Trajectories of rice-farming households in mainland Southeast Asia
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/73054
Abstract
The preceding chapter has demonstrated at the macro-level the importance of agricultural and economic growth for the significant reduction in rural poverty in MSEA that has occurred in recent decades. In this chapter we aim to identify and explain the major trends and trajectories of rice-farming households in the region within this macroeconomic…
