Abstract

"This report discusses the experience of the recent past and future prospects of the agriculture sector. We examine the trends and changes in agricultural taxation and expenditures noting the constraints to agricultural growth related to policies in the nonagriculture as well as the agriculture sector. We focus, in particular, on irrigation, which has accounted for over half of agricultural expenditure over the past decade and which has been a major contributor to both rapid growth in exports and agricultural employment."
