$\huge\colorbox{gery}{Answer ⬇️}$

A four fold occupational classification is used: big farmers ,small farmers ,skilled workers and persons engaged in Business or salaried employment, and lastly, rural manual workers.The data strongly support the view that scheduled caste men who remain in villages are unable to move out of rural manual employment.

An Ashrama in Hinduism is one of four age-based life stages discussed in Indian texts of the ancient and medieval eras. The four ashramas are: Brahmacharya (student), Grihastha (householder), Vanaprastha (retired) and Sannyasa (renunciate). Under the Ashram system, the human lifespan was divided into four periods.
