| 總結: | This dissertation will be an exploration of the history of Singapore’s agricultural industry from
1970-2000. From almost disappearing in the 1970s due to pressures brought about by
development in the 1960s, the industry made a comeback in the 1980s and underwent a phase of
modernization. This remarkable transformation has been assessed mostly from the view of the
state and there have not been many attempts made to evaluate the role of the farmers in this
transformation. This paper will be an attempt to present a more holistic picture of the
modernization of the agricultural industry and show how the farmers along with the state
interacted to transform the agricultural industry. |
