Central Problem of Economics (Economics Redefined)

The vanaspati industry in India is a vital one, next only to the sugar industry. By and large most of the population, whether rich or poor, is affected by fluctuations in the production of this commodity. Dr. Mathur's book is perhaps the only one of its kind giving the history and the problems of this industry in one place and, in addition, offering possible solutions for implementation both by Government as well as the industry. This excellent study is a comprehensive one describing and analysing the growth and development of the industry since its inception over 45 years ago. It contains rich data about the production, consumption and capital investment besides cost analysis of the production of vanaspati in India. Extremely useful to entrepreneurs, policy makers, economists and those interested in the food industry.
