abstract: The monograph highlights the trend and pattern of agricultural growth in
three backward states- Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Odisha, in India. The
bottlenecks in physical infrastructure and service delivery are the major
stumbling blocks in rapid transformation of farm economy in these states.
In recent past, the economic growth has been faster as compared to
previous many years. However, the pace of growth is still slower to catch
up the other advanced states' economic growth in rural areas. The net
income earned from farming in these states are very disappointing, as the
predominantly smallholder farmers in the region have poor access to 3 Is-
Infrastructure, Institutional credit and Information. The obnoxious
combination of these forces the poor smallholders to face the climate
vagaries as well as market risks on their own, thus further pushing them
into the poverty trap. Therefore, multi-pronged strategies focusing skill
development of the farmers, improvement of rural infrastructure, and
innovation in delivery of different services like credit, extension, etc. are
urgently needed to uplift the economic status of the poor smallholders in
the region.
