Excerpt: ... chapter xxviii Rural Cred1ts 1n The Un1ted States So long as we have the gold standard the only way the farmer can get connection with gold-covered currency subject to rural credit call is to tie up with a regional bank by owning a national bank. A rural credit bill for short time credit should provide for the Farmers' Cooperative bank to join the Federal Reserve Union. The currency, backed by the gold reserve, which the commercial bank now has provided, is beyond the reach of the farmer without this connection. The prices of commodities of the world do not now function in terms of gold except relatively. Exchange value, based on use, tilts the beam of markets regardless of metal barter. The United States Commission, appointed by Congress to study rural credits in Europe in 1913 (and accompanied the American commission which studied organized agriculture in all its phases) prepared a bill for the establishing of a system of rural credits in the United States. This bill was introduced into both houses of Congress and referred to sub-committees on Banking and Currency during the session of 1914. Extensive hearings were held, and representative men from all over the country came before the joint committee to present their views. Very naturally, the bill formulated by the United States Commission became the storm center of the discussion. some of its features 1. It provided for a commissioner of farm land banks to be at the head of a bureau of land banks in the department of the Treasury. 2. Also for the granting of federal charters to national farm land banks. 3. The State laws must provide for simplified landtitle transfers, registration and conveyance and foreclosing of mortgages; 4. For amortization in payment of debt. 7. For...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Markets and Rural Economics It matters not what vocation we may follow, each of us is vitally concerned, both in a material and social way, in the subject matter of this work. By far the greater activities of mankind are exerted in the production, distribution and consumption of the material things of life. It is a part of the task of civilization to so conduct these activities as to insure the greatest degree of efficiency. Without sufficient production life cannot exist; without proper distribution civilization must halt; without the application of the principles of economics to both, wanton waste must result; without an adequate system of markets and finance neither production nor distribution can be economically performed. The neglect of our institutions of learning to teach these subjects to those who compose the masses, who produce and consume, has resulted in our wasteful methods of distribution. It is necessary that these subjects be taught to those who are to be the agricultural producers, and to those who are to be the urban consumers of the future, to properly equip the rising generation for the duties of to-day and make easier the progress of the future. It has been the purpose in these pages to give a work suitable for the class room, reference library and for private study.

Download or read book African Farmers Value Chains and Agricultural Development written by Alan de Brauw and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a thorough introduction to and examination of agricultural value chains in Sub-Saharan Africa. First, the authors introduce the economic theory of agri-food value chains and value chain governance, focusing on domestic and regional trade in (and consumption of) food crops in a low-income country context. In addition to mainstream and heterodox thinking about value chain development, the book pays attention to political economy considerations. The book also reviews the empirical evidence on value chain development and performance in Africa. It adopts multiple lenses to examine agricultural value chains, zooming out from the micro level (e.g., relational contracting in a context of market imperfections) to the meso level (e.g., distributional implications of various value chain interventions, inclusion of specific social groups) and the macro level (underlying income, population and urbanization trends, volumes and prices, etc.).Furthermore, this book places value chain development in the context of a process the authors refer to as structural transformation 2.0, which refers to a process where production factors (labor, land and capital) move from low-productivity agriculture to high-productivity agriculture. Finally, throughout the book the authors interpret the evidence in light of three important debates: (i) how competitive are rural factor and product markets, and what does this imply for distribution and innovation? (ii) what role do foreign investment and factor proportions play in the development of agri-food value chains in Africa? (iii) what complementary government policies can help facilitate a process of agricultural value chain transformation, towards high-productive activities and enhancing the capacity of value chains to generate employment opportunities and food security for a growing population.

Download or read book The Role Of Markets In The World Food Economy written by D. Gale Johnson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book extends the discussion of world food problems by giving explicit recognition to the potential role of markets. The authors highlight the contribution of prices to the solution of food problems in low-income countries, for example, by providing adequate incentives to farmers to expand production, assuring that food supplies can be obtained through trade when needed and giving appropriate signals to consumers. They also document the negative effects on food supply and national welfare of the actual price policies of many Third World governments. While recognizing the problems involved in defining and measuring hunger, as well as in improving the food supply, the authors consider the outlook for future food availability as favorable in terms of continued modest improvement in per capita food supplies at prices, adjusted for inflation, that are likely to continue the slow decline of recent decades. One focus of their comments is the positive roles that governments can and should play in the world food economy, especially in support of research, creation of human capital, and provision of appropriate rural infrastructure.
Download or read book Rural Wealth Creation written by John L. Pender and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the role of wealth in achieving sustainable rural economic development. The authors define wealth as all assets net of liabilities that can contribute to well-being, and they provide examples of many forms of capital – physical, financial, human, natural, social, and others. They propose a conceptual framework for rural wealth creation that considers how multiple forms of wealth provide opportunities for rural development, and how development strategies affect the dynamics of wealth. They also provide a new accounting framework for measuring wealth stocks and flows. These conceptual frameworks are employed in case study chapters on measuring rural wealth and on rural wealth creation strategies. Rural Wealth Creation makes numerous contributions to research on sustainable rural development. Important distinctions are drawn to help guide wealth measurement, such as the difference between the wealth located within a region and the wealth owned by residents of a region, and privately owned versus publicly owned wealth. Case study chapters illustrate these distinctions and demonstrate how different forms of wealth can be measured. Several key hypotheses are proposed about the process of rural wealth creation, and these are investigated by case study chapters assessing common rural development strategies, such as promoting rural energy industries and amenity-based development. Based on these case studies, a typology of rural wealth creation strategies is proposed and an approach to mapping the potential of such strategies in different contexts is demonstrated. This book will be relevant to students, researchers, and policy makers looking at rural community development, sustainable economic development, and wealth measurement.
