Download or read book Factors of Success of Small Farms and the Relationship Between Financial Success and Perceived Success written by Virginie Youkoujouo Nanhou and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the factors of farm success, determines the profile of small successful farmers and also explores the factors affecting farmers' perception of success. Farm size was measured in terms of gross sales and a profit index (equal to ratio of gross profit over gross profit minus management return) was used as a measure of financial efficiency and also as a proxy for farmers' profitability. A sample of seventy-three farmers, further divided in four groups based on a combination of farm size and profit levels, was used in the analyses. Means comparisons using t-tests to identify success factors, a multiple regression estimating the effects of main success factors identified through t-tests and a logistic regression estimating the contribution of profitability and other factors on farmers' success perception were based on data from Farm Business Association (1991-1996 period) and from survey. Results indicate that farms' profitability is affected negatively by farmer's age but positively by farmer's education, crop yields, machinery and labor efficiency, percent of rented acres and percent of revenue from livestock.
Download or read book The Impacts of Economic Demographic and Weather Factors on the Exit of Beginning Farmers in the United States written by Denis A. Nadolnyak and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of efforts to promote sustainability and growth of beginning farmers and ranchers (BFRs) depends on a set of diverse factors whose individual impacts on the survival or exit from farming need to be examined. This paper evaluates how a variety of economic and demographic factors, together with weather variability, affect BFRs' exit from farming. It uses farm-level data from the US Census of Agriculture for the period 1992-2012. The framework of analysis is based in the literature on firm exit, and complemented by insights from recent research on young and beginning farmers, as well as the literature on climate impacts on agriculture because weather remains a key input to farming and its variability is a major source of risk to less experienced BFRs. The main finding is that flow variables such as profitability and off-farm employment do not affect BFR exit, while reliance on government payments increases the exit probability. Consistent with previous work, the size of operations matters, and BFRs with larger asset, higher sales, and those in livestock production have lower probability of exit. Price variability that affects exit is largely attributable to weather variability, consistent with previous work. The weather impacts on BFR exit are mostly attributable to droughts, but temperature also has a non-linear and highly seasonal impact.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Farming as it is practised in market industrialized countries is predominantly a family business.

Download or read book The New Peasantries written by Jan Douwe van der Ploeg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When first published in 2008, The New Peasantries revolutionized our ways of thinking of what constitutes the peasantry and repeasantization. It showed how a new era of empire and globalization was creating new forms of peasantry. This new edition is thoroughly revised, with a reorganization of chapters and several new chapters added. It includes a new chapter on China, based on the author's extensive fieldwork there, and much more information on Brazil. It integrates and critically reviews the many publications on peasants, peasantries and peasant modes of agricultural production published in recent years. The theoretical discussion is enriched with more attention to the seminal work of Chayanov. Greater attention is also paid to the construction of new markets – a theme that will remain a major issue in the coming decade. It combines and integrates different bodies of literature: the rich traditions of peasant studies, development and rural sociology, neo-institutional economics and debates on empire and globalization. The original book has been used in several international postgraduate courses. The experience and feedback thus obtained has been used to simplify the structure of the book and make it more accessible as a textbook for students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Goat science covers quite a wide range and varieties of topics, from genetics and breeding, via nutrition, production systems, reproduction, milk and meat production, animal health and parasitism, etc., up to the effects of goat products on human health. In this book, several parts of them are presented within 18 different chapters. Molecular genetics and genetic improvement of goats are the new approaches of goat development. Several factors affect the passage rate of digesta in goats, but for diet properties, goats are similar to other ruminants. Iodine deficiency in goats could be dangerous. Assisted reproduction techniques have similar importance in goats like in other ruminants. Milk and meat production traits of goats are almost equally important and have significant positive impacts on human health. Many factors affect the health of goats, heat stress being of increasing importance. Production systems could modify all of the abovementioned characteristics of goats.
