Abstract

Credit plays a crucial role in facilitating the modernization of agriculture and raising the participation of small farmers in the development process. Not only it can remove the financial constraint but also it may provide the incentive to adopt new technologies that would otherwise be more slowly accepted. Credit facilities are also an integral part of the process of commercialization of rural economy. The present study was conducted to find out the impact of SAC on farm income in the SBADP in tehsil Chakwal.
