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.

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.
