Book Synopsis Commodity Payments, Farm Business Survival, and Farm Size Growth by : Nigel David Key
Download or read book Commodity Payments, Farm Business Survival, and Farm Size Growth written by Nigel David Key and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last 25 years, U.S. crop farms have steadily declined in number and grown in average size, as production has shifted to larger operations. Larger farms tend to receive more commodity program payments because most payments are tied to a farm's current or historical production, but whether payments have contributed to farm growth is uncertain. This study uses farm-level data from the census of agriculture to determine whether there is a statistical relationship between farm commodity program payments and greater concentration in production. The analysis indicates that, at the regional level, higher commodity program payments per acre are associated with subsequent farm growth. Also, higher payments per acre are associated with higher rates of farm survival and growth.

Book excerpt: In this important book on the present situation and prospects of agriculture in post-independent Eritrea, Tesla Gebremedhin emphasizes the crucial role of this sector in the overall social and economic growth and development of the country. This is a timely book that addresses issues of economic recovery, widespread poverty, deep-rooted underdevelopment, women's rights, and progressive environmental degradation in the newly independent African nation. A comprehensive review of the characteristics of the technical and institutional constraints and economic potentials of agriculture for development is presented in detail. Appropriate strategy and practical policy options for achieving and maintaining sustainable agriculture and rural development are thoroughly discussed. The book also provides rigorous economic analysis and valuable insights into development dynamics of an agrarian society which are relevant to any developing country. In addition, in-depth examination is made of the country's historical social institutions and economic structures, its traditional and conventional systems of land tenure and land-use policy, and the current perspective of local administration. Tesfa has made an important contribution to the understanding of the agricultural sector as it relates to the economic and political development of post-independent Eritrea. The book concludes with significant policy recommendations for consideration by decision-makers as well as development workers.

Book Synopsis Feeding the World by : Giovanni Federico
Download or read book Feeding the World written by Giovanni Federico and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-16 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last two centuries, agriculture has been an outstanding, if somewhat neglected, success story. Agriculture has fed an ever-growing population with an increasing variety of products at falling prices, even as it has released a growing number of workers to the rest of the economy. This book, a comprehensive history of world agriculture during this period, explains how these feats were accomplished. Feeding the World synthesizes two hundred years of agricultural development throughout the world, providing all essential data and extensive references to the literature. It covers, systematically, all the factors that have affected agricultural performance: environment, accumulation of inputs, technical progress, institutional change, commercialization, agricultural policies, and more. The last chapter discusses the contribution of agriculture to modern economic growth. The book is global in its reach and analysis, and represents a grand synthesis of an enormous topic.
