It provides insights into the inter-linkages between public expenditures, private investment, rural poverty, and agriculture productivity from a regional perspective to reflect upon spatial differences in the welfare effects of various investments, subsidies, and policies. The book focuses on agricultural growth and rural poverty reduction through public and private investments, non-farm employment, and other pathways to the formulation of appropriate policies at the dis-aggregated state level. It presents new evidence based on advanced econometric tools for analysing and understanding the relationship between public and private investments in agriculture and input subsidies (fertilizer, power, irrigation, and credit) together with their impacts at the dis-aggregated state level. The book also deliberates on an income based direct support system for farmers as an alternative to the existing input price subsidy regime. Accordingly, the book offers valuable insights not only for researchers working on poverty alleviation, rural economy, and agricultural growth, but also for policymakers. 410 0$aIndia Studies in Business and Economics,$x2198-0012 606 $aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aWelfare state 606 $aAgricultural Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W47000 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aPolitics of the Welfare State$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33050 615 0$aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aWelfare state. 615 14$aAgricultural Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aPolitics of the Welfare State. 676 $a338.10954 700 $aBathla$b Seema$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0900727 702 $aJoshi$b Pramod Kumar$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aKumar$b Anjani$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910409704203321 996 $aAgricultural Growth and Rural Poverty Reduction in India$92013093 997 $aUNINA
