Abstract
The impact of foreign capital inflows on developing country agriculture is examined for 73 developing countries for the period 1973-83. It is concluded that further borrowing by debt-burdened countries is unlikely to solve their agricultural production problems unless accompanied by the appropriate economic policy changes necessary for long term economic growth.
