Agricultural Growth, Productivity and Regional Change in IndiaChallenges of globalisation, liberalisation and food insecurity\nAuthor(s): Surendra Singh, Prem Chhetri\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9781138925175, 978-1138925175\nSynopsis\nAgriculture productivity, growth and regional change in post-colonial India from a spatial perspective are yet to be rigorously examined. In particular, the impacts of economic liberalisation, globalisation and deregulation are not being empirically investigated at a small-area level using advanced statistical and spatial techniques. Understanding the process of regional formation and the rapid transitioning of agricultural landscapes in the Post-Liberalisation phase is pivotal to developing and devising regional economic development strategies.\n\nThis book employs advanced methods to empirically examine the key characteristics and patterns of regional change in agricultural grow.
