Book excerpt: In this dissertation, I have studied farmland lease contracts in U.S. agriculture. Using the data from the 1999 Agricultural Economics and Land Ownership Survey, I investigated the empirical determinants of contract design from the perspective of the principal-agent framework, which emphasizes the role of incentives. In the empirical analyses, I found evidence that incentives indeed play an important role in contract design. In chapter 2, 1 investigated the role of risk, transaction costs, and endogenous matching between the landlord and tenant in contract choice. I found that both risk and transaction costs affect contract choice. Furthermore, I found evidence supporting endogenous matching between the landlord and tenant, and found that the matching is likely to affect contract choice. In chapter 3, I investigated whether contractual externalities exist in farmland lease design in modern U.S. agriculture. I argued that landlords non-cooperatively act and choose contract type due to negative contractual externalities. This leads to inefficient competition between landlords contracting with a given tenant and greater likelihood of cash rental contracts. I found some evidence that contractual externalities indeed exist and are likely to affect contract choice. In chapter 4, I investigated the link between contract choice and landlord participation decision from the perspective of the double-sided moral hazard hypothesis. I found some evidence to support the hypothesis, and furthermore, I found that other factors, including risk and transaction costs, are likely to affect contract choice and landlord participation decision jointly. This dissertation as a whole delivers an important conclusion: in farmland lease contracts in the United States, contract design is not just a matter of designing monetary compensation schemes or reducing transactions costs in accordance with the incentives in bilateral relationships, but involves various incentive devices (e.g., matching between landlords and tenants and landlord's participation in tenant's production decisions) in a way that the landlords can optimally coordinate incentives in multilateral relationships. Compared to the literature on farmland lease contracts that has principally dealt with the problem of designing monetary compensation scheme in bilateral relationships, I conclude that contract design in farmland tenancy related contracting is relatively complex.
Download or read book Sustainable Agricultural Development written by Mohamed Behnassi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-09 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to many challenges (i.e. climate change, energy, water and land shortage, high demands on food, land grabbing, etc.), agriculture production potential is expected to be seriously affected; thus, increasing food insecurity and hunger in many already affected regions (especially in Africa). In this context, sustainable agriculture is highly recommended as an eco-system approach where soil, water, plants, environment and living organisms live in harmony. Innovative technologies and research should be developed to ensure sustainable agriculture and productivity using modern irrigation systems, improved varieties, improved soil quality, etc. In the meantime, the preservation of natural environment should be based on resource conservation technologies and best management practices. Sustainable Agricultural Development, not only raises the serious ethical and social issues underlying these huge environmental problems, but also aims at presenting successful experiences from all over the world in relation with sustainable farming, sustainable management of water and land resources, and innovative processes in livestock production. It also aims at providing inputs to decision making processes and encouraging the transfer of relevant know-how, technologies and expertise to different countries where similar agro-climatic conditions may exist; thus saving precious resources and promoting sustainable agricultural development as a relevant approach to tackle the food security challenge. Finally, this book focuses on the paradigmatic and policy dimensions and call for an innovative approach by analyzing the key themes in a complex and interrelated manner.

Download or read book Development Economics written by Shahrukh Rafi Khan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-23 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the 2007–2009 financial and economic crises, there has been an unprecedented demand among economics students for an alternative approach, which offers a historical, institutional and multidisciplinary treatment of the discipline. Economic development lends itself ideally to meet this demand, yet most undergraduate textbooks do not reflect this. This book will fill this gap, presenting all the core material needed to teach development economics in a one semester course, while also addressing the need for a new economics and offering flexibility to instructors. Rather than taking the typical approach of organizing by topic, the book uses theories and debates to guide its structure. This will allow students to see different perspectives on key development questions, and therefore to understand more fully the contested nature of many key areas of development economics. The book can be used as a standalone textbook on development economics, or to accompany a more traditional text.

Download or read book Good Practice Guidelines for Agricultural Leasing Arrangements written by N. Ravenscroft and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2001 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The information in this booklet is designed to assist governments and civil society in understanding how agricultural leasing and related agreements work, and what the advantages are of providing an appropriate framework for equitable arrangements that balance the interests of the parties involved - generally the tenant and the landowner. The guidelines therefore deal with the contextual and policy issues surrounding agricultural leasing, but also focus on providing a practical and up-to-date guide and commentary on those issues that need to be considered by both landlord and tenant when negotiating over the leasing of agricultural land.
