INDIA; The changing impact of rural electrification on Indian agriculture 

INDIA; The changing impact of rural electrification on Indian agriculture  | ASIES | Scoop.it

Rural electrification policies in the developing world primarily focus on household power, often at the cost of electricity supply to other productive sectors of the economy. We examine the consequences of this imbalance in rural electrification policy priority on agricultural development in India. Electric pumping of groundwater for irrigation is a major driver of India’s agricultural growth. However, the government of India shifted its rural electrification focus towards universal household electrification starting early 2000s. Using a newly constructed panel-dataset spanning three decades, we find that districts electrifying after the policy change experience much lower gains in electrified groundwater irrigation. On average, electrifying 100 additional rural households is associated with an increase of two additional electrified wells among newly electrified districts – eight times lower compared to 16 electrified wells per 100 electrified households among districts electrified pre-policy change.

Vladimir Poutine s'est félicité d'un niveau « sans précédent » de coopération énergétique entre la Russie et la Chine. Une bonne nouvelle pour Moscou, qui souhaite renforcer ses partenariats en Asie depuis le début de son offensive en Ukraine. Objectif, compenser la perte d'une grande partie du marché européen. Les liens entre les deux pays se « renforcent » d'une façon plus générale selon le président russe, en raison notamment des conflits et menaces dans le monde.

Le fond des océans est en passe de devenir le prochain théâtre de la concurrence mondiale en matière de ressources, et la Chine est prête à le dominer. La mer contiendrait plusieurs fois plus de métaux rares que la terre, qui sont indispensables à la quasi-totalité des produits électroniques, des produits à énergie propre et des puces informatiques de pointe d'aujourd'hui. À l'heure où les pays s'efforcent de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre, la demande de ces minéraux devrait monter en flèche.

INDIA: The Israel-Hamas conflict impacts on Indian farming and exports 

INDIA: The Israel-Hamas conflict impacts on Indian farming and exports  | ASIES | Scoop.it

Israel-Hamas conflict escalates, disrupting supply chain. India, a major trading partner of Israel, primarily deals in non-agricultural products, making its domestic agriculture and related exports less likely to be impacted. Israel's agricultural sector's contribution to GDP decreased from 1.1% in 2020 to 0.9% in 2021. Israel transitioned from an agrarian economy to an agro-tech hub. India maintains a net positive export relationship with Israel, with major exports being petrochemical derivatives, pharmaceuticals, and industrial equipment. Sanctions from the conflict may have limited impact on India's agricultural exports.
