Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlook for India as a Market for Cotton by 1961 World War II, partition, and subsequent developments have caused substantial changes in the volume and pattern of Indian cotton pro duction, consumption, and imports. Even before the war, India was near the end of an important transition - from supplier of raw cotton for the mills of Lancashire to one of the world's largest producers of cotton textiles. Ivartime demands greatly accelerated this trend. Then partition transferred to Pakistan a large part of the Punjab one of India's most important cotton growing areas. The new Indian Republic's textile industry was left with a cotton supply far short of its requirements. As a result, India embarked on an ambitious cotton development program. Meanwhile, huge imports were needed to tide the industry over. The United States was the only country then in a position to supply the required quantities. Indian importers and mills found themselves handling large amounts of U. S. Cotton, with which they had had practically no previous experience. N ow, however, the cotton devel opment program - and timely rains - have increased India's produc tion of raw cotton to the point where imports can be limited to the quantity of long staples required for spinning yarns and not available from the domestic crop. Imports from the United States in the seasons of 1952 - 54 were at a more normal level, averaging about 137, 000 Indian bales (of 392 pounds net). During the 1954 - 55 season, they dropped to bales; for the first 6 months of the 1955 - 56 marketing year they were only about bales, despite the inclusion of cotton in the U. S. Foreign aid program for India in early 1955. Imports from British East Africa, India's principal supplier of long staple cotton, have been fairly steady at a relatively high level.

Download or read book Cotton Production in India Classic Reprint written by Henry W. Spielman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cotton Production in India Once Indian cotton had entered the World market in sizable quanti ties it maintained its popularity. Before the United States Civil War, England and China were the largest buyer of India cotton but at the end of that war Europe was the principal consumer. After the turn of the 'twentieth century, Japan began buying more and more Indian cotton and in the early 1930's was the largest buyer. In the early years of World War II, India was faced with a burden some surplus of cotton, which placed a strain on the Government as well as on the cotton trade. Steps were taken to relieve the surplus by restricting cotton acreage and encouraging food-grain production. Since India was short of food, this move helped the cotton industry and improved the food situation. Unfortunately with India's increasing population and a higher standard of living for many working people, food production continues below India's requirements. There appears to be a need to continue restrictions on cotton acreage indefinitely. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'One of the most powerful books in the social sciences ever written. ... A must-read' Thomas Piketty 'The twentieth century's most prophetic critic of capitalism' Prospect Karl Polanyi's landmark 1944 work is one of the earliest and most powerful critiques of unregulated markets. Tracing the history of capitalism from the great transformation of the industrial revolution onwards, he shows that there has been nothing 'natural' about the market state. Instead of reducing human relations and our environment to mere commodities, the economy must always be embedded in civil society. Describing the 'avalanche of social dislocation' of his time, Polanyi's hugely influential work is a passionate call to protect our common humanity. 'Polanyi's vision for an alternative economy re-embedded in politics and social relations offers a refreshing alternative' Guardian 'Polanyi exposes the myth of the free market' Joseph Stiglitz With a new introduction by Gareth Dale

Download or read book Transforming Food Systems for a Rising India written by Prabhu Pingali and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book examines the interactions between India’s economic development, agricultural production, and nutrition through the lens of a “Food Systems Approach (FSA).” The Indian growth story is a paradoxical one. Despite economic progress over the past two decades, regional inequality, food insecurity and malnutrition problems persist. Simultaneously, recent trends in obesity along with micro-nutrient deficiency portend to a future public health crisis. This book explores various challenges and opportunities to achieve a nutrition-secure future through diversified production systems, improved health and hygiene environment and greater individual capability to access a balanced diet contributing to an increase in overall productivity. The authors bring together the latest data and scientific evidence from the country to map out the current state of food systems and nutrition outcomes. They place India within the context of other developing country experiences and highlight India’s status as an outlier in terms of the persistence of high levels of stunting while following global trends in obesity. This book discusses the policy and institutional interventions needed for promoting a nutrition-sensitive food system and the multi-sectoral strategies needed for simultaneously addressing the triple burden of malnutrition in India.

Book excerpt: India today is a vibrant free-market democracy, a nation well on its way to overcoming decades of widespread poverty. The nation’s rise is one of the great international stories of the late twentieth century, and in India Unbound the acclaimed columnist Gurcharan Das offers a sweeping economic history of India from independence to the new millennium. Das shows how India’s policies after 1947 condemned the nation to a hobbled economy until 1991, when the government instituted sweeping reforms that paved the way for extraordinary growth. Das traces these developments and tells the stories of the major players from Nehru through today. As the former CEO of Proctor & Gamble India, Das offers a unique insider’s perspective and he deftly interweaves memoir with history, creating a book that is at once vigorously analytical and vividly written. Impassioned, erudite, and eminently readable, India Unbound is a must for anyone interested in the global economy and its future.
