INTAG 402
Agriculture In The Developing Nations
Prerequisite: International
Agriculture 300. F 1:25-3:20. KV Raman, WR Coffman,
The goal of this course is to acquaint students with
the major issues and problems in international agriculture
and rural development and to show how problems in
development are being addressed by international,
government, and non-government agencies. The lectures/discussions
attempt to establish the global context for sustainable
agricultural development and focus on agriculture
and rural development in the tropics, using case studies.
This course may be taken as a stand-alone survey course
in international agriculture, but it is also the preparatory
course for participation in Agriculture in the Developing
Nations II (International Agriculture 602), which
includes a trip to a developing country during the
intersession.
