However, as the government faces increasing pressure to contain its budget deficits, the need becomes imperative to target its spending more efficiently to achieve its growth and poverty alleviation goals. To do so, policymakers must have a clear understanding of how different types of public investment affect agricultural growth and rural poverty. |
