Contract farming is a mode of agricultural practice which acts as a means of
organising the commercial agricultural production of both large scale and small
scale farmers. This type of farming has already been in existence in countries
that have liberalised marketing. This book does not merely elaborate on
socio-economic studies which led to the birth of contract farming rather its
purpose extends into the realm of providing advice-to existing contract farming
companies into manage their operations more efficiently, to companies starting
on such a venture to explore all possible loopholes and prerequisites, and to
lawmakers seeking to promote contract farming. Contents Chapter 1: Introduction
