Book Summary
This book addresses strategies for food security and sustainable agriculture in
developing economies. The book focuses primarily on India, a fast developing
economy, whose natural resource base comprising land and water supporting
agricultural production is not only under enormous stress, but also complex and
not amenable to a uniform strategy. It critically reviews issues which continue
to dominate the debate on water management for agricultural and food production.
The book examines the validity of the claim that large water resources projects
cause serious social and environmental damages using global and national
datasets. The authors examine claims that the future of Indian agriculture is in
rain-fed farming supported
