Indian states during 1980/81–2004/05—a period of economic liberalisation and accelerated
economic growth, and also analyses the factors that enhance economic growth and lead states
towards an identical steady state. In particular, we examine the role of agricultural conditions
in this process. Results indicate absolute divergence in income levels across states. However,
after controlling for structural characteristics of states there is a strong tendency of convergence
among states. Physical infrastructure and human capital are found to enhance economic
growth, but alone are not sufficient for convergence. For convergence, the investment in
physical infrastructure and human resources should be accompanied by a reduction in
employment pressure on agriculture by improving labour market linkages of agriculture with
non-agricultural sectors, and by promoting growth-enhancing labour-intensive agricultural
technologies","2011","published",,"Journal of International Development","23",,"John Wiley & Sons",,"119-131",,,,,,,,,,,"TRUE",,"0954-1748",,,,,,"","http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/jid.1606","http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&q=%22Agriculture%2C+economic+growth+and+Regional+disparities+in+India%22&as_sdt=0%2C5&as_ylo=&as_vis=0","author",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
