Agricultural Workers - the Foundation Pillars of Growth in Agriculture

Abstract

“If India wants to grow in terms of economy; then instead of developing the industrial sector India first needs to develop its root in rural sector – Mahatma Gandhi.” Right from the Pre history time to today at present we have noticed several changes in agricultural sector, many policies have been implemented and many are in the process of implementation. Every new government comes up with its new policy & at the end the result is -- all what we come across our daily newspapers. It is truly said that if politics is all about who gets what, when & how then state becomes the executive agency for the same. In the context of the above statement my paper deals with the relation of state and agriculture sector from the pre history time to present. It also deals with the policies and programs implemented by the state till date in favor of agricultural workers and agricultural sector. To be brief on the counterpart, the paper also talks about the limitation of the policies and programs of state and my understanding on why some programs reached to the stress of failure. Lastly, with some data and figures the paper would express the cause of migration and transformation of agricultural workers. On the whole the paper discusses the overall agricultural sector of India along with its past success & failure to present status of policies. It suggests what possible policies and implementation state can do to enhance this sector. Majorly what public administration can contribute to this sector?
