| Title: | LAND AND FOOD SUPPLY PROBLEMS IN BANGLADESH |
| Authors: | Aziz, Fahima |
| Authors (Email): | Aziz, Fahima (faziz@piper.hamline.edu) |
| Issue Date: | 1996 |
| Series/Report no.: | Staff Paper P96-02 |
| Abstract: | This paper will study the problems of food supply and analyze the reasons for the slow growth in the production of foodgrains [in Bangladesh]. The foodgrain distribution system will also be addressed and its role in the food shortage problem of Bangladesh. Past evidence shows that landlordism has obstructed the incentives of the peasants and has depressed the maximum productivity of owner-operated farms. This paper will briefly discuss the history of land reform and the measures undertaken to bring about tenancy reforms in Bangladesh. |
