This book looks at agricultural systems and rural economies in Asia
through the prism of alternative innovation systems, alternative
public policy and institutional changes. The massive shifts within
the agricultural economy in Asia, geared towards increasing
production, has had a direct effect on the livelihood of a large
mass of people in rural societies, causing financial and social
distress. This book explores a wide range of solutions, such as the
role of education, improving technical skills and human capital,
along with interactive learning in R&D, harnessing ICTs and
institutional innovations, to see how these problems can be
alleviated. The volume looks at how these methods can help
formulate alternative ways to build sustainable and inclusive
agricultural societies, ensure food security, sustainable growth
and agricultural productivity. This book, rich in theoretical and
empirical matter, will be useful for academics and researchers
interested in agricultural innovation, development studies and
agricultural economics. It will also be of interest to policymakers
and thinktanks working towards inclusive social development and
sustainability in Asia and the Indian subcontinent.
