Title Village Dynamics in South Asia
 
Creator ICRISAT, -
 
Subject Agriculture-Farming, Production, Technology, Economics
 
Description The voices of the poor are generally muted and
do not resonate in agricultural statistics and in
policy decision making because reliable and
timely data are not available on consequences
of change on the rural poor. Decisions made on
incomplete information may be quantitatively
accurate, but in terms of the dynamics of
the changes, they are fuzzy, anecdotal and
fragmented.
Reducing poverty is a dynamic process that
is driven by individuals, families, firms and
institutions within a changing technological,
institutional, socio-economic and policy
environment. The understanding of village-level
information and ground realities can act as an
important catalyst in accelerating development.
It provides a working knowledge of the rural
economy, which can point to ways in which the
development of rural livelihood pathways can be
achieved at a quicker pace.
