"Agrarian Crisis: Challenges and the Way Ahead "

Abstract

Indian agriculture has undergone a slump in the post-reform era. The deceleration in the agricultural sector vis-à-vis the rapid growth experienced by the manufacturing and the services has widened the gap between the agriculture and the non-agriculture sector. This paper examines the crisis that Indian agriculture is currently going through and attempts to suggest a policy-approach that can help it in its revival.
