    @django1 I can tell what i have done!! Rest seniors can help.
    - Shankar Ias agriculture book.
    - economic survey
    - IYB chapter on agriculture.
    - then general terms which you will come across in economics and cropping pattern etc could be done from geography books
    - supplement it with yojna n kurukshetra issues.
    - this should suffice for g.s portion.

    I am not sure!! Search it on xaam.in downloads section or there is some site called shashidthakur... don't remember exactly.
    You can even go without it by studying topic wise i.e study a particular topic from internet. It could be time consuming and you will have to be extra alarmed as well. Benefit of this toiling exercise is that you will be confident about these topics then.
  • Mrunal food processing and agri marketing portions are the best internet material.

    @misfit_doc sir/ma'am any source for land reforms?
  • There was a yojana in 2011 or 2012. You can visit yojana archives and download it. Bipan Chandra's India since Independence has a portion on land reforms which is excellent,however questions are mostly current based so keep an eye on e governance measures like bhoomi project,land acq,FRA,land use pattern,computerisation of land records etc.
  • Economic survey, Indian Express dedicated page are good sources for current measures.
