agrarian change

Agrarian change refers to shifts in how land is used for farming, ownership patterns, and rural life over time. It includes changes in farming practices, the shift from small-scale to large-scale agriculture, and rural community dynamics. These changes can result from economic development, technological advances, policies, or social shifts, and they impact productivity, livelihoods, and the environment. Understanding agrarian change helps explain how rural areas evolve and how agriculture adapts to meet societal needs and challenges.
