This book provides a blueprint for the allocation of public
expenditures "in" and "for" agriculture at the dis-aggregated state
level and suggests a reorientation in favour of disadvantaged
regions where the marginal returns on additional investments would
be higher. It provides insights into the inter-linkages between
public expenditures, private investment, rural poverty, and
agriculture productivity from a regional perspective to reflect
upon spatial differences in the welfare effects of various
investments, subsidies, and policies. The book focuses on
agricultural growth and rural poverty reduction through public and
private investments, non-farm employment, and other pathways to the
formulation of appropriate policies at the dis-aggregated state
level. It presents new evidence based on advanced econometric tools
for analysing and understanding the relationship between public and
private investments in agriculture and input subsidies (fertilizer,
power, irrigation, and credit) together with their impacts at the
dis-aggregated state level. The book also deliberates on an income
based direct support system for farmers as an alternative to the
existing input price subsidy regime. Accordingly, the book offers
valuable insights not only for researchers working on poverty
alleviation, rural economy, and agricultural growth, but also for
policymakers.
