Dominant development theories of the time emphasized the importance of industrialisation as the path Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691 for development, which became synonymous with idea of structural transformation. Accordingly, an economy passes through a number of stages, where agriUnderstanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691

When trade and economic activities flourish across the economy, sen ice sector grows in order to faUNDERSTANDING AGRICULTURE-INDUSTRY INTER-LINKAGES FOR AGRARIAN DEVELOPMENT: EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM INDIASahil MehraPhD. Research Scholar, South Asian Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691 development literature the role of agrarian sector has long been debated. Any economy that embarks on the growth trajectory depends upon its agrarian sector for maintaining a certain socio-economic level for its citizens. The sector not only provides food security to the economy, but also sen es as Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691 a pool of surplus labor, provides employment while industry is at its nascent stage, provides raw-materials to fledgling industry and is a source ofUnderstanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691
demand for industrial sector’s products.However, the Indian experience has been an anomaly in this chronological order of structural transformation.

Research Scholar, South Asian Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691 eased over time. However, employment capacity of both industrial and service sector have not increased proportionately in order to accommodate the surplus labor that is still employed in the agrarian sector. If we look at employment elasticity across sectors for the year 2000, it was 0.02 for agricu Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691 lture, 0.38 for industry and 0.35 for service sector. The employment elasticity of the burgeoning service sector had fallen from 0.62 in 1988-94 to 0.Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691

The advent of structural transformation at its core also means changing inter-sectoral linkages over time. Tn this regard, it is argued that the linkages of agriculture sector become weak over lime. This could be due to a number of reasons like, diversification beyond agro-based Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691 industries, the sectors becoming self-reliant in terms of financing growth, the opening up of the economy affecting domestic sectoral interdependence,Understanding AgricultureIndustry InterLinkages For Agrarian Development: Empirical Evidence From India45691
