- Summary
- Study of economic implications of technological changes in agriculture (green revolution) in West Pakistan from 1948 to 1970 - analyses the impact of high yield rice and wheat grains, irrigation, chemical fertilisers and agricultural machinery, etc., on agricultural productivity and concludes that the main beneficiaries of price support policies are the larger landowners and that agricultural growth has failed in its function of creating much needed employment opportunities. Bibliography pp. 145 to 150.
