Hardcover. Zustand: New. 2nd Edition. The Present book is unique in that it seeks to blend the theory of the Production Economics with empirical analysis of exclusively Indian situations. The applications presented here are from research works relating to local issues of the irrigation sector of the southern States of India, particularly Tamil Nadu. The material presented, both theoretical and empirical have been extensively classroom tested over the past two decades. The book contains twelve chapters. Starting with the first chapter on Agricultural Production Process- Selected Agro-economics Procedures explaining the production situation that are analyzed in the book. The second chapter Mathematical Analysis of Production Relationships presents a concise summary of the basic production economics theory forming the basis of subsequent chapters. The concept of the production function that forms the fundamental tool of production economics analysis is reviewed and its conceptual extensions leading to various decision making situations are explored. The subsequent chapters extend the basic theoretical analysis with illustrated empirical applications. These chapters cover the analytical approach to economic optimum, decision making with no risk and uncertainty in agriculture, trend/growth specifications and measurement of inequality, technology, input use and factor shares, economic efficiency in agricultural production, yield gaps, and yield penalties and yield declines. The final two chapters extend the analytical framework from production function analysis to programming approaches and the techniques of project evaluation. The lucid presentation of theory mingled with applications would make this book an ideal one for the graduate and postgraduate students specializing in production economics.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 2nd Edition. Watershed development has been conceived as one of the important rural development programmes in India where the rainfed agriculture is characterised by low productivity degraded natural resources and widespread poverty. Recognising the importance of watershed development for their perceived ability to promote agriculture and rural development both Central and State Governments make huge investments on watershed development and management. As million of rupees are invested on watershed development it is essential that the programme have positive impact. It is in this context the Impact Assessment of Watershed Development and Management assumes importance. Difficulties in the assessment of Watershed Development impact stem from its multi faceted nature. Watershed development changes (at different spatial and temporal scales) and is assessed in terms of multiple objectives such as poverty alleviation resilience and soil and water resources conservation and human social development that reflect the needs and expectations of different stakeholders. Impact assessment estimates the effect of an intervention on its physical surroundings the people involved and/or the organizational context and refers to short term outputs of products medium term result and longer term consequences or outcomes and is a crucial component of the watershed development and management policy making. Impact assessment facilitates informed decision making processes of different stakeholders. The stakeholders range from local farmers community organizations governments to external development oriented organizations and researchers and policy makers. Assessment of the progress and changes effected by watershed development activities over a specified time period requires a systematic and continuous monitoring process. In addition an evaluation process permits identifications of broader positive and negative outcomes of watershed treatment activities and to reach conclusion about their overall effectiveness in reaching projected objectives. Impact assessment of watershed development can feedback into planning and prioritization process. The present volume is the outcome of a national seminar on Impact Assessment of Watershed Development Conceptual and Methodological Issues organised by Water Technology Centre Tamil Nadu Agricultural University Coimbatore. It contains valuable papers on different themes such as Theoretical and Empirical Issues in Watershed Impact Assessment Decision Support System for Watershed Development Planning and Evaluation and Experiences and case studies in relation to impact assessment of watershed development. The book attempts to provide a forum for discussing various issues in relation to impact assessment of watershed development. It is hoped that this effort of ours will enhance understanding of the issues involved and aid in proper policy framework. Also the book would be very much useful to the researchers scholars NGOs PIAs government officials donor agencies and policy makers and planners.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explains in depth the issues and challenges faced by rice farmers in India in relation to production and productivity, and the possible adaptation strategies to climate change. Based on five years of groundbreaking research on emerging trends in cultivation in major rice growing regions in India, it begins by describing production and yield trends across different rice growing regions. It then offers a comprehensive review of relevant literature and the quantification methodologies and approaches used to analyze the impact of climate change. The book also analyzes climate change impacts on rice productivity and production, applying field-tested quantification methods, such as the Just-Pope production function where time series and cross-section data are simultaneously used for all regions. The results are presented for five geographical regions of India - northern, eastern, western, central and southern - for better comparison and readability. The analysescover scenarios for both mid-century (2021-2050) and end-century (2071-2100), and in the context of climate change, they also incorporate both medium and high carbon emission scenarios. Thus the future rice production and productivity trends are clearly projected for making necessary interventions. Lastly, the book outlines the essentials of an enabling environment policy and discusses the institutional and policy options necessary to ensure sustainable rice production in India. It also makes the case for introducing appropriate and affordable adaptation strategies to support farmers in different rice-growing regions.The cost-benefit analysis of strategies presented in this book provides an invaluable tool for officials at agriculture departments planning up-scaling of agricultural productivity. The projections are also useful for policy makers and planners developing future investment plans to support rice production in their country. Overall, this book is of interest to a wide audience, including professionals and business enterprises dealing with rice, as well as to academic researchers and students.…
