Description

Understanding the transition from home consumption to commercial farming is a major challenge in global economic development. This book by Routledge examines the difficulties subsistence farmers face when attempting to move into the marketplace. With subsistence farms occupying 40 percent of the world's cultivated land and supporting half of the human population, the need for organized information is urgent. Currently, much of the data regarding these farms and the programs designed to increase their output are scattered across various sources. This text provides a unique overview of these specific difficulties and their direct significance to the broader scope of economic development. It serves as an essential resource for those studying how to help farmers increase production for sale, moving beyond simple survival to active participation in the market economy.
