Item description from seller

First Green Revolution in Indian agriculture during 60’s and 70’s brought food self-sufficiency in Indian Economy. The present book focuses on the foodgrains marketing efficiency and discuses in details as how farmers (particularly marginal and small farmers in the eastern region march ahead of the phase of distress sale (i.e. being compelled to sell their produce immediately after harvest, sometimes crop even standing in the field) at a very nominal price to the phase of selling in the local market in the wholesale market.
