Drawing on original research presented at the 3rd National Conference of the Agro Economic Research Network and studies supported by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, the volume brings together rich primary data from Agro-Economic Research Centres across diverse agro-ecological regions of the country.\u003cbr\u003eMoving beyond theory and secondary analysis, the book integrates farmer-level surveys, empirical assessments, and case studies to examine farmer well-being, agricultural trade,\u003cbr\u003echanging consumption patterns, pulses and oilseeds production, and innovations in farm mechanisation. A distinctive strength of the volume lies in its systematic evaluation of\u003cbr\u003emajor government schemes and policy interventions, offering grounded, data-driven insights into their effectiveness and future potential. Comprehensive in scope and practical in orientation, this book is an essential resource for policymakers, researchers, practitioners, and institutions engaged in advancing sustainable and inclusive agricultural growth in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Editors\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRamappa K.B. Professor \u0026amp; Head, ADRTC, Institute for Social\u003cbr\u003eand Economic Change, Bengaluru\u003cbr\u003eThomas Felix K. Assistant Professor, ADRTC, Institute for Social and Economic Change, Bengaluru\u003cbr\u003eVilas Jadhav Assistant Professor, ADRTC, Institute for Social and Economic Change, Bengaluru\u003cbr\u003eAkshata Nayak Assistant Professor, ADRTC, Institute for Social and Economic Change, Bengaluru\u003cbr\u003eT.M.
