Abstract	A 10-day seminar for senior government officials concerned with making rural development policies in selected Asian countries focused on programs adopted by various Asian governments to tackle rural development problems. To compare various approaches, seven indicators of rural development were used: agricultural productivity; rural employment; distribution of income and wealth within different rural groups and classes and between rural and urban areas; welfare services available to classes in rural areas as well as relative to urban areas; extent of effective participation of rural people in decisions at national and local levels; degree of social mobility within classes and ethnic groups in rural areas; and changes in values, beliefs, and attitudes which increase capacity of rural people to control their environment. This document contains a summary of discussions on the following themes: Concept of Rural Development, Its Measurement and Place in Overall National Development; Policies of Rural Development; Implementation of Rural Development Policies; and Accelerating Rural Development. Included are recommendations, summaries of 13 research-team papers, and studies on policies and programs in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Iran, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, and Sri Lanka.
