A haunting portrait of rural collapse in the age of unchecked capitalism and climate catastrophe.
In Broken Harvests, author and researcher Rahul Yadav exposes the silent unravelling of India's agrarian society - a world where ancestral fields now bear the scars of debt, drought, and despair. Drawing from on-ground narratives, powerful testimonies, and incisive socio-economic analysis, this book dives deep into how globalisation, corporate greed, and climate volatility have pushed millions of farmers to the edge.
This is not just the story of vanishing crops - it's the story of a vanishing way of life.
From pesticide poisoning in Yavatmal to farmer suicides in Vidarbha, from contract farming traps to the hollow promises of development, Broken Harvests examines the intersections of policy failure, neoliberal economics, and environmental collapse. Through real case studies and a humanistic lens, Yadav reveals how India's food producers are being erased from both fields and policy priorities.
What happens when the monsoon no longer comes - and neither does justice?
Who benefits when farming becomes a boardroom decision, not a generational vocation?
How did the green fields turn into graveyards of the forgotten?
This urgent and deeply moving book is a must-read for:
Scholars of development and rural studies
Policy-makers and change-seekers
Activists, journalists, and all concerned citizens
Anyone who believes food security must begin with farmer dignity
More than a critique, Broken Harvests is a call for restoration - of land, of livelihoods, and of lost hope.
