Developments in farm management and farming systems research in India

摘要

About 43 years after India embarked on planned economic development, it is no longer an underdeveloped economy but a poor industrialized one. Agriculture still produces the lion's share of GNP, but this has fallen from over 50 percent before independence to about 30 percent. Industry, construction, power and mining now account for less than 30 percent, and in common with other industrialized countries, the share of the services sector has been rising steadily.
