Abstract

Indian Handloom Industry is the oldest industry and highly labour intensive which plays a
crucial role in the rural economy. Generally weaving is a family activity with each member contributing
in varying degree to the process involved in producing cloth Handloom weaving is a hereditary
occupation, and the weaving cannot be done by a single man, it requires collective work. The entire
work from pre-weaving process to weaving of the cloth is shared by different members of the family,
including women and children. The involvement of men, women and children varied from process to
process, but the final act of weaving is carried out mostly by the men bulk. There is no formal training
for the weavers. Andhra Pradesh has much economic importance and the fabrics are being exported to
various countries but the Primary Handloom Cooperative Societies in Andhra Pradesh are facing acute
management problems. A majority of them are struggling hard to survive. Competition of Mill or Power
loom products, Unfavorable climatic conditions, lack of finance and other management problems also
has enhanced the problems of cooperative societies. Hence an attempt is made by me to analyze the
production Problems of Primary Handloom Cooperative Societies in Andhra Pradesh.
