Book excerpt: Excerpt from Competition in the Japanese Market for Agricultural Products Prospects for United States rice in the Japanese market are not too bright. Japan expects to continue its own large production and hold imports well below the high levels of 1954 and 1955. It will import long-grain rice from Burma and Thailand to support its export sales. But it will import less of the short-grain rice its consumers prefer, and for these supplies it will turn to nondollar sources to save dollars and to boost exports. Use of barley for human consumption will probably decline. Imports will fall off and more of tne imported supply will be used as feed for the increasing livestock population. There fore, importers will have less objection to blue kernels and steely kernels. Canada and Australia, with increased produc tion of barley, will continue to compete in the Japanese mar ket, but the United States should hold its present share. Imports of corn will increase somewhat and the United States will continue to be the dominant supplier. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2019-02-03 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Competitive Position of U. S. Farm Products in the Japanese Market Several factors influence the quantities, types, and quality of farm products that Japan can and will buy. Population growth is adding nearly 1 million persons annually to the consumer market. Incomes are rising year after year. Land suitable for expanding cultivation is limited, and opportunities for expansion have beenwidely exploited. The expected increases in food and fiber require ments of the future will be met largely by imports. Rapid gains in consumer purchasing power are not only in creasing demand but are also shifting demand from the cheaper starchy foods to the more expensive foods, such as meat, milk, eggs, and fruits. A policy of producing rather than importing many livestock products is booming the demand for feed grains and other ingredients that go into livestock feeds. The costs of producing farm products in Japan are high. Japanese farmers, however, receive Government subsidies paid primarily as price supports on commodities for which domestic demand is strong and increasing. As a corollary to high support prices, the domestic market is protected by nontariff and, to a lesser extent, tariff barriers. Progress toward liberalization of import controls has eased the problem of getting foreign supplies into Japan generally, but not for many of the price-supported items.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Trade With the Cooperatives of Japan Naturally, permanent trade must go both ways. So, the United States market is also an important outlet for many products from Japan. These products have been largely non agricultural. In fact, the agricultural imports have been negligible. Total U. S. Exports to Japan have grown over the past few years; agricultural exports have been (except 1956) and still are the most important, but nonagricultural exports are gaining fast.

This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Market in Japan for U. S. Livestock and Meat Products Domestic hides and skins come onto the market in a wet-salted condi tion. The dealer cures tham.in his hide cellars. Although two saltings are standard, many hides receive a third salting. Domestic hides generally command a higher price than the imported ones. Progress in production and distribution of meat and livestock products has been offset by continued rapid population growth. Thus, although meat production increased 125 percent from the 193640 average to 1958, per capita consumption has remained very low. Only pounds of meat were consumed by the average Japanese during 1958. Almost 88 percent of Japan's tallow supply goes into soap manufacturing. About 1] percent is used by margarine manufacturers, 3 percent by lubricant and grease manufacturers, and 1+ percent by other industrial users. Only 1 percent is used for direct human consumption. No tallow is used in animal feeds in Japan at present. Soap consumption has risen rapidly in recent years. In 1958, about 730 million pounds of soap were produced, 3 percent above 1957, and 57 per cent above the prewar (193640) average. However, Japanese soap and detergent consumption remains very 10w-8 pounds per person in 1958-compared with 26 pounds for the United States.

This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Japanese Agricultural Economy Japan's 1960 popu'lation of million just over one-half that of the United States is compressed into an area smaller than California. The principal problem of too many people and too little land is further aggravated by the thin, inherently infertile soils and rugged topography. In spite of these adversities, the skillful Japanese farmers produce 80 percent of the domestic food requirements. This has been made possible by the liberal use of labor and capital, the concentration of production in high calorie-yielding crops, and dependence upon the sea for much of the animal protein. The agricultural sector accounts for one - seventh of the gross national product and employs nearly one - third of the labor force. Japanese farmers, who enjoy a higher level of living than their counterparts elsewhere in Asia, depend upon nonfarm sources for nearly 40 percent of their income. Well over 90 percent of Japan's agricultural land is used to produce food crops. Fe'ed grains and forage crops for livestock and agricultural raw materials for industry occupy a minor position. Rice occupies nearly one-half of the planted area and, -on a value basis, accounts for nearly one half of total agricultural income. In contrast to Western agriculture where the technology adopted has been designed to con serve labor, the primary aim of the land - scarce Japanese agricultural technology has been to increase yields. At present about three - fifths of the farmland is double cropped. Numerous recent develop ments, Such as earlier maturing varieties, the use of plant beds, and the widespread use of poly ethylene for early-spring frost protection, are aiding in the expansion of the multiple-cropped area. More than half of the cultivated area is irrigated. The heavy pressure of population upon the land and widespread underemployment result in the liberal use of labor. In order to obtain high yields, large capital inputs, especially in the form of fertilizer, are required._ Overall agricultural production has increased an average of 6 percent annually during the past several years. Yields per acre are among the highest in the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: In Can Japan Compete?, world-renowned competition strategist Michael Porter and his colleagues explain why American assumptions about Japan have proved so inaccurate, what Japan must do to regain its strength, and what its journey can tell us about how to succeed in the new global economy.The research behind this book began in the early 1990s, at a time when Japan's economic success was overwhelmingly credited to the Japanese government and its unique management policies. Porter and his colleagues started by asking a crucial but previously overlooked question: If Japanese government policies and practices accounted for the nation's extraordinary competitiveness, then why wasn't Japan competitive in many of the industries where those policies had been prominently implemented? The authors and a team of colleagues surveyed a vast array of Japanese industries. This surprising book is the result of their work. The continuing influence of Japanese government and management strategies worldwide makes Can Japan Compete? a must read for anyone competing in the global economy.
