This book looks at agricultural systems and rural economies in Asia through the prism of alternative innovation systems, alternative public policy and institutional changes.

The massive shifts within the agricultural economy in Asia, geared towards increasing production, has had a direct effect on the livelihood of a large mass of people in rural societies, causing financial and social distress. This book explores a wide range of solutions, such as the role of education, improving technical skills and human capital, along with interactive learning in R&D, harnessing ICTs and institutional innovations, to see how these problems can be alleviated. The volume looks at how these methods can help formulate alternative ways to build sustainable and inclusive agricultural societies, ensure food security, sustainable growth and agricultural productivity.

It will also be of interest to policymakers and thinktanks working towards inclusive social development and sustainability in Asia and the Indian subcontinent.

I come from a Punjabi farming family, and in many ways Im a product of the Green Revolution. Growing up in India in the 1960s and 1970s, agriculture was a big part of my early life. I spent several years on a poultry farm near Jalandhar, every summer in a more remote village in Hoshiarpur and, less frequently, a few weeks on a farm near the foothills of Uttar Pradesh. In the evenings, we kids would wait impatiently for the radio talk on farming techniques magic seeds, newfangled fertilizers, deadly pesticides and other developments that seemed oddly exciting to farmers to end, so we could finally listen to songs and sports. When television came, the waiting became even harder.
