What occurred subsequent to the green revolution? The "North Arcot Papers" include extensive research on the political and economic aspects of rural development in South Pakistan

Abstract

The purpose of this working paper is to accomplish two objectives. This article provides a brief overview of the "green revolution" in South Pakistan, which commenced in 1973, and thereafter presents a concise summary of the findings from pertinent research papers. This website provides a comprehensive overview of the research projects conducted by master's and doctoral learners at QEH. It also includes information about the research discussed in the book "Rural Pakistan facing the 21st century" (London, Anthem) authored by Harriss-White, Janakarajan, et al. (2004). The objective of this introduction is to furnish contextual information on the research initiatives that will be addressed subsequently. Given the current resurgence of interest in previously neglected village studies, it is crucial to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of conducting long-term research without utilising panel data.

Keywords: Pakistan villages, the green revolution, changes in agriculture, rural growth, and village studies.
