Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
The book is a comprehensive analysis of the pervasive nature of agrarian crisis in India. Farmers' suicides and rural distress have emerged as symptomatic of deeper maladies that afflict Indian agriculture and the failure of a public support system. Bringing together both macro and micro dimensions, this study provides a critical overview of emergent agrarian conditions across India, with as well as in depth case studies of five states - Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala,
Maharashtra and Punjab.
Long description:
Over the past decade, there has been pervasive crisis in Indian agriculture and farmer suicides here emerged as symptoms of deep-seated maladies that have engulfed Indian agriculture. The book analyses various dimensions of the crises. The macro-dimensions include detailed analysis of structural, institutional, and policy changes; trends in capital formation in agriculture; farmers' indebtedness; and the state of agricultural research and extension. This overview is accompanied by
case studies of five states that experienced high and unusual incidence of farmers' suicides. The state- level case studies not only bring out the diversity of conditions but also the common thread of failure of public support systems to agriculture.
