Over the past two decades, rural India has undergone significant structural changes triggered by globalization and policy shifts that promote a market-driven capitalist economy, replacing the traditional self-sufficient agricultural system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocusing on Telangana, particularly the Warangal district, the study reveals how farmers struggle to navigate the complexities of the new economic environment without adequate institutional support, capital, or favorable market conditions. This lack of support has contributed to widespread distress, deepening rural inequality and leading to a tragic increase in suicides among farmers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book offers a comprehensive examination of the socio-economic, cultural, and political disruptions caused by these transformations. It explores critical areas such as technology adoption, labor relations, crop patterns, marketing challenges, and policy implications. It also evaluates government interventions and proposes practical solutions to address farmer vulnerability and policy gaps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a valuable resource for sociologists, policymakers, researchers, and development professionals who seek a nuanced understanding of the rural crisis in post-liberalization India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMethodology\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderstanding Farmer Suicides: Socio-Economic Pressures and Family Dynamics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmerging Agrarian Structure, Mode of Production, Adoption of Technology, and Labour Relations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgricultural Dynamics: Crops, Investments, Marketing, and Policies\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderstanding Farmer Distress: Suicides and Official Reports\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGovernment Support for Families of Deceased Farmers: Policies, Programmes, and Stakeholder Roles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFindings and Conclusions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author \/ Editor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGattu Satyanarayana is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Sociology at Osmania University, Hyderabad.
