MBA Report on Agricultural Loans
MBA Report on Agricultural Loans
PREFACE
An employee when joins the organization is just a raw individual, who does not possess the desired level of skill and knowledge to produce the standard output. Also, the employees are required to be up to date according to the technological changes. To achieve these objectives some kind of training is 1
required. In other words the organization needs to maintain a viable and knowledgeable work force to meet the current and future challenges. For this training is the only medium/method/weapon by which organization can achieve the objectives. So training is a continuous process, which exist till the organization sustains. In this session I took training in THE CENTRAL COOPERATIVE BANK, in loan section of that bank in which I got the chance to know the procedure by which bank lends money to its members. Since it is a cooperative bank so it gives loan to its members only, hence an applicant has to become member of this bank before borrowing money from it. The project work about the survey is a small piece of research work in various aspects of the training. While carrying out I got opportunities to interact with employees at various levels and the people which enhanced my practical knowledge and experience in regard to the topic. In this report I have shown the loans provided by the bank and its recovery procedure .I also include current facts and figures related to the topic.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I present my sincere thanks to Mr. Parminder Singh (Branch Manager, Jalandhar) who allowed me to take training at CO-OPERATIVE BANK.

Marketing Management
17
The activities of a company associated with buying and selling a product or service. It includes advertising, selling and delivering products to people. People who work in marketing departments of companies try to get the attention of target audiences by using slogans, packaging design, celebrity endorsements and general media exposure. "We are going to demonstrate the advantages of net banking and mobile banking, as these concepts are relatively new to people living in smaller towns and cities," Bank can measure the result of a campaign through the sales that they generate and the customers that are added. There is a clear return on investment, which from a functional point of view gives the team a stronger voice.

Market Segmentation
Market Segmentation is defined as the process of splitting customers, or potential customers, in a market into different groups, or segments, within which the customers share a similar level of interest in the same or comparable sets of needs satisfied by a distinct marketing proposition; it is also explained as a marketing technique that targets a group of customers with specific characteristics, i.e. a particular group that has its own distinct customer profile and buyer characteristics so that for marketing purposes, it can be targeted separately from other segments of the market. Market Segmentation can be done on the basis of the location (Geographic Segmentation); on the basis of age, income, gender and other measurable factors (Demographic Segmentation); on the basis of lifestyle, likes, dislikes, taste and preferences (Psychological Segmentation); and according to the history, loyalty and responsiveness (Behavioral Segmentation). Philip Kotler mentioned five criteria for an effective segmentation which states that Segmentation should be: -
1. Measurable: - it should be possible to determine the values of the variable used for the
Segmentation.
2. Relevant: - it should justify the expected profits and the growth potential. 3. Accessible: - the target customers must be reachable and servable for the organization.
18
4. Distinguishable: - the target audiences must be diverse and able to show different reactions to
different marketing mix.
5. Feasible: - the firm must have an ability to draw an effective marketing program for its customers.
Positioning Strategy
Positioning is the act of designing the companys offering and image to occupy a distinctive place in the target markets mind. Positioning starts with a product. A piece of merchandise, a service, a company, an institution, or even a person. But positioning is not what you do to a product. Positioning is what you do the mind of the prospect. That is, you position the product in the mind of prospect. A companys differentiating and positioning strategy must change as the product, market, and competitors change over time. Once the company has developed a clear positioning strategy, it must communicate that positioning effectively.
Target Marketing
Market Specialization is a business term meaning the market segment to which a particular good or service is marketed. It is mainly defined by age, gender, geography, socio-economic grouping, or any other combination of demographics. It is generally studied and mapped by the organization through list and reports containing demographic information that may have an effect on the marketing of key products / services. A product focusing on a specific target market contrasts sharply with one, following the market strategy of mass marketing. Targeting can be done by the firms by adopting a logical and systematic methodology / Steps. Which are as follows: STEP 1: - Identify the potential buyers: - Through proper market research and market segmentation (it is the process of pulling apart the entire market as a whole and separating it into manageable disparate units based on various demographic, political, economic and social factors; it can also be customer / product / competition related segmentation). STEP 2: - Select the target audiences: - The factors that influence Targeting are the Internal and External Environment. Internal environment includes the mission, vision, values and objectives of the firm; whereas; External factors are the social, cultural, economic, global, demographic, natural, task,
19
technological, political and legal environment. Through appropriately compiling the customers profile to decide the 4 Ps Product, Price, Place and Promotion and obtain the demographic, psychological, geographic and behavioral information of the buyer. Targeting is deciding the potential buyers, products to be offered and appropriately positioning each product to the segment.
STEP 3: - Proper positioning of the Product: - After developing an appropriate segmentation and target strategy; positioning strategy can be worked out effectively. Positioning enables the firm to create a positive image, gain competitive advantage and place the brand in the customers mind to enhance their goodwill and become the most preferred brand. Positioning can be in the form of product, price, promotion, service, distribution channel, image, people, advertising, publicity, public relation or selling differentiation.

LIMITATIONS
50
LIMITATIONS:1) The rate of interest may vary according to market environment. 2) These figures are according to publish in annual report and according to employees of central cooperative bank. 3) The report is according to my perception only and cant be taken as final decision. 4) This study only relates to one organization, so conclusions drawn may not be finding its utility in all the other banks. 5) Even the employees of the bank hesitated to give the complete & accurate data There are always present some limitations under which researcher has to work.Here following are some limitations under researcher had to work: SAMPLE SIZE The sample size surveyed was limited over 100 respondents which not may befully representative of the universe. A large sample size could not be taken due totime & cost constraints. NON - COVERAGE OF CERTAIN ASPECTS There is wide range of perimeters affecting consumer behavior but only a fewquestions relating to those determinants have been endorsed in schedule. TIME CONSTRAINT We had limited time for conducting this survey report. In this short period of allthe respondents had to be personally contacted for the purpose of survey & thentheir responses had to be analysed . So, some shortfalls may be present. LIMITATIONS OF SAMPLING TECHNIQUES Limitations & biasness of convenience & judgment sampling used in the presentstudy to some extent. MONEY Available with the researcher also imposed a limitation on the comprehensive of this research 51

CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
54
The study concludes that Cooperative Bank, which was established for mainly for the service of rural sector, still is not on the line to its goal. It is lacking at various elements, particularly at the branch levels, which reveals the edge of other public and private sector banks over the Cooperative bank, the lines at which the bank is lacking behind. Indis ciplineand lack of commitment in these banks make peoples trusts in the cooperative sector acasualty.Some of the co-operative banks are quite forward looking and have developed sufficient core competencies to challenge state and private sector banks. But there is shortage of staff in this bank and the traditional manual banking which is affecting the business and customer services. People are still unaware of the services provided by the Cooperative Banks due to lack of advertisement. There is a need to analyze and pick up early warning signals. A change is needed today in the cooperative banks which is built on confidence in human capital - the most important of all resources - in commitment, creativity and innovation brought about by proactive management, membership and employees. The ability to capture knowledge and wisdom gives cooperative banks their competitive advantage. A Prerequisite is that participants from all parts of a cooperative organization know and understand its purpose, core values and visions. In this way, by keeping in mind the certain shortcomings, appropriate measures to overcome them should be adopted. So that the real purpose of the Cooperative bank must be realized with a competitive advantage and the gap between the customer perception of the Cooperative Bank and the other private and public sector bank, can be reduced
