Abstract

An important reason for this dichotomy between agriculture and non agricultural sectors is that the former is a state subject under the Indian Constitution placing the burden of implementation of reform agenda on the states. Some attempts were made by the central government during years 2002 to 2004 to initiate and promote reforms in agriculture through a Model APMC Act, changes in Essential Commodities Act and changes in Milk and Milk Product Order. Subsequently, some of these reforms were rolled back. Reforms related to APMC act were adopted very slowly and partially across different states and UTs. One third of the states and UTs did not adopt any of the APMC reforms.
