Handleman,pg.311). There are five arguments toward Agrarian reform, Social Justice and Equality, Political Stability, Productivity, Economic Growth, and Environmental Preservation.

    4. NEW DELHI -- Each fall at harvest time, Leela Dhar Rajput used to hire 25 farm hands to work from dawn to dusk every day for a week bringing in the rice crop on his 20 acres of land in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. This year, he plans to use a combine harvester instead. With the machine and the help of two or three men, he expects to finish the job in a single day. Indian agriculture is belatedly engaged in a mechanical revolution, boosting productivity in a sector that has long relied on cheap, surplus labor to tend crops in the world's second most populous country. Job opportunities in factories and services, plus the government's rural job-creation program guaranteeing 100 days of employment a year on public-works projects, have drained the pool of workers in villages. "I just can't find enough people to do the hard work in the fields anymore," says Mr. Rajput. [Mukherji, B. (2013, October 29). India's Farmers Mechanize. WSJ, B8.]…

    While LAD has slowed down, the CARP Implementing Agencies have sustained the momentum of agrarian reform in the area of support to beneficiaries or PBD activities. However, the requirements for funding and institutional strengthening are very large, and by the end of 1998. only 10% of ARBs had directly received government support services. There is thus a pressing need both to accelerate the scope of support services to ARB, and to broaden the benefits to support to non-ARBs if CARP is to the problem of rural poverty. DAR's goal by the end of year 2004 is to have provided some kind of assistance to at least three-quarters of all ARBs, and a minimum standard of services to non-ARBs living in ARCs where there is a critical mass of ARBs. This is referred to as the 'expanded ARC concept.…
