Summary, etc. The idea of carrying out a survey of research done so far in the field of social sciences was first put forward by the late Dr. D.R. Gadgil, the first Chairman of the Council. In the very first meeting of the ICSSR, he empha sized the need to formulate priorities and significant programmes in pro moting social science research in the country and argued that this task would be greatly facilitated if a survey of all social science research conducted so far is quickly carried out. These proposals were accepted by the Council and the ICSSR Research Survey Scheme, 1970, was formulated.<br/><br/>Under this scheme, the entire area of social sciences was divided into seven major fields, viz., (1) economics, commerce and demography, (2) political science, including international relations, (3) public administration, (4) management, (5) sociology, social anthropology, social work and cri minology, (6) psychology and (7) economic, human and political geography. For each of these major fields, an Advisory Committee was appointed to plan and implement the programme. Each major field was also divided into a number of subfields, the total number of subfields numbering more than 125. The work of preparing the survey report in each subfield was entrusted to a social scientist selected by the Council on the recommendations of the Advisory Committee. By and large, the focus of the survey was on research carried out by Indians on Indian problems and each trend report was to be<br/><br/>accompanied by a selective bibliography. Subject to this consideration, each Advisory Committee was allowed to decide the content and format of the survey in keeping with the needs of the discipline concerned.<br/><br/>The work on the programme started early in 1970. The first survey reports were received in June 1970 while some of the last are yet to come. When about 8 or 10 reports in a major field were ready, a seminar was convened to discuss them and the authors of the research reports were requested to re vise and finalize them in the light of the discussions. It is these revised reports.<br/><br/>that were finally edited and sent to the press. It has been decided that all these survey reports should be published in a series of fairly uniform volumes. The research survey reports in econo mics are being published in seven volumes. The present volume is the third in the series and the first part of the two volumes on Agriculture.
