INVESTMENT IN AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY AS A CATALYST TO RURAL DEVELOPMENT
CHAPTER ONE
1.0 Introduction:
1.1 Background Of The Study
Investment in agricultural property is not advanced as that of developed countries of the world. Agricultural property investment amounts to all investment operation in such property as cash crops, livestock, pasture land, cottage etc.
