xReviews the diverse arguments of the potential role of agriculture within the realm of development theory
Analyses periphery countries in the 19th and 20th centuries to challenge the notion that agriculture played a negligible role in promoting economic development
Assesses the possible contribution of the agricultural sector to economic growth by analysing changes in agricultural production and productivity, and its relationship - per capita - to income levels
Indicates the existence of positive relationships between agriculture and economic growth, by means of inter-sectoral links, technological and organizational improvements and simply the exploitation of comparative advantages in the rural setting
