Synopsis

This book locates the malignant causes behind the factors leading to farmers' suicides in India. It argues that a combination of innovative managerial and economic policies need to be initiated to make farming profitable, while maintaining food production within the carrying capacity of soil, water, forests, and economic and social resources.
