"Agricultural research systems all over the world are acclaimed for their\r\nsignificant contributions to food and nutritional security and poverty alleviation.\r\nThere is empirical evidence of agricultural growth induced by the Green Revolution\r\ntechnologies having benefited the rural and urban poor through reduction in food\r\nprices. Although the impact in terms of poverty reduction has multiplied over\r\nthe years and spread geographically, there is a need to accelerate these impacts\r\nin order to improve the livelihoods of the poorest of the poor and to achieve the\r\nMillennium Development Goals (MDGs).\r\nIndia is one of the success stories of the Green Revolution. The Indian\r\nexperience has convincingly proven that appropriate technologies, supported by\r\nfacilitating public policies and efficient institutions, can transform smallholder\r\nagriculture. Umpteen studies have revealed that these three major sources of\r\nagricultural growth are highly interactive and dynamic. They evolve in the\r\ncontextual realities of an agricultural sector and respond to internal and external\r\ndevelopmental changes. However, the question now arises as to how modern\r\ntechnologies and institutions interact in the era of privatization and globalization.\r\nThe ways and means of harmonizing national agricultural policies with international\r\nagreements on trade, exchange of resources, property rights, etc, should be\r\nevolved for accelerating the flow of technologies to millions of smallholders.\r\nResearch impacts are not uniform across different sub-sectors of agriculture\r\nowing to differences in the degree of market orientation, efficiency of input and\r\nservice delivery systems, dominance of smallholders, etc. Sector-specific\r\ninstitutional and policy constraints need to be understood and addressed in order\r\nto enhance the flow of technology to farmers and to realize large-scale impacts.\r\nSimilarly, greater attention should be paid to understanding institutional constraints\r\nto the dissemination and adoption of technologies promoting sustainable use of\r\nnatural resources. The same holds true for the technologies for livestock,\r\nhorticulture and agro-processing which are capital intensive.\r\nThe Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) and the International\r\nCrops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) have a long\r\ntradition of research partnership in agricultural science. Both accord high priority\r\nto tracking adoption of technologies by farmers, assessing their impacts and\r\nlearning from this experience. Social scientists from both the organizations have\r\nallocated considerable resources towards this work and brought out a number\r\nof publications. This volume is an addition to this series, wherein both macroand\r\nmicro-level studies pertaining to different sectors of Indian agriculture have\r\nbeen covered in detail, with evidence mostly stemming from the post-Green\r\nRevolution period."^^ .
