\begin{abstract}
        


Balochistan Rural Support Programme (BRSP) is a non-governmental organization working in rural areas of Balochistan province since 1983. Its head office is situated in Quetta, Baluchistan, Pakistan, sub-office is located in Islamabad, and a number of district offices are located in various districts of Balochistan. It is clear that majority of the respondents 90 percent of the sample were male and 10 percent were females in district Mastung Balochistan. The respondents 86.66 percent had availed the loan facility only for once and that too for the first time. 11.66 percent had availed this facility twice and only 11.66 percent of them took loan three times. The respondents 40.00% were 25000, 16.66% were 40000.00, 20.00% were 50000.00, 13.33% were 60000.00 and 10.00% were above 80000.00 rupees amount loans. 30.00% were get for seed, 23.33% were Pesticide, 26.66% were Fertilizer and 16.66% were Others purposes.

strategy for poverty reduction is to promote the productive use of farm inputs. This can be done by creating opportunities for raising agricultural productivity among small and marginalized farmers. Microcredit is particularly relevant to increasing productivity of rural economy, especially agricultural productivity in such an environment where economic growth is occurring, microcredit also has the capacity to transmit the benefits of growth more rapidly and more equitably through the informal sector. It is well documented that for many small scale farmers, lack of access to financial services is a critical constraint for the establishment or expansion of viable agricultural enterprises. Microcredit may enable small and marginalized farmers to purchase the inputs they need to increase their productivity, as well as financing a range of activities adding value to agricultural output. However, much remains to be done, to integrate microcredit institutions fully into the mainstream of rural financial systems and for commercial banks to recognize their full potential \hyperref[b57]{(Nosiru et al. 2010)}.\par
Rural financial market facilities the economic growth and rural poverty reduction through smooth financial intermediation. Financial intermediary's help to mobilize funds, channel them from surplus units to the deficit units create money and smoother the payment system. The efficient provision of loans, deposits, payments, and insurance service encourages rural entrepreneurship and help to rural economy to grow. Presence of financial services helps to rural economy to grow and reduce the poverty. Access to working capital can substantially accelerate the adaptation of modern agricultural technologies and production and thereby improving the ability of the rural sector to meet then subsistence need of the poor. It also helps to produce the surplus in primary and intermediary products required for urban consumption, export, and avoid environmental degradation  {\ref (World Bank, 2003)}.\par
Access to finance is a crucial issue in the productivity of agriculture in Bangladesh. If the farmers in Bangladesh are categorized based on land ownership, then we will find that most of the farmers are either marginal farmer or land less farmers producing crop by taking land lease from the affluent people. So, sometimes it is extremely difficult for the marginal farmers to get access to credit as the credits are not collateral free. The lack of deposit facilities force households to rely on inefficient and costly alternatives. The lack of access to medium-and long-term finance inhibits investment by a majority of small and marginal agricultural households in Bangladesh. This inadequate fund of marginal farmers has negative impact on the agricultural productivity of the whole country. In addition capitalists groups are reluctant to invest on agriculture as return from investing is double/triple in other sectors compared to agriculture. Micro credit has been successful in reaching the rural poor with credit for self-employment, supporting women's empowerment and significantly contributing to poverty alleviation. Nevertheless, micro credit has only had a marginal impact in the agriculture sector as microfinance institutions (MFIs), to a great extent, limit their lending to those possessing less than half an acre of land (the functionally landless). Poor farmers' access to agricultural credit remains very limited. They are usually missed by regular credit facilities. As a result marginal and small farmers are frequently termed as "missing middle"  {\ref (Raman et al. 1995)}.\par
Micro Finance Institution loans are used for agricultural production, trading, processing and transport, resulting in an increase in the use of agricultural inputs and increased output of agricultural production. This leads to enhanced employment opportunities in these sectors for the wider community and reduction in the prices of such products due to increased supply. They also state that trading activities financed by MFIs can help to establish new marketing links and increase the income of traders, and this can lead to reduced migration due to increased employment opportunities and increased income \hyperref[b93]{(Zohir et al. 2004}).\par
The initiative primarily aimed at developing the socioeconomic condition of poor rural areas of Balochistan. Later in 1991, it was transformed into a company limited and a non-profit organization named as "Balochistan Rural Support Programme" under the new organizational and administrative structures. Prosperous Balochistan where people especially the poor and women are provided with equal livelihood opportunities are not socially and economically excluded. To harness potential of the rural poor to help themselves, assume control of local development and improve their standard of living. consumer finance companies can offer a wide range of financial products. In between stand financial Nongovernment Organizations (NGOs), self-help groups, small cooperatives and credit unions. Formal services such as microfinance cannot replace loans from friends, relatives, friends, and moneylenders but they do complement them and enable the liquidity constrained rural population to access a wider range of financial services. Microfinance emerged as a noble substitute for informal credit and is considered to be a powerful instrument for poverty alleviation among people who are economically active but financially constrained  {\ref (Murdoch et al. 2002)}.\par
In order to improve farmers' conditions, there is a need to improve the agricultural production of their farms. Increase in agricultural production will enhance the demand for inputs but the majority of farmers lack financial resources for adopting agricultural innovations. Rural credit in the form of loans, cash or commodity is the only alternative left for the farmers' improvement purpose. Different institutions are providing credit for agriculture. These institutions are commercial banks, provincial co-operative banks, other provincial cooperative societies, central co-operative banks, agricultural co-operative societies, Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited (ZTBL), Khushali Bank, governmental organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) like Aga Khan Rural Support Program(AKRSP), National Rural Support Program(NRSP) and Punjab Rural Support Program(PRSP) \hyperref[b31]{(Jaffar et al. 2006)}.\par
Microfinance (MF) has become a buzzword among the development practioners. The term 'microfinance' means providing very poor families with very small loans (microcredit) to help them engage in productive activities or develops their tiny businesses (The Microfinance Gateway, 2008). According to the Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP), microfinance is the supply of loans, savings and other basic financial services to the poor, including working capital loans, consumer credit, pensions, insurance and money transfer services. Similarly, \hyperref[b25]{Hossain (2002)} defines MF as, the practice of offering small, collateral free loans to members of cooperatives who otherwise would not have access to the capital necessary to begin small business or other income generating activities. The term 'microfinance' is often used in a much narrower sense, referring principally to microcredit delivered through NGOs for tiny informal business of micro-entrepreneurs  {\ref (Christen et al. 2003)}. 
\section[{Objectives}]{Objectives}\par
The general objective of this study was: 1. To investigate the impact of BRSP micro credit scheme on agricultural development. 2. To study the role of micro credit in increasing agricultural production in the study area.\par
3. To examine the appropriate utilization of micro credit.\par
II. 
\section[{Materials and Methods}]{Materials and Methods}\par
This chapter includes information regarding methods and techniques used to conduct this study. The chapter discusses the details about the study design and how it was carried out. The present research study was all the agricultural credit borrowers of district Mastung who received micro-credit from BRSP for agricultural purpose only. 
\section[{a) Population}]{a) Population}\par
Balochistan Rural Support Program (BRSP) is working in the Mastung district consists of three tehsils? Dasht ? Kardigap ? Mastung\par
The targeted population of this study consisted of the micro-credit borrowers of tehsils Mastung, Dasht and Kardigap who borrowed loan from BRSP for agricultural purpose from January 2010 to April 2014. There were total 60 agricultural credit borrowers in the above mentioned Tehsils, who borrowed loan from BRSP for their agricultural purpose in the above said period. The population of the study was homogenous as all of them borrowed loan from BRSP only for agriculture purpose. Majority of the population were having poor economic conditions. Population of the present study had also the similar characteristics of belonging to rural background, low level of education and agricultural occupation. 
\section[{b) Sample}]{b) Sample}\par
The present study aimed to be conducted in district Mustang. Therefore to get a representative sample, the researcher applied stratified simple random sampling technique to collect the data from Tehsil Mastung, Dasht and Kardigap. This technique was followed to ensure equal participation of all the strata of the population. 
\section[{c) Sample Size}]{c) Sample Size}\par
It was a survey study and stratified simple random sampling technique was considered suitable to make the sample size representative and for the better generalization of the sample results over the population. According to \hyperref[b21]{Gay (2010)} that the bigger is the population then smaller will be the sample. The population of the study was 60 respondents therefore the respondents were considered appropriate for representation of the sample. There were 20 microcredit borrowers in Tehsils Mustung who borrowed loan form BRSP for agricultural purpose. In Dasht from 20 respondents were selected in the sampling frame. While\par
The researcher used survey method to carry out this research study. Keeping in mind the sample size and scope of the present study the survey method was best to be used to collect data from the large pool of cases. 
\section[{e) Type of Study}]{e) Type of Study}\par
There are two types of studies qualitative and quantitative studies. The Present study is quantitative in nature. This study is conducted by using the quantitative methods and procedures. The study focused on investigating the core research question and verification of proposed hypothesis. As the quantitative research is based on specific to general approach, so this study also aimed to examine the specific objectives and then generalizing the results over the population through making inferences from the sample. Therefore survey was conducted to measure the impact of BRSP Microcredit scheme on the agricultural development. 
\section[{f) Tool for Data Collection}]{f) Tool for Data Collection}\par
A close ended structured questionnaire was developed to collect data from the respondents. 
\section[{g) Interview Questionnaire}]{g) Interview Questionnaire}\par
Close ended structured questionnaire is a quantitative tool of data collection, which was advocated by Emile Durkheim  {\ref (1858 -1917)}. It is mostly used in survey method to collect data from large number of cases. It is a positivist research method. It includes the low level of involvement of the researcher and high level of involvement of the respondents. A close ended questionnaire is a series of questions asked to individuals to obtain statistically useful information about a given topic. With proper formulation and responsibly administered, structured questionnaires become a useful tool to collect data by which statements can be made about specific groups or people or whole population. So a close ended structured questionnaire was developed for the data collection of the present study. The researcher conducted face to face interviews with each respondent to fill up the questionnaires. It increases not only the accuracy of given information but also assures the high response rate. 
\section[{h) Aspects Related to Contents}]{h) Aspects Related to Contents}\par
? The wording of questions was easy and to the point so that the respondent could easily understand the questions and answer them in a better way. ? Close ended questions were asked so that the respondents do not lose focus of the topic. ? Simple language was used so that respondents could understand and answer the questions to meet the objectives of the study. 
\section[{i) Aspects Related to Lay out}]{i) Aspects Related to Lay out}\par
The questionnaire was divided into following parts 1. Includes the general profile of the respondents 2. Measures agricultural development 3. Measures the economic impact of micro-credit on the borrowers 4. Includes collecting information regarding impact of micro-credit on living standard of the borrowers 5. Includes information about procedures and process of BRSP micro-credit program. 
\section[{j) Pre Testing and Validity of the Questionnaire}]{j) Pre Testing and Validity of the Questionnaire}\par
Pre testing is a method to check whether the tool for data collection is reliable and validate to meet the research's objectives. It is applied on the smaller unit of the sample. Prior to conducting the actual field work and data collection the instrument of data collection was tested to check the accuracy and how well the instrument is measuring the objectives of the research. The pre-testing was done on 05 respondents of the sample. General discussion were done with the respondents in pre testing phase to make the questionnaire more reliable and valid according the objectives of the study. Further minor changes were made after consultation with the supervisor, District Manager, BRSP and with seniors in the field of research under consideration. A large number of studies regarding the subject matter have been read by the researcher to construct the validated questionnaire. Through the information collected after pre-testing the questionnaire regarding times of getting loan, utilization of amount, methods adopted for crop production and agricultural production were modified in and finalized for the actual study and data collection. The district manager BRSP also helped in the modification of questionnaire and those suggestions were incorporated in finalizing the questionnaire. 
\section[{k) Data Collection and Field Experiences}]{k) Data Collection and Field Experiences}\par
The data was collected in one month. The researcher first contacted the District Manager, BRSP for the field work and data collection. Before starting the data collection in field; permission was taken from the District Manager, BRSP. He was also briefed regarding the research project. The District Manager appointed social organizers of each Tehsil for the assistance of researcher in the data collection. The researcher personally went to the each respondent and filled up the questionnaire through face to face interviews with them. In the first place the informed consent was taken from the respondents. Secondly they were briefed about the purpose and objective of the research. Thirdly they were given full choice not to answer any question. The researcher faced many issues during the data collection process. Firstly the population was quite scattered and study was aimed at the district level so it was quite hectic and time taking process. Secondly at times respondents were not available on the site so the researcher had to contact them again. Thirdly it was quite difficult to get information from the female respondents. They were quite hesitant and reluctant. researcher had to explain them the questions in detail. It was also observed that they were little bit unhappy due to low amount of loan offered. The inhabitants of the study area were belonging to the rural areas with low socioeconomic conditions. The majority of the people were involved in the agricultural activities. In many villages of the area women were participating in the agricultural activities.

Data was analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 17.0. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to examine the relationship between the dependent and independent variables. In the first place the impact of micro-credit on agricultural production, economic status and living standard of the borrowers was described by using graphs and frequency tables with their interpretation. Secondly Chi square test was applied to test the association among the variables and to make inferences form the sample. The first section of the analysis includes interpretation of the frequency tables and graphs. The second section includes the results and interpretation of the chi square test.

Analysis and interpretation of data are the most important step in scientific research. Without these steps generalization and prediction cannot be achieved which is the target of scientific research. Generalization and conclusion are drawn on the basis of characteristics and attitudes of the respondents. Table-4 it is clear that majority of the respondents 70.00 percent were married, 22 percent were single and 8 percent were widow/widower in district Mastung Balochistan . Table-6 shows that majority of the respondents 68.33 percent had agriculture as source of their family income followed by labour 15.00 percent, business 8.33 percent, private job 5.00 percent and government job 3.33 percent. Table-11 it is clear that majority of the respondents 40.00\% were 25000, 16.66\% were 40000.00, 20.00\% were 50000.00, 13.33\% were 60000.00 and 10.00\% were above 80000.00 rupees amount loans. shows that respondents were inquired about the procedure of getting loan in which majority of the respondents i.e. 56.66\% responded that it was easy to great extent. \hyperref[b33]{36}.66\% responded that it was easy to some extent and 6.66\% responded that it was say not at all.

Table-20 shows that 66.66\% respondents responded that the behavior of the BRSP staff was satisfactory to great extents. 26.66\% respondents said that the BRSP staff behavior was satisfactory to some extent and 6.66\% say not at all. Due to polite behavior of the staff it was easy for the respondents to negotiate and discuss with them regarding loan procedures.

It shows that the trend of returning amount was seasonally. 
\section[{w) Mode of Micro-credit Repayment}]{w) Mode of Micro-credit Repayment}\par
There are lots of micro-credit schemes running for improving the economic status of borrowers. Microcredit repayment is a good indicator to measure the economic condition of borrowers. Inferential analysis allows making broader statements about the relationships between data.

Table-25 shows that there was a significant relationship between the two variables (Chi square value = 15.07, df =4, p=.001which is < .05). As the level of significance for the calculated value is less than .05, so the alternative hypothesis H1 i.e. there is association between micro credit and agricultural development is accepted.

Chi square test was carried out to determine the association between micro credits as an independent variable on the seasonal income as a response variable.\par
Null hypothesis was assumed as Ho: There is no association between Micro Credit and improvement in the economic status of the borrowers. While alternative hypothesis was assumed as, H1: There is association between Micro Credit and improvement in the economic status of the borrowers. Table-26 shows that there was a significant relationship between the two variables (Chi square value =32.22, df =4, p=.000 which is < .05). As the level of significance for the calculated value is less than .05, so the alternative hypothesis H1 i.e. there is association between micro credit and economic status of the borrowers is accepted.\par
Hence the null Hypothesis Ho i.e. there is no association between micro Credit and Improvement in the economic status of the borrowers is rejected. Chi square test was carried out to verify the relationship between micro credit and living standard of the respondents in which micro credit was used as an independent variable and household living standard, food quality, health practices, and education expenditure as dependent variables.\par
The third Null hypothesis for the present study was assumed as Ho: There is no association between Micro Credit and improvement in the living standard of the borrowers. While alternative hypothesis was assumed as, H1: There is association between MC and improvement in the living standard of the borrowers. Chi square test was applied to test the above stated hypothesis and for checking the association between the two variables. The level of significance for the calculated was (?) = .05. Table-27 shows that there was a significant relationship between the two variables (Chi square value =28.96, df =4, p=000 which is < .05). As the level of significance for the calculated value is less than .05, so the alternative hypothesis H1 i.e. there is association between micro credit and living standard of the borrowers is accepted. Hence the null Hypothesis Ho i.e. there is no association between micro Credit and improvement in the living standard of the borrowers is rejected.\par
The above results show that the BRSP micro credit scheme had positive impact on agricultural development. It is clear from the results that the micro credit scheme significantly increased the agricultural production of the respondents and which substantively increased their seasonal income. Improvement in the economic status of the borrowers made substantial improvement in the living standard of the micro-credit borrowers.\par

\section[{Discussion}]{Discussion}\par
The main objective of the present study was to see the impact of micro-credit on agricultural development. It was assumed that micro-credit has positive impact on the agricultural development in district Mastung Balochistan.\par
In Bangladesh, formal financial institutions like government and private commercial banks, Stateowned agricultural or rural development bank ( for example, BRDP in Bangladesh), savings and loan cooperatives, microfinance banks, leasing, housing and consumer finance companies can offer a wide range of financial products. In between stand financial Nongovernment Organizations (NGOs), self-help groups, small cooperatives and credit unions. Formal services such as microfinance cannot replace loans from friends, relatives, friends, and moneylenders but they do complement them and enable the liquidity constrained rural population to access a wider range of financial services. Microfinance emerged as a noble substitute for informal credit and is considered to be a powerful instrument for poverty alleviation among people who are economically active but financially constrained  {\ref (Murdoch et al. 2002)}.\par
The general objective of the present study was the role of micro-credit on agricultural development in district Mastung Balochistan. The targeted population of the current study consisted of Tehsil Dasht, Kardigap and Mastung. There were total 60 agricultural credit borrowers in the above mentioned Thesils who borrowed loan from BRSP. A close ended structured questionnaire was formulated to collect data from the respondents. Data was collected through face to face interviews with the respondents. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Chi Square test was used to measure association of the variables in SPSS. The results of the present study can be summarized as:\par

\section[{Conclusion and Suggestions}]{Conclusion and Suggestions}\par
The core objective of the present research was to examine and assess the role of micro-credit on agricultural development. The study concluded that micro-credit play vital role in the development of agricultural sector. From the study it was concluded that microcredit have positive impact in the agriculture field, economic status, household living standards of the farmers.\par
Microcredit for agricultural purpose provides financial support to the farmers for enhancement of agricultural production which led them towards the increase in seasonal income also. The study concluded that agricultural loan has positive impact on the agriculture production therefore the respondents were tending towards getting the loan facility. Credit investments in the agriculture sector enhance the crop production and seasonal income. Majority of the respondents were belonging to low socio-economic status therefore greater part of the respondents got loan amount many times for agriculture purpose.\par
The study concluded that micro-credit has positive impact on the agricultural development but there is always need for improvement in any program. With reference to the results of the study and keeping in mind the field observations following recommendations have been made to make the micro-credit program more productive for the agricultural micro-credit borrowers.\par
? Amount of loan for agriculture purpose may be increased for making the agricultural field more productive for the credit borrowers. ? Modern facilities for agriculture processes ought to be given in the form of machinery at reasonable prices to make more production at economic rates. ? Common understanding about the BRSP'S objectives remains poor programme objectives should be discussed in community organization meetings frequently. ? Community organization leaders should be more active in solving the common community problems. ? Community organization leaders should be given more monetary incentives for managing community organizations. ? It was seen during the survey that loaness were not properly trained in the business against which the loan was sanctioned. ? It should be made compulsory for the MCOs to provide them guidance at their doorstep. ? BRSP should arrange a benevolent fund so that in case of any natural cal mill, if a person is unable to repay some of his instalments, his remaining instalments may be repaid from that fund. ? If a person is unable to repay his instalments because of sudden house hold needs, he should be given some relaxation period so that his feelings about BRSP. ? Agricultural loan facility may be expanded to the rural areas where credit facility is not available. ? Interest rate must be at the lowest level for making the scheme more productive and beneficial for the credit borrowers. ? There should be proper monitoring and evaluation of the respondents after getting loan.
