Abstract:
This research aims to analyze the effects of agricultural subsidies on income inequality and rural development. Agricultural subsidies are a common policy tool used by governments to support farmers and promote agricultural productivity. However, there is a growing concern that these subsidies may exacerbate income inequality and hinder rural development. This study will employ a comprehensive approach, combining quantitative analysis and case studies, to examine the relationship between agricultural subsidies, income inequality, and rural development. The findings of this research will contribute to a better understanding of the impact of agricultural subsidies on socioeconomic dynamics in rural areas.
