Institutional Innovations in the Delivery of Farm Services in IndiaA Smallholder Perspective /[electronic resource] :by Sukhpal Singh. - 1st ed. 2018. - XXIV, 246 p.online resource.

Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Sale, Purchase and Use of Agri Inputs and Services in India: A review -- Chapter 3. Agro-machinery rental services: Case studies from Punjab -- Chapter 4. Supermarket Retailing of Agro-inputs: A case study from Uttar Pradesh.- Chapter 5. Franchising in Agri-input and market linkage delivery: A case study from Bihar -- Chapter 6. Summary, Conclusions, and Policy implications.- References.

This book uses primary evidence to assess the value of agro-input and service delivery business models in terms of their inclusiveness, effectiveness and impact from a small farmer perspective, in the form of case studies in three Indian states: Punjab, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. The services discussed include custom rental of farm machinery and equipment, franchising for backward and forward linkage for farmers and the supermarkets for delivery of farm inputs, and extension services. The book examines agro-input and service delivery business models as institutional innovations for inclusive and effective delivery of such services in the small farmer context, based on primary data from the agencies designing and implementing such models and the farmers who make use of these inputs and services. Further, it identifies major issues and challenges in the delivery of farm inputs and services across regions and types of farmers and examines possible policy and enabling provisions to promote cost-effective and high-quality agro-input delivery channels.
