Answer:

A cottage industry is a genetic term for any type of home based production business.

examples: pastries, jams, jellies, knitting, crocheting.

A small scale business is a business that involves less capital investments, less number of labour and fewer machinery to operate. They also utilize local raw materials

eg:clay for pottery, wood for carving, straw for baskets
