| description |
This book contributes to the debate
about the role of agriculture in poverty reduction by
addressing three sets of questions: Does investing in
agriculture enhance/harm overall economic growth, and if so,
under what conditions? Do poor people tend to participate
more/less in growth in agriculture than in growth in other
sectors, and if so, when? If a focus on agriculture would
tend to yield larger participation by the poor, but slower
overall growth, which strategy would tend to have the
largest payoff in terms of poverty reduction, and under
which conditions? |
