Download or read book Indian Agriculture after the Green Revolution written by Binoy Goswami and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a country plagued with chronic food shortage, the Green Revolution turned India into a food-grain self-sufficient nation within the decade of 1968-1978. By contrast, the decade of 1995-2005 witnessed a spate in suicides among farmers in many parts of the country. These tragic incidents were symptomatic of the severe stress and strain that the agriculture sector had meanwhile accumulated. The book recounts how the high achievements of the Green Revolution had overgrown to a state of this ‘agrarian crisis’. In the process, it also brings to fore the underlying resilience and innovativeness in the sector which enabled it not just to survive through the crisis but to evolve and revive out of it. The need of the hour is to create an environment that will enable the sector to acquire the robustness to contend with the challenges of lifting levels of farm income and coping with Climate Change. To this end, a multi-pronged intervention strategy has been suggested. Reviving public investment in irrigation, tuning agrarian institutions to the changed context, strengthening of market institution for better farm-market linkage and financial access of farmers, and preparing the ground for ushering in technological innovations should form the major components of this policy paradigm.
Download or read book Indian Agriculture written by Trinadh Nookathoti and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Population explosions have always pushed India into many deep-rooted socio-economic bottlenecks. India is home to one third of the globe’s poverty-ridden and hunger-prone population, despite the undoubted availability of and access to food grains. This study explores the causes of and solutions to the prevalence of hunger and malnutrition at the grassroots level. Although India’s spending on protecting its boundaries has increased massively, there does not seem to have been as much emphasis on protecting its citizens. There can be no doubt that food security involves the simultaneous growth in demand and supply of food grains. As such, the book analyses the supply-side background behind the accomplishment of food security. It explores the nature, prospects and challenges ahead for Indian agriculture. Food grain production can be enhanced on a par with increasing demand only when hurdles confronting agriculture are addressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the significant portion of the present book dwells upon the large amount of background secondary data on farmer suicides at the all-India, state, and district level and its analysis from the viewpoint of complexities of the issue of suicide by farmers, the central point of entire discussion carried out in the book depends on the victim’s household-level primary data. Thus, predominantly the book relies on the victim’s household primary data on farmer suicides cases reported from the two most affected districts of Maharashtra. These districts belong to the Marathwada (Usmanabad) and Vidarbha (Yavatmal) region of the state, and have ranked for last three decades as the most affected districts of farmer suicides in the country. The census survey-based discussion brings out a multi-stage ground level complexity faced by the suicide victim farmers. Reading of this book will help revealing the socio-economic, cultural, psychological and agrarian policy complexities that have been consistently pushing these farmers towards the suicide trap for more than last three decades.

Book excerpt: 'Gender and Governance in Rural Services' provides policy-relevant knowledge on strategies to improve agricultural and rural service delivery with a focus on providing more equitable access to these services, especially for women. It focuses India, Ethiopia, and Ghana, and focuses on two public services: agricultural extension, as an example of an agricultural service, and on drinking water, as an example of rural service that is not directly related to agriculture but is of high relevance for rural women. It provides empirical microlevel evidence on how different accountability mechanisms for agricultural advisory services and drinking water provision work in practice, and analyzes factors that influence the suitability of different governance reform strategies that aim at making service provision more gender responsive. It presents major findings from the quantitative and qualitative research conducted under the project in the three countries, which are analyzed in a qualitative way to identify major patterns of accountability routes in agricultural and rural service provision and to assess their gender dimension. The book is intended for use by a wide audience interested in agricultural and rural service provision, including researchers, members of the public administration, policy makers, and staff from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and international development agencies who are involved in the design and management of reform efforts, projects, and programs dealing with rural service provision.
