Co-operative finance and agro-industrial development in India - Delhi Capital Publishing House 1988 - 256 p.

This Book is a study in the role of co-operative finance vis-a-vis other sources in the promotion of agro industries in India during the Plan period.

Agro-industries modernize traditional agriculture and decentralise large-scale production in industry, and, as such, act as a bridge between the two major sectors of the economy.

A comparative assessment of the alternative sources of finance to agro industries, of different States in respect of these industries, and of the indivi dual agro-industries, is a remarkable feature of this work.

Although the study is addressed to the whole of the Indian economy, yet the focus is on Bihar, a State on whose economics not enough published litera ture exists to-day. The author makes significant a contribution to Indian Economics. The style is simple and lucid. The book should prove useful to a wide range of readers the college and university students general public.
