Summary: This volume is No. 16 of the UNRISD studies on the "Green Revolution". The series consists of reports on a re search project, known as Global-2, carried out with the col laboration of the United Nations Development Programme. The project was established as a study of "the social and econo mic implications of the large-scale introduction of high yielding varieties of foodgrain". A complete list of titles published to date in this series can be found at the back of this volume. The report on India was written on the basis of seven studies undertaken in areas where there have been campaigns for the diffusion of high-yielding foodgrains: wheat in Western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan; rice in West Bengal and Madras; and both wheat and rice in the Punjab. Dr. Dasgupta has also used evaluations of HYV programmes by some of the Agro-Economic Research Centres, as well as the very extensive literature on the subject, to complete the comprehensive picture of India's "new agricultural strategy".
