The financial cost of agricultural credit: a case study of Indian experience.
By: Datey, C.D.
Material type:
World Bank Staff Working Paper No. 296.
Little is known about the need for agricultural credit, both from insitutions and moneylenders, and the best means of providing it. Much too little is known about the real cost of providing institutional credit, both the cost to the farmers and the extent to which it is subsidized. This study aims to find out from limited data available the parameters of the problem and to make some preliminary estimates of the more important costs.
