This Open Access book explores the multifaceted nature of
agricultural and rural development in Asia and examines the extent
to which the Asian experience is being replicated in contemporary
Africa. This volume compiles the works of top scholars who provided
analyses and evidences from household-level surveys collected for
many years in several parts of Asia and Africa. The most important
finding presented in this book is that African agricultural
development has evolved following the pathways of Asian
agricultural development. The common pathways are borrowed
technology from abroad and adaptive research in rice farming;
secured property rights on natural resources; adoption of ICTs;
investments in human capital, including training; and launching of
the high-value agriculture. In both continents, agricultural
development started in the crop sector, which had a strong tendency
to induce the dynamic development of other sectors in rural areas.
