Abstract:
This study endeavors to explore the dimensions of asset sharing within India's agricultural sector, specifically focusing on the utilization of facilities and equipment. Given the backdrop of a burgeoning population juxtaposed with diminishing land resources, the imperative for efficient resource allocation emerges as paramount. Through an exhaustive examination of existing literature coupled with an in-depth analysis of pertinent case studies, this research aims to assess the prevalence of asset sharing practices, discern their motivating factors, and elucidate the attendant advantages and impediments. The inquiry encompasses a spectrum of asset sharing modalities, spanning from informal agreements among marginal farmers to structured cooperative endeavors. Furthermore, the investigation scrutinizes the influence of technological innovations and governmental policies in either catalyzing or impeding initiatives aimed at asset sharing. By illuminating the current landscape and identifying potential pathways for enhancement, this paper seeks to make substantive contributions towards bolstering productivity, sustainability, and resilience within India's agricultural milieu.
