Zusammenfassung:In den 1980s the wave of the Green Revolution finally reached Bangladesh. The engine of growth was the accelerated diffusion of tubewells (TWs). The exploitation of groundwater through the use of TWs converted the fallow land of the dry season into fertile paddy fields well suited to seed-fertilizer technology. Based on a case study of a village in north-west Bangladesh, the authors examine the role of the groundwater market in agricultural development and income distribution. (DÜI-Sen)
