East-West Contrast in Pakistan’s Agricultural Development

Chapter 2 in Growth and Inequality in Pakistan, 1972, pp 69-93 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Many of the recent writings on economic development emphasise the key role that agriculture must play in the development process. Yet success stories of development are few, and the agricultural bottleneck remains a difficult problem in most of the underdeveloped countries and areas with traditional peasant agriculture. Pakistan’s earlier agricultural stagnation and recent growth presents both a comparison and contrast with the situation in many other countries.
