Entrepreneurship is considered as tactical development interference to speed up the process of economic development. The promotion of entrepreneurship is directly related to the socio-economic development of the poor tribal population of the society. Scheduled tribes constitute the poorest section of population in rural areas of India. They generally depend on forest and agriculture for livelihood. A research study was undertaken in the tribal dominated Mayurbhanj district of Odisha in India .The tribal people in the study area were involved in different agriculture based entrepreneurial activities. In the district cultivation of sabai grass (Eulaliopsis binata) and its processing of consumer goods remain a good enterprise for the tribal entrepreneurs.

It is revealed from the study that majority of the respondents belong to low innovativeness, low farm decision making ability, medium level of knowledge, medium risk taking ability, medium level of self confidence, medium level of management orientation, high leadership ability, medium achievement motivation category.
