Download or read book Agricultural Policy in West Bengal written by Debashis Sarkar and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents an analysis of the development, progress and problem of West Bengal agriculture and the role of public action in address that problem. The analysis is based on a broad view of agricultural development on the WTO regime, focusing on constraints to meet the requirement of obligations. West Bengal's success in different policy periods since independence has been quite limited. Recent diagnoses of this failure of policy have concentrated on the counterproductive role of government regulation, and on the need for economic incentives to accelerate the growth of agriculture. The book argues that an assessment of West Bengal's failure to eliminate the basic problems has to go beyond this limited focus, and to take note of the role played in that failure by inadequate public involvement in the promotion of basic infrastructure. Even the fostering of fast and participatory agricultural growth requires some basic infrastructural change, which is not addressed by liberalization and economic incentives. Following on this, the book considers the scope for public action to address these problems and achieve a transformation of policy priorities.

Download or read book Rural Commercial Capital written by Barbara Harriss-White and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2008 with total page 1024 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural performance is influenced by agricultural commodity markets. However, the importance of these markets has largely been ignored by agricultural policymakers and mainstream economists. This pioneering study, covering both the pre- and the post-liberalization periods, and West Bengal's transformation from a seriously deficit to a surplus state, conceives of the post-harvest sector as a system of markets. It shows how, while West Bengal enjoyed the results of a reformed agrarian system, the market system remained unreformed until recently. The book sheds light on the role and importance of distribution and commodity markets in shaping and spreading the benefits of higher productivity across society. An original analysis of the regulation of markets by institutions of collective action and social identity, as well as by the state, the book discusses a regulatory policy that could be adopted by any government, irrespective of its ideology. Barbara Harriss-White's quarter-century of field work in West Bengal has yielded new insights into the political economy, where ethno-cultural networks and informal finance have led to a polarization of agro-commercial power on the one hand, and a proliferation of livelihoods for small traders in the post-harvest market system on the other. Challenging many of the claims of orthodox political economy, this well researched volume offers a new interpretation of rural development over three decades of communist rule.

This book was released on 2020-10-17 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how crop diversification strategies can help to ensure sustainable agricultural development across different land-size categories, with a focus on Malda District in West Bengal, India. Using Malda as the study area, a region with nearly 4 million people, the book assesses the extent, pattern, factors and future of crop diversification and its contribution to the development of agriculture in Malda and in India as a whole. The work presents data from 1995-2015 concerning changing cropping patterns at various land-size distributions, and analyzes the information over the twenty year period to understand the link between crop diversification and agricultural development, in order to combat major agricultural issues and make suitable policy recommendations at micro (rural) and macro (urban) levels of agricultural planning. The study is a unique contribution to the field of agricultural geography, and will be of use to students and researchers, as well as government organizations, city/community planners and agriculture managers.
