Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The agricultural mechanization decision in many developing countries is complicated by the existence of a large agricultural population, high rural-urban migration rates since the Second World War, and a capital intensive industrialization process. All of these factors reduce the ability of the non-agricultural sector to absorb labor. More over, many developing countries may have affected mechanization decision in agricultural by their intervention in factor and product markets. Brazil is an ideal country to examine the determinants and effects of agricultural mechanization. Brazilian mechanization has occurred at an extremely rapid in the post-War period and Brazilian has actively intervened in its factor markets. The major results of the thesis area: 1. Timeseries analysis indicated that the subsidized financing was the statistically most significantvariabel determining investment in tractors and its effect swamped the relative price variables. This financing of the Bank of Brazil was provifrf at negative, real interest rates. 2. The elasticity of substitution between labor and tractors was statistically significant and greater than one in most cases hence shifts in relative factor prices have had a large effects upon factor proportion. The factor proportions choice between tractors and labor was statistically associated with agricultural wages, the level of bio-chemical expenditures per hectare, the crop mix, and the distribution of crop farm size. Concentrations of crop area on large farms increased the (...).

This book was released on 2019-03-13 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This framework presents ten interrelated principles/elements to guide Sustainable Agricultural Mechanization in Africa (SAMA). Further, it presents the technical issues to be considered under SAMA and the options to be analysed at the country and sub regional levels. The ten key elements required in a framework for SAMA are as follows: The analysis in the framework calls for a specific approach, involving learning from other parts of the world where significant transformation of the agricultural mechanization sector has already occurred within a three-to-four decade time frame, and developing policies and programmes to realize Africa’s aspirations of Zero Hunger by 2025. This approach entails the identification and prioritization of relevant and interrelated elements to help countries develop strategies and practical development plans that create synergies in line with their agricultural transformation plans. Given the unique characteristics of each country and the diverse needs of Africa due to the ecological heterogeneity and the wide range of farm sizes, the framework avoids being prescriptive.

This book was released on 1981-12-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Agrarian Question and Reformism in Latin America epitomizes the emerging tradition of conflict-oriented approaches to problems of economic, agricultural, and rurual development in Third World nations. Drawing on firsthand observations of the agrarian crises in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and ten other Latin-American nations, Alain de Janvry effectively blends Marxist theories of world-wide economic development with empirical analysis and policy recommendations. De Janvry offers both a careful examination of the conditions of underdevelopment in Latin America and detailed discussions of the achievements and limits of technological change, land reform, integrated rural development, and basic-needs program. The Agrarian Question and Reformism in Latin America is written for both practitioners and academicians. Students of economic development will benefit especially from its intelligent explication of conflict-oriented theory and technique.
