Topics include decision milieu in agriculture; aggregate demand for an input; and notes on the statistical estimation of the demand function for an input. The text also examines the role of labor in agriculture, including agricultural wages, migration from agriculture, and regional labor supply. The monograph underscores the use of machineries in the agricultural sector. Analysis of post-war demand for power and machinery; early developments in agricultural mechanization; trends in the use of other machinery; and supply conditions for agricultural machinery are discussed. The text also looks at the use of fertilizers and pesticides in the agricultural sector, as well the need to invest in farm buildings. The book examines the demand for resources and supply of agricultural products. Future pattern of resource use and technological change; interactions between demands for different resources; and resource demand and a derived supply elasticity are discussed. The text is a valuable source of data for readers interested in the economic analysis of the agricultural industry.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modeling aggregate supply response of agriculture in developing economies may be effectively pursued both at micro and meso-levels in a profit maximizing framework, choice of technique and household decision theoretical system of neo-classical tradition. The system of equations consisting of aggregate output supply, input demand, and private investment functions can be estimated taking into account of imperfections in land, labor, capital and public infrastructure and market access across ago-ecosystems and production systems.

This book was released on with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This AGRODEP Technical Note provides a literature review on the topic of estimation of demand and supply elasticities. To this end, it starts the discussion by summarizing the main facets of production theory and consumer theory to introduce the concept of elasticities, with examples of di fferent types of elasticities most utilized in the literature. Next, it discusses the identi fication problem in estimating elasticities, i.e. the issue of having to solve for unique values of the parameters of the structural model from the values of the parameters of the reduced form of the model. It summarizes various methodologies employed in the literature to solve this problem and gives practical examples. These solutions include, but are not limited to, using instrumental variables, adopting a recursive structure, holding demand constant, and imposing inequality constraints in order to restrict the domain of estimates.
