Sustainable Agriculture and Environment

This general approach is explored fairly extensively, drawing on empirical findings from different research findings from different parts of West Bengal and India. We outline in particular what can be learned from the experiences from other disciplines successful and unsuccessful ones and also from the varieties of experiences within India. Special attention is paid to the role of sustainable development in agriculture as well as economic expansions. The importance of agro-industries in bringing about major changes is another central area of investigation in this work. There is also considerable discussion of the views of Rabindranath Tagore on agricultural development, environment and society.
