Abstract
The aim of this study is to explore the interrelationship between agriculture growth, inequality and poverty in Pakistan. To this end, the study examines as to what extent the poor have benefited from growth while taking into account the magnitude of growth and the benefits of growth achieved by the poor from 1984–85 to 2004–05.The research concludes that the proportional reduction in poverty is an increasing function of the Pro-Poor Growth Index (PPGI) and Poverty Equivalent Growth Rate (PEGR) as proposed by Kakwani and Pernia (2000) and Kakwani and Son (2004). Results indicate that higher the PEGR, higher will be the poverty reduction.
