| 520 | _a"Green Revolution is by far the most important single post-independence economic phenomenon that has contributed to the trans formation of the rural peasantry into a dynamic agrarian entrepreneurial class. It broadly summarises the technological and institutional changes that have taken place and have affected the fortunes of those engaged in agricultural production. The apparent success of Indian model of green revolution has induced some African countries like Ghana, Tanzania and Zambia to replicate it, expecting it to produce similar results in terms of output. The relevant question is: Are these countries willing to accept all the implications of green revolution? Green Revolution in India has led to sweeping economic and social changes in the country side, thereby changing its political complexi on. A strategy of agricultural transformation based on intensive inputs and high-yielding varieties of seeds was bound to be biased in favour of big farmers and land-owners. Margi nal farmer would in the process be invitably pauperised. These side effects could of course be weighed against the overall increase in the output of foodgrains. Any decision that ignores these changes would however harm the long term stability and growth of the economy concerned. The issue concerning the initiation of long-term changes in the country-side can not be settled without due consideration of the overall distributional implications. This outstanding book will be of great use to teachers, researchers and students of econo mics, commerce, agriculture and to planners, administrators and personnel concerned with agricultural and rural development. | ||
