Abstract: Abstract Looking at the economic as well as agricultural performance of India, China and Israel, some key questions are raised: What innovations in production technologies made these outcomes possible? What sorts of incentives were provided to farmers, and how did they impact farmer’s choices with regard to agriculture? What role did the institutions of land, water, farm machinery and agricultural extension play? What lessons could their story and experiences of agricultural growth provide for the rest of the developing world? This chapter presents a comparative summary of all the major innovations in production technologies, incentives and institutions in Indian, Chinese and Israeli agriculture. The overall goal is to see how these innovations have significantly impacted the agricultural productivity and production over past decades in these countries, which can provide policy insights for the continuing reform processes in the three countries as well as for other developing and transition economies, where it is a challenge to produce enough food, feed and fibre for their populations.
