V. SPECIAL SKILLS

a. Computer Literacy: Fully conversant with PC Computers and state-of-the-art

database management and economic analysis software including Stata, GTAP,

SAS, SPSS, NLogit, and Eviews. Familiar with, and have used Geographical

Information Systems (GIS) software ArcView, ArcInfo, and ArcGIS.

b. Household Surveys: Long experience in household surveys and data analysis (both

cross-section and longitudinal panel data) for Bangladesh and India. In-depth

knowledge of collation, processing, management and analysis of district and country

level data. Led panel household surveys conducted from more than 1800 households

located in 42 villages in India and Bangladesh for the period 2009/10 to 2014/15.

Panel datasets have been disseminated through the VDSA website

(http://vdsa.icrisat.ac.in) as Open Access. More than 1,200 researchers and students

from about 250 universities and institutions located in 45 countries have been using

the VDSA databases.

c. Database Management: Led the development of the VDSA Knowledge Bank,

technically a Data Warehouse (http://vdsakb.icrisat.ac.in/),with online analytical

processing (OLAP) features. It is the first of its kind for management of rural

household survey data in the world. It provides ready-to-use summary reports on key

performance indicators (income, asset, copping pattern, rainfall pattern, productivity

and profitability, credit, etc.) of rural economy as well as customized reports for end-

users. The Knowledge Bank uses Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Business Intelligence

(MSBI) tools for its development. It is the single source repository of all household

survey data collected for 1975 to 2008 by ICRISAT, and from 42 villages in India

and Bangladesh (2009/10 to 2013/14) through the VDSA project. With this new

innovation, web-based dissemination of data is more efficient and users have been

benefiting through reduction in their pre-analysis data formatting time.

d. Expert in econometric analysis, use of multi-market models and Geographical

Information Systems (GIS) and rapid rural appraisal techniques.

e. Language Proficiency:

English : Fluent in reading, writing and speaking.

Bengali : Fluent in reading, writing and speaking.

Hindi : Limited ability to speak and read.

VI. HONOURS, DISTINCTIONS AND FELLOWSHIP

Winner of the Emerald Literati Network 2012 Awards for Excellence, in recognition of the paper published in the Journal of International Trade Law and

Policy in 2011. (Deb, U. and Amin MA. 2011. Impact of the Doha Round

Negotiation on Bangladesh Agriculture: An Analysis of the Revised Draft Modalities.

Journal of International Trade Law and Policy. 10 (2): 104 – 123).

The Agricultural Economics Research Association (India) awarded Dr R T Doshi Prize (2000) for the following paper: Deb U, Joshi PK, and Bantilan MCS. 1999.

Impact of modern cultivars on growth and relative variability in sorghum yields in

India. Agricultural Economics Research Review. 12 (2): 84-106.

http://vdsa.icrisat.ac.in/http://vdsakb.icrisat.ac.in/

9 | P a g e

The CGIAR Science Council’s Standing Panel on Impact Assessment (SPIA) identified two of my studies on impact assessment (one on spillover impacts of

sorghum research at ICRISAT, and another on impacts of research and dissemination

of ‘GIFT Tilapia’ by the WorldFish Center) as good examples of emerging ‘best

practice’ as being particularly meritorious in terms of quality of analysis and

presentation. The SPIA identified only six studies, out of 30 individual case studies

on impact assessments done by the CGIAR Centres during 2003-2005, for such

special recognition.
