Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of trade liberalization since the mid 1990s in India, commodity exchanges have been allowed to operate after a long ban of around three and half decades. In the new millennium, national level exchanges have been launched for futures trading, and they have witnessed initial successes in terms of volume and turnover. But, what has been the impact of futures trading on agricultural production and prices? Have futures markets been successful in playing their critical roles of price risk management and price discovery? Can futures markets help the various stakeholders in the agricultural value chain to hedge against the impending risks that will be posed with further agricultural trade liberalization, as India moves further towards WTO regime? Proper research to answer these critical questions has been lacking so far in the Indian context. Resultantly the literature on these aspects of futures trading has, so far, been conspicuous by its absence. The volume titled, Effects of FUTURES MARKETS on Agricultural Commodities , edited by eminent economist Dr. Madhoo Pavaskar, seeks to answer these critical questions, and attempts to bridge the gap existing in the literature. The volume is published by Takshashila Academia of Economic Research (TAER), an independent, non-partisan academic group for undertaking economic, environmental, and social research, set up by Financial Technologies (India) Limited (FTIL). The volume entails a collection of speeches and select papers presented at the seminar on Agro-Commodity Futures in India: Impact on Production and Prices, organized by erstwhile MCX Academia of Economic Research (now TAER). The contributors are leading economists, regulators, policy makers and stakeholders associated with futures markets. In its attempt to informing policy makers, stimulating research thinking, as well as to creating a general awareness of the various economic issues related to the agricultural futures markets, this book is the first of its type. It will be of interest to economists, scholars, academicians, regulators, policy makers, and various market functionaries alike.

Download or read book Commodity Derivatives Trading written by Madhoo Pavaskar and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the long and chequered history of commodity derivatives trading in this country, extending for more than century and a half, neither the lay nor the learned, including, surprisingly, most economists and even those involved in regulation of commodity derivatives exchanges, betray lack of knowledge on the theory, working, utility, and regulation of trading in commodity derivatives of diverse hues. It is against this background, the present book is aimed at teaching the commodity derivatives exchanges, their participants, the regulator s, and the students of commodity derivatives economics and managements, both the theory and regulation of commodity derivatives trading in all its aspects. For, a commodity economy like India must aim to develop strong global commodity derivatives markets in the country to promote swift growth in agriculture, industry, and international trade by strengthening competition and competitive efficiency to improve productivity, as also proficiency in marketing in all sectors of the economy. This book is a modest step towards achieving that aim and objective.

Download or read book Agricultural Value Chains in India written by Ashok Gulati and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides a clear holistic conceptual framework of CISS-F (competitiveness, inclusiveness, sustainability, scalability and access to finance) to analyse the efficiency of value chains of high value agricultural commodities in India. It is based on the understanding that agriculture is an integrated system that connects farming with logistics, processing and marketing. Farmer’s welfare being central to any agricultural policy makes it very pertinent to study how a value chain works and can be strengthened further to realize this policy goal. This book adds value to the existing research by studying the value chains end-to-end across a wide spectrum of agricultural commodities with the holistic lens of CISS-F. It is not enough that a value chain is competitive but not inclusive or it is competitive and inclusive but not sustainable. The issue of scalability is very critical to achieve macro gains in terms of greater farmer outreach and sectoral growth. The research undertaken here brings out some very useful insights for policymaking in terms of what needs to be done better to steer the agricultural value chains towards being more competitive, inclusive, sustainable and scalable. The value chain specific research findings help draw very nuanced policy recommendations as well as present a big picture of the future direction of policy making in agriculture.
