Resumen
Descripción
Fostering more rapid rural development,
particularly raising the productivity and competitiveness,
and accelerating the growth of the agricultural and rural
non-farm sectors, and critical elements to achieving faster
overall economic growth, and hence, poverty reduction in
Maharashtra. This policy note focuses on examining the
constraints to promoting more rapid agricultural growth in
Maharashtra. It aims to: 1) review the recent status and
performance of the agricultural sector in the State,
focusing on selected key areas such as cotton, sugar, water,
and the rural non-farm sector; 2) examine the major policy
and regulatory impediments in these sub-sectors that hinder
their contribution to more rapid and sustained agricultural
growth and rural poverty alleviation; and 3) propose options
for improvement in these areas as well as identify areas
requiring further study. A second volume provides more
detailed discussion on the Government of India Sugar Policy
(Annex A), development schemes of the National Horticulture
Board (Annex B), and basic principles for supply chain
development and additional statistical tables.
