This book was released on 2014-12-25 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bt (Bacillus Thuringiensis) cotton seed production focussed on the socio-economic characteristics of contract farmers, cost and return, efficiency of resource use and problems faced by the farmers in Bt cotton seed production under different companies. The total cost of Bt cotton seed production varied from one company contract farmers to other company contract farmers. The Cobb-Douglas production function revealed that the farmers who have contracted with different seed companies, the use of seed was found to be optimum across all company contract farmers. Whereas, fertilizer resource was over utilized by farmers who have contracted with various companies. Non availability of trained labour and prevalence of high wage rate were the major constraints in case of production, where as poor technical assistance and low contract price were the contractual problems. Therefore the Bt cotton seed production technology had positive impact on Socio- economic status of farmers by increase in yield and reducing cost on inputs thereby increase in income and also standard of living.

Download or read book Economic Analysis of Vegetable Seed Production and Marketing written by Arun GC and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite having a good scope of vegetable seeds as high value & low volume products, their profitable production is still elusive for the farmers. In this regard, a study was carried out to assess the economics of vegetable seed production and marketing in the Kavrepalanchowk district of Nepal. The primary data were collected through face-to-face interviews using a semi-structured survey questionnaire. For the interview, a sampling frame of all seed producers in the district was prepared and using the simple random sampling technique, sixty seed-producers were selected. Further, ten traders were also surveyed with a semi-structured questionnaire. The study found the highest benefit-cost ratio in tomato (3.36), followed by kidney bean (1.55) and cress (1.34). Only a single marketing channel was reported in the study site. The farmers sell their produces to a cooperative which eventually sells the seeds to a seed company. The limited irrigation facilities, incidence of disease and pests, and limited market information have been reported as the major hindrances in the study area. Thus, the findings show the potential to scale up vegetable seed production by enhancing market linkage and better collaboration between various value chain actors.
Download or read book An Economic Analysis of Price Control Adoption of Bt Cotton in India written by Anchal Arora and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption of Bt cotton in India has been remarkable with an unprecedented 168-fold increase between 2002-09. The price for official Bt cotton seed in India in 2005 was Rs 1600. The Indian government imposed a ceiling on the price of Bt cotton seeds in 2006. Thus, the adoption rates recorded an increase of 192% in 2006 over the previous year. Also during the same period when the adoption rates were increasing, many more Bt cotton hybrids were approved for cultivation in India. This book has analyzed whether and to what extent the government seed price interventions in 2006 have influenced adoption of Bt cotton in India. Another important contribution of this research is finding the effect of technological development defined in terms of number of Bt hybrids approved for commercial cultivation, on percentage area adopted under Bt cotton. Using a dynamic logistic model, it finds that although seed price interventions of the government were successful in impacting the adoption rates but its impact was limited. It was also found that technological development is an important factor affecting adoption rates.

This book was released on 2017-01-28 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetically engineered (GE) crops were first introduced commercially in the 1990s. After two decades of production, some groups and individuals remain critical of the technology based on their concerns about possible adverse effects on human health, the environment, and ethical considerations. At the same time, others are concerned that the technology is not reaching its potential to improve human health and the environment because of stringent regulations and reduced public funding to develop products offering more benefits to society. While the debate about these and other questions related to the genetic engineering techniques of the first 20 years goes on, emerging genetic-engineering technologies are adding new complexities to the conversation. Genetically Engineered Crops builds on previous related Academies reports published between 1987 and 2010 by undertaking a retrospective examination of the purported positive and adverse effects of GE crops and to anticipate what emerging genetic-engineering technologies hold for the future. This report indicates where there are uncertainties about the economic, agronomic, health, safety, or other impacts of GE crops and food, and makes recommendations to fill gaps in safety assessments, increase regulatory clarity, and improve innovations in and access to GE technology.
