dc.description.abstractThis report, intended to inform the planning of an IDRC programme on globalisation, growth and poverty, sets out a research agenda on agricultural growth and poverty reduction, and outlines the methods and means by which that agenda could be studied. Drawing on a detailed analysis of the environment and factors that influence agricultural development, the report has three sections: setting out the issues considered important to thinking about agricultural growth and poverty reduction; choosing an agenda in the light of what others are doing, the scope for policy leverage, and how it might apply in different contexts; and outlining the methods and means that might be used to implement the research programme. In particular it suggests a focus on rural labour markets ! with linked consideration of migration and the rural non-farm economy that so closely influence the labour markets as well as agricultural input supply, produce marketing and farmer organization in an attempt to understand the institutional changes which might limit market failures.en
