Download or read book Effects of Grain Marketing Systems on Grain Production written by Zhang-Yue Zhou and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effects of Grain Marketing Systems on Grain Production gives readers valuable insight into the grain marketing and production systems of China and India. Researchers, scholars, and government officials involved in agricultural commodity economics and marketing will be particularly interested in this work, as few studies have focused on the agriculture of China and India, and even fewer on their grain industries. The grain issue is of crucial importance in China and India, since they are the two most populous countries in the world. In Effects of Grain Marketing Systems on Grain Production, Author Zhang-Yue Zhou investigates and analyzes the effects of these countries'grain marketing systems on grain production over the past four decades using expert surveys, farm-level surveys, and qualitative analyis of national aggregate data. He sets the stage for future research in this important field as he gives you specific information about: the minimum price support scheme grain procurement methods grain production subsidies government reserve stocks market infrastructures grain movement between regions non-government marketing channels supply responsesThe study's three-step procedure lessens bias, and its cross-checked results further strengthen the validity of its findings. The information presented in Effects of Grain Marketing Systems on Grain Production helps professionals at research institutes, universities, and government agencies, especially those emphasising Indian, Chinese, or Asian food economics, understand agricultural economics in developing countries. The book is also useful as a supplemental text for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate classes on Chinese and Indian economies and agricultural commodity economics in developing countries.

This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The state intervention in the agriculture market and trade policies, including ad-ministered prices or protective trade policies, with the objective of supporting food secu-rity, income generation for growers, and affordability for consumers has a long history. Most of these have been phased out through the late 1980s and 1990s though, wheat (through domestic procurement, temporary import/export control imposing regulatory duties, and sub-sidized sales to select flour mills) and sugarcane (through import tariffs, as well as indicative prices and export subsidies) still are the two major crops with public intervention. In addition, import tariffs and other restrictions protecting dairy products and vegetable oils remains. Be-sides, there are input subsidies on fertilizers, electricity for water pumping1 or implicitly, on canal irrigation water.

This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While policy makers, media, and the international community focus their attention on Pakistan’s ongoing security challenges, the potential of the rural economy, and particularly the agricultural sector, to improve Pakistanis’ well-being is being neglected. Agriculture is crucial to Pakistan’s economy. Almost half of the country’s labor force works in the agricultural sector, which produces food and inputs for industry (such as cotton for textiles) and accounts for over a third of Pakistan’s total export earnings. Equally important are nonfarm economic activities in rural areas, such as retail sales in small village shops, transportation services, and education and health services in local schools and clinics. Rural nonfarm activities account for between 40 and 57 percent of total rural household income. Their large share of income means that the agricultural sector and the rural nonfarm economy have vital roles to play in promoting growth and reducing poverty in Pakistan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture plays a pivotal role in the economy and development of Pakistan providing food to consumers, raw materials to industries, and a market for industrial goods. Unfortunately, agricultural production is stagnant due to several barriers including a fixed cropping pattern, reliance on a few major crops, a narrow genetic pool, poor seed quality, and a changing climate. In addition, the high cost of production, weak phytosanitary compliance mechanisms, and a lack of cold chain facilities makes Pakistan agriculturally uncompetitive in export markets. Despite all these issues, agriculture is the primary industry in Pakistan and small farmers continue to dominate the business. Small farmers grow crops for subsistence under a fixed cropping pattern and a holistic approach is required to develop agriculture to improve the livelihoods of the rural populace. This book presents an exhaustive look at agriculture in Pakistan. Chapters provide critical analyses of present trends, inadequacies in agriculture, strategic planning, improvement programs and policies while keeping in view the natural resources, plant- and animal-related agricultural production technologies, input supplies, population planning, migration and poverty, and balanced policies on finance, credit, marketing, and trade.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fertilizer industry in Pakistan, with US$3.74 billion per year in sales, now stands at a crossroads where, after an initial substantial contribution in boosting crop productivity, its future potential is being challenged. Fertilizer-responsive crop varieties, supplementary irrigation water, and a favorable policy environment in Pakistan have induced fast growth in fertilizer demand. On the supply side, the availability of gas at low prices along with a favorable investment environment resulted in the buildup of excessive manufacturing capacity. But recently, a shortage of gas and monopolistic behavior has led to underutilization and greater imports. Restrictive laws put fertilizer processing and marketing in a few hands, which has also affected its efficiency. Moreover, the yield response of fertilizer has tapered off and per hectare use is fast reaching its optimal level. The existing policy environment leads to higher costs, inefficient use, and a heavy burden on the government as it charges one-fourth of the market price for feedstock gas used in fertilizer manufacturing. In addition, the government imports urea and absorbs the difference in international and domestic prices.
