Download or read book The Economics of Tropical Farming Systems written by Martin Upton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-12-12 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the author's widely used earlier text African Farm Management, this account updates the economic analysis of tropical agriculture and broadens its perspective to include examples from all parts of the developing world. Writing in a clear, concise style, Professor Upton explains the essential theories of farm economics without numerous mathematical formulae. The text is completely revised, with increased emphasis on farm household economics, in which farms are seen as consumers as well as producers. Also included is a new chapter on the economics of irrigated agriculture. This book provides an invaluable economic framework for better understanding the operation and management of farming systems in the tropics, and will be welcomed by students of tropical agriculture worldwide. From reviews of African Farm Management: "The author produces an authoritative text interlaced with many relevant and illustrative references." -- Experimental Agriculture

Book excerpt: Although the problems of theory, measurement, and the correct specification of farmer objective functions, discussed in this chapter, all call into question the adequacy of studies of small farmer efficiency based on a profit maximizing behavioral model, nevertheless efficiency may be a worthwhille area of study and profit maximization an acceptable assumptiom. Several empirical studies of resource allocation by small farmers that found their behavior to be consistente with effciency and profit maximization were cited abive in the first section of this chapter. Hence, the empirical evidence tends to indicate that efficieency analysis often produces a model which conformes fairly well to actual farmer behavior. Thus, despite empirical and theoretical compliations which some feel make efficiency analysis of small farmer behavior of dubious merit, it may argued that it is still usefull for policy purposes to investigate issues of resource wastage among small farmers, Efforts to understand whether and why some small farmers produce more than others given the same levls of observed imputs, seen to be particulary important in low income countries where there is substantial concern to maximizede productivity of the available scarce resources. Since the skills of the farm managers may have a substantial influence on their ability to attain efficiency, and since investments in schooling or ...
