"Sustainable Agriculture in the Developing World" by Yuichiro Amekawa offers a comprehensive theoretical and empirical analysis of sustainable agricultural practices in developing countries. The book particularly examines the social contexts of rural governance and the fresh fruit and vegetable production sector. Through this sociological investigation, it provides a new perspective on sustainable agriculture that goes beyond traditional approaches in agricultural and water management contexts. The political and economic issues addressed in this work make a valuable contribution to the fields of sociology and development studies. In addition to the academic audience, the book is also significant for policymakers and practitioners in agriculture and rural development, as it helps them become familiar with relevant issues in developing countries.
