可持续发展目标的主要目标之一是消除一切形式的贫困和无处不在的贫困。本研究考察了造成农村贫困的因素；贫困与不平等之间的关系；以及比哈尔邦（印度经济最落后的邦之一）农户的贫困和资产负债率之间的差距。我们使用2010-11农业年的消费、收入和资产的原始数据。logit模型已被应用于实证识别导致贫困的因素。该研究发现，贫困与债务资产比率之间存在强烈的正相关关系，但不平等与贫困之间或不平等对贫困的任何影响之间没有相关性。结果表明，贫困在土地、牲畜和其他生产性资产较少、教育水平较低、家庭规模较大和抚养比率较高的家庭中更为普遍。
One of the main goals of SDGs is to remove of the poverty in its all forms and from everywhere. The present study examines the factors that are responsible for rural poverty; the relationship between poverty and inequality; and between poverty and debt-to-assets ratio among farm households in Bihar, one of the economically most backward states in India. We use primary data on consumption, income, and assets for the agricultural year 2010–11. The logit model has been applied to empirically identify the factors responsible for poverty. The study finds a strong positive, correlation between poverty and debtto-assets ratio, but not between inequality and poverty or any impact of inequality on poverty. The results indicate that poverty is more prevalent among the households having little access to land, livestock and other productive assets, low level of education, larger family size, and higher dependency ratio.
