Rainwater percolates into the soil carrying pollutants to the ground and leading to contamination of ground water. 
• The major industries causing water pollution are paper pulp, textile, chemical, tanneries, petroleum, refineries and electroplating industries give out dyes, detergent, acids, salts, heavy metals like lead, synthetic chemicals, plastics and rubber. Fly ash phospo-gypsum and iron and steel slags are the solid wastes discharged into the water.

Measures to control water pollution are: 

• Minimising the use of water by reusing or recycling it in two or more stages. 
• Harvesting of rainwater to meet water needs. 
• Treatment of industrial effluents and hot water before releasing them in rivers and ponds. 
• Overdrawing of ground water reserves by industries should be minimised. 

Treatment of industrial effluents can be done in the following ways:

• Primary treatment by mechanical means like screening, grinding, flocculation and sedimentation.
• Secondary treatment by biological process.
• Tertiary treatment by biological, chemical and physical processes. Recycling of water is also included in the tertiary treatment.
