This book was released on 2013 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is on Market; a typical man-made feature that has undoubtedly contributed immensely to the development of mankind worldwide. This work has unequivocally shown that market centres perform economic, cultural, social and political functions in Nigeria. The study is a state-wide research which has identified major market centres in Osun State, Nigeria. The author has identified hierarchical order of the market centres in the area as well as their intra and inter-relationship with the distinctive patronage levels. The findings reveal that distance, linkages and infrastructural facilities account for the locational attraction and patronage of market centres in the state. It was also discovered that political factor is another strong determinant of market locations in the area. With the list of goods and services in each of the major market centres in the state vis-a-vis the levels of patronage, the study has developed an inter-local government distance matrix based on direct motorable routes to estimate the approximate road interval between one market centre and others. The major recommendation in this book is the proposal for the development of nine model market centres."

Download or read book The Geography of Transport Systems written by Jean-Paul Rodrigue and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobility is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing, or supplying energy. Each movement has an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, a destination, and a nature which is linked with geographical attributes. Transport systems composed of infrastructures, modes and terminals are so embedded in the socio-economic life of individuals, institutions and corporations that they are often invisible to the consumer. This is paradoxical as the perceived invisibility of transportation is derived from its efficiency. Understanding how mobility is linked with geography is main the purpose of this book. The third edition of The Geography of Transport Systems has been revised and updated to provide an overview of the spatial aspects of transportation. This text provides greater discussion of security, energy, green logistics, as well as new and updated case studies, a revised content structure, and new figures. Each chapter covers a specific conceptual dimension including networks, modes, terminals, freight transportation, urban transportation and environmental impacts. A final chapter contains core methodologies linked with transport geography such as accessibility, spatial interactions, graph theory and Geographic Information Systems for transportation (GIS-T). This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, with a broad overview of its concepts, methods, and areas of application. The accompanying website for this text contains a useful additional material, including digital maps, PowerPoint slides, databases, and links to further reading and websites. The website can be accessed at: http://people.hofstra.edu/geotrans This text is an essential resource for undergraduates studying transport geography, as well as those interest in economic and urban geography, transport planning and engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The society and the economy of India largely operates through rural marketing systems. Rural markets and urban centres represent the cross profile of rural India. India is a country of villages and its real soul lives in her villages with 71% of its total population. Roughly 70% of India's population still draws its succour from agricultural activity and some 45% of its national income still accrues from agricultural sector. Actually agriculture is the stage on which the drama of economic development is enacted and rural marketing thus is intimately bound up with the process of economic development. Rural periodic marketing system are common throughout the less developed countries including India. In the present book the author creditably outlines the cross-section of Indian farmer to reflect country's rural markets and urban centres. Hundreds or even thousands aggregate on a convenient sector for a fraction of a day to exchange their earning an wants to function as a miniature hub of collecting and distributing commodities. The book is an exhaustive study of rural markets and urban centres, whose importance cannot be over emphasised in the rural development and planning in our country. The present book embodies the merit of compliance with the recent trend of studies and research in the discipline of Geography. The spirit of the writing relates in its era and theme coverage the fundamental thrust on aspect s of spatial organisation; the extent and the intensity of interconnection and interdependence among elements of physical and cultural landscape. In this book, Dr Ashok Kumar Sinha presents his pains taking study on field work, original collection of data and assimilation of rural markets an urban centres of the Magadh administrative division of Central Bihar which has a background of ancient history and rich cultural heritage having 91% of its population as rural. His original and methodical interpretation makes it more worthy. An attempt has been made to unroll historical setting of Magadh Division from unknown past to the current century before projecting profile of the project. There are eight meaningful, logical and well balanced chapters, eighty two cartographically sound maps and diagrams, thirty five selected tables, valuable appendices and admirable bibliography which explain geo-economic landscape of the country, various bases of theory and review of hierarchy of rural markets and urban centres, spatio-temporal characteristics, functional and behavioural characteristics of market, analysis of urban centres, micro-geography of sample markets, marketing an rural development. At last in summary and conclusion the author is of the view that marketing and rural development are interlinked without which their projected profiles fail to trace similarity of evolution and development. The zone of research has to be carefully traversed to fathom traders performance. Rural markets not doubt, function as levers of growth. To portray rural markets in their poly-phase, it is essential to balance markets, traders, consumers, goods movement and complexities. Marketing is the biggest problem ever faced by advancing rural industrial sector. A creation of an effective marketing infrastructure is needed to produce products of rural industries. If agriculture function as the heart of economy, rural industries will act as its lungs to balance production of commodities. And their sale on fair price in markets. This book is useful for geographers, sociologists, planners, economists and students of geography and regional studies.

This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role and position of urban agriculture in the spatial and functional structure of cities in the Global South. In the face of dynamic urbanisation and negative consequences of climate change, one of the key challenges is not only how to provide food for the ever-growing urban population but also how to achieve urban sustainability and simultaneously reduce the negative impact of cities on the natural environment. These problems are particularly urgent in the metropolises of the Global South that are experiencing the greatest population growth while struggling with increasing social inequalities and the resulting uneven distribution of resources. Examining the role that urban agriculture can play in addressing these challenges, this book draws on three case study cities: Havana, Singapore and Kigali. The case studies, differing in socio-economic, spatial, political and environmental terms, exemplify diverse characteristics of urban agriculture in different geographical conditions. Drawing on fieldwork conducted in each city, the book also provides a unique perspective on the constraints in the development of urban agriculture and the use of its full potential for urban sustainability. This book will appeal to students and scholars, as well as decision makers, interested in the issues of urban sustainability, food security, spatial development and alternative food systems.
