Description
Item Description:	"This study assesses India's agricultural performance post-Green Revolution -- a period capturing its recent agricultural diversification to high-value outputs. Using a growth accounting framework on a more complete set of agricultural outputs than past studies have used, we measure sectoral TFP [total factor productivity] growth since 1980 and evaluate how India's agricultural policies have affected that growth. Specifically, we examine the TFP-growth impact of public investments in national and international agricultural research, of irrigation infrastructure, and of public investments in transportation infrastructure and human capital development"--Introduction, page 1.
