For the separate years, the movements corresponded in from 63 to 70 percent of the cases. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 7: A Journal of Economic and Statistical Research in the United States Department of Agriculture and Cooperating Agencies; October 1955 Several illustrations can be cited in which value added provides a better measurement than that of more usual statistics on agricultural marketing. Value added gives the most meaningful compari sons of the share of the consumer's dollar actually received by the different sectors of the economy as it provides an unduplicated measurement of the gross returns received by the various groups. For example, an increasing share of cash farm receipts is represented by motor fuels, fertilizers, and other purchased production supplies.11 Therefore, the farmer's share of the consumer's dollar as meas ured by value added has' declined relative to thefarmer's share as measured by the more usual com parisons of farm and retail prices. In discussions of farm and marketing shares of the consumer's dollar, statistics on net income after taxes often are cited to illustrate that profits of marketing agencies are a small percentage of the retail price. These statistics are useful in pointing out that costs, including taxes, of marketing agencies make up a large part of their gross margins. It is al most impossible, however, to obtain comparable figures representing net income to farmers. Statistics on cost breakdowns of the marketing bill would be more meaningful if compared to value added. Statistical series are compiled of the numbers and costs of labor employed by agen cies engaged in processing, transportation, whole saling, and retailing of farm food products.12 For more appropriate comparisons, trends in these labor costs and numbers should be related to trends in value added by these agencies rather than to the total marketing bill which includes value added by other agencies.

This book was released on 2021-10-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The challenges facing agriculture are plenty. Along with the world's growing population and diminishing amounts of water and arable land, the gradual increase in severe weather presents new challenges and imperatives for producing new, more resilient crops to feed a more crowded planet in the twenty-first century. Innovation has historically helped agriculture keep pace with earth's social, population, and ecological changes. In the last 50 years, mechanical, biological, and chemical innovations have more than doubled agricultural output while barely changing input quantities. The ample investment behind these innovations was available because of a high rate of return: a 2007 paper found that the median ROI in agriculture was 45 percent between 1965 and 2005. This landscape has changed. Today many of the world's wealthier countries have scaled back their share of GDP devoted to agricultural R&D amid evidence of diminishing returns. Universities, which have historically been a major source of agricultural innovation, increasingly depend on funding from industry rather than government to fund their research. As Upton Sinclair wrote of the effects industry influences, "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it." In this volume of the NBER Conference Report series, editor Petra Moser offers an empirical, applied-economic framework to the different elements of agricultural R&D, particularly as they relate to the shift from public to private funding. Individual chapters examine the sources of agricultural knowledge and investigate challenges for measuring the returns to the adoption of new agricultural technologies, examine knowledge spillovers from universities to agricultural innovation, and explore interactions between university engagement and scientific productivity. Additional analysis of agricultural venture capital point to it as an emerging and future source of resource in this essential domain"--

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 9: A Journal of Economic and Statistical Research in the United States Department of Agriculture and Cooperating Agencies; January 1957 Income elasticities derived from family budget data may be regarded as long-term elasticities, as are elasticities derived from market statistics.6 If this is so, why are there differences between elasticities obtained from time series or market data and family budget data? The literature is not very definite on this point. Theil (7, p. 181) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 26: July 1974 During the gas shortage in the winter of 197 3-7 4, farmers were high on the priority list for gasoline allocations. Under the proposed exchangeable coupon gasoline rationing, this allocative machinery and priority system would be superseded by a coupon resale market. The exchangeable coupon resale market is examined from the perspective of a consuming household and of a producing firm. The conclusion is that the coupon resale market will ration gas among the same uses that a higher market price would - the difference being not one of allocation of gas among alternative uses, but one of redistribution of income. The amount of income to be redistributed is estimated in the neighborhood of $28 billion per year. Keywords: Economic theory, Income distribution, Gasoline, Rationing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 21: July 1969 Again and again someone proposes income supplements to poor people in the United States as a way of solving the farm problem. At first glance, this proposal sounds reason able and, of course, it is humanitarian. But invariably the conclusion is the same: The unsatisfied demand for food in the United States is much less than agriculture's capacity to produce. The analysis supporting the results presented in this paper is admittedly crude. However, in a qualitative sense, we believe the following conclusions are valid.
