I am working on areas like Development Economics (informal economy, micro-entrepreneurship, credit risk, technology adoption, gender and trade, women empowerment, poverty, etc.), Agricultural and Resource Economics (Production and efficiency, Organic agriculture, zero budget natural farming, medicinal crop, services demand in wetland), and Economics of Biofuels. My research works are applied in nature involving resurgence of handloom industry in North East India, spacing silk industry in the globalized context and development of women micro-entrepreneurship, economics of organic agriculture and biodiesel, and dynamics of trade-offs between climate friendly crops and food security.
Research collaborations with international organizations like South Asian Network for Development and Environmental Economics (SANDEE), Rutgers - The State University of New Jersey, USA, and Tomas Bata University in Zlin, Czech Republic are at various stages.
