This volume compiles the works of top scholars who provided analyses and evidences from household-level surveys collected for many years in several parts of Asia and Africa. The most important finding presented in this book is that African agricultural development has evolved following the pathways of Asian agricultural development. The common pathways are borrowed technology from abroad and adaptive research in rice farming; secured property rights on natural resources; adoption of ICTs; investments in human capital, including training; and launching of the high-value agriculture. In both continents, agricultural development started in the crop sector, which had a strong tendency to induce the dynamic development of other sectors in rural areas. 410 0$aEmerging-Economy State and International Policy Studies 606 $aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects 606 $aDevelopment economics 610 $aAgricultural development 610 $aRural development 610 $aGreen Revolution 610 $aSustainable agriculture 610 $aAgricultural technology 610 $aRice farming 610 $aKeijiro Otsuka Festschrift 615 0$aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 700 $aEstudillo$b Jonna P$01285815 701 $aKijima$b Yoko$01338929 701 $aSonobe$b Tetsushi$01338930 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910633998803321 996 $aAgricultural Development in Asia and Africa$93059223 997 $aUNINA
