Resumen
Descripción
Successful agricultural development requires not only the development of physical infrastructure such as irrigation, electrification, and roads but also the increased provision of key services such as credit, transport, agroprocessing, marketing, and the delivery of farm inputs. Agricultural growth also stimulates increased demands by rural people for consumer-oriented services, such as improved health and education, transport, communication, and retail and personal services. If these consumer services are not adequately provided, then the potential growth multipliers emanating from agricultural growth will not be fully realized by the regional economy.
