Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 8: July 1956 Projections of this kind are of value in looking ahead to the possible role of agriculture in the future. Despite the fact that such projections are bound by the assumptions under which they are made, they highlight the underlying trends that affect agriculture. Within this framework some indication of the problems that are likely to emerge in agriculture, the directions of the re search needs, and the potential markets for farm products, can be appraised. This gives some basis-for appraising what agriculture might be called upon to do in terms of the needs for food and fiber in a prosperous, growing economy. In appraising long-term growth in demand we have no economic forecasting techniques that are highly accurate, or to which usual probability error limits can be applied. Long-run economic appraisals are not unconditional predictions of the future; they are at best projections made in a framework of assumptions. The nature of growth and change in the economy, over time, does not lend itself to the rigorous type of analysis used in short-period or static appraisals.

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"--

This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 24: July 1972 Using the higher (absolute value) demand elasticities results in less favorable but viable conditions for agriculture in 1980 if diversion policies are continued. With a continuation of programs to divert 6 percent of potential farm output from commercial markets, net farm income would increase billion over the 1969 level. Demand increasing 50 percent faster than supply with high demand schedule. - The set of outcomes in table 5 which most nearly fits our expectations for 1980 results from a percent annual shift in demand, a percent annual shift in supply, a short-run demand elasticity, and a long-run demand elasticity.8 Depending on Government diversion and payment policies, the parity ratio would decrease 6 to 9 points. With one exception, the quantity of farm products demanded and supplied would increase. Net farm income would decrease moderately to billion under continuation of diversion and Government payment policies of the 1960's, and it would decrease severely to billion under a 1970 free market supply and to billion under a policy that gradually reverts to a free market by 1980. Thus continued diversion and payment programs are needed to avoid a major drop in net farm income. Table 6 contains annual estimates for this set of outcomes.
