This second volume edited collection presents a diverse and comprehensive examination of the history of Latin American agriculture over the last 150 years. This volume analyses the agricultural sector in eleven Latin American economies-Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela-in terms of agricultural production, use of inputs (land, capital, labour), technological change, institutional factors, the design of agricultural public policies and the consequences in terms of environmental degradation. Weaving an awareness of broader regional and global contexts into each chapter, the volume illuminates the diversity of developments and trends in agricultural history across different countries, facilitating stronger understanding of the role of agriculture in economic development and policy implications for the continent today. The book will be a valuable resource for scholars of economic and agricultural history, as well as development economics and Latin American economic policy.
