Summary

Objectives

The goal is to analyze the comparison between agriculture and economic development of Nepal with Kautilya Arthashastra Analysis of the later researchers and publications. Singer (1979) has described about agriculture– industry linkages and interactions This linkage stresses that increasing agricultural productivity expands internal demand for intermediate and consumer goods produced by domestic industries and, in turn, helps to support the drive toward industrialization.
