This book uses sound theoretical frameworks and econometric
techniques to rigorously analyze and explain the conditions of
sustainable growth in agriculture. It further investigates how
management of natural resources and technological advances can
enhance productivity and ensure sustainable growth in agriculture.
Optimal control theory, dynamic optimization problems and theory of
risk and uncertainty are extensively used to create theoretical
models for analyzing agricultural growth. The results demonstrate
that crop diversification, rainwater harvesting and the use of
organic fertilizers can ensure growth in agriculture from a dynamic
perspective. Further, they show how excessive depletion of ground
water, intensive farming and overuse of chemicals in connection
with the adoption of modern technology in agriculture have placed
tremendous strains on natural resources like land and water, and
have called into question the sustainability of growth in the
farming sector.
