This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document starts with a discussion on the scope for improvements in livestock technology and measuring aggregate productivity. It then looks into productivity growth, 'catching up' and technical change and productivity growth and decomposition for 1961-97. It also examines productivity forecasts with reference to catching-up and the logistic function and technical change-estimation of the frontier and forecasting. It also summarises for trade: projections to 2005 including trade model and database and macro-economic projections. The paper places particular emphasis on East Asian countries, and especially China.
Book Synopsis Collective Action for Grazing Land Management in Mixed Crop-livestock Systems in the Highlands of Northern Ethiopia by : Berhanu Gebremedhin
Download or read book Collective Action for Grazing Land Management in Mixed Crop-livestock Systems in the Highlands of Northern Ethiopia written by Berhanu Gebremedhin and published by ILRI (aka ILCA and ILRAD). This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communal grazing lands are important sources of feed in developing countries. The uncontrolled and free grazing system prevalent in many developing countries has caused sever degradation of the grazing lands. Several alternative management options have been recommended to solve the degradation of common property resources, including state ownership, imposition and enforcement of use rules and regulations by external organisations such as the government, private ownership and community resource management. This paper examines the nature and determinants of collective action for grazing land management in the highlands of Tigray, northern Ethiopia.

Book Synopsis Measuring Productivity in African Agriculture by : Simeon Ehui
Download or read book Measuring Productivity in African Agriculture written by Simeon Ehui and published by ILRI (aka ILCA and ILRAD). This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper argues that partial productivity measures are inappropriate and at times misleading for assessing the performance of agricultural production technologies and systems. This is especially true where substantial changes in resource stock and flows accompany the production process. Superlative-index based total factor productivity measures are a more appropriate technique to compare production efficiency and sustainability of alternative systems. Mathematical formulations of intertemporal and interspatial total factor productivity measures with and without considering changes in resource stock and flows are shown. Then three case studies from sub-Saharan Africa in which this approach was applied are reviewed. These studies show that total factor productivity measures are biased if changes in resource stock and flows are not appropriately accounted for in intertemporal comparisons, and differences in input intensity are not accounted for in interspatial comparisons.
Book Synopsis Food Security Effects of Intensified Dairying by : F. K. Tangka
Download or read book Food Security Effects of Intensified Dairying written by F. K. Tangka and published by ILRI (aka ILCA and ILRAD). This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the food security and marketed surplus effects of intensified dairying in a peri-urban area of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where a market-oriented dairy production (MODP) system has been introduced for smallholders. The system involved the introduction of crossbred cows and the utilisation of complementary feed and management technologies for increased dairy production. In this system, increased milk production is treated as a commercial product. Data have also been collected for a group of farmers using traditional technology and are used for comparison.

Book Synopsis Expanding Market Participation Among Smallholder Livestock Producers by : Garth John Holloway
Download or read book Expanding Market Participation Among Smallholder Livestock Producers written by Garth John Holloway and published by ILRI (aka ILCA and ILRAD). This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compendium reproduces results from several, independent research projects undertaken at the Livestock Policy Analysis Programme (LPAP) of the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This reproduction brings together separate pieces of research that relate to the same goals, namely, market expansion, food security, poverty alleviation and hunger prevention. It is to showcase the power of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods, particularly Gibbs sampling, in providing direct answers to policy questions. It is hoped that the empirical research showcased in this compendium will spur other researchers to apply MCMC methods and the Bayesian paradigm to the heterogeneous research projects and policy questions that employed research encounters in less developed regions.
