International Agricultural Development

 

Agriculture plays an important role in enhancing economic development, food security and poverty reduction in developing countries. Creating policies for effective food supply, agricultural development, and rural area development requires a thorough understanding of historical, cultural, institutional, social, economic and environmental issues underlying the agriculture and rural livelihoods of developing countries.
Provided with this perception, we explore the current situations and challenges in agriculture and rural livelihoods as well as the behavior of relevant stakeholders in developing countries. Students are required to proceed with their research from an economic perspective, paying due attention to the fact that poverty, food insecurity, economic performance, resource and energy issues, and environmental problems are all interrelated in a society.
