This volume compiles the works of top scholars who provided analyses and evidences from household-level surveys collected for many years in several parts of Asia and Africa. The most important finding presented in this book is that African agricultural development has evolved following the pathways of Asian agricultural development. The common pathways are borrowed technology from abroad and adaptive research in rice farming; secured property rights on natural resources; adoption of ICTs; investments in human capital, including training; and launching of the high-value agriculture. In both continents, agricultural development started in the crop sector, which had a strong tendency to induce the dynamic development of other sectors in rural areas. 2022-12-13T12:40:46Z 2022-12-13T12:40:46Z 2023 book ONIX_20221213_9789811955426_44 9789811955426 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/60189 eng Emerging-Economy State and International Policy Studies application/pdf n/a 978-981-19-5542-6.pdf https://link.springer.com/978-981-19-5542-6 Springer Nature Springer 10.1007/978-981-19-5542-6 10.1007/978-981-19-5542-6 6c6992af-b843-4f46-859c-f6e9998e40d5 9789811955426 Springer 387 Singapore open access
