Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade there has been increasing interest in aiding the economies of developing countries by expanding local processing of primary products. This report presents the findings of a joint research project based on six case studies of individual products of interest to a braod spectrum of developing countries. The Commonwealth Secretariat investigated cocoa, coconut oil, natural rubber, and tea, while the World Bank investigated bauxite and tropical hardwood. Each case study addressed three important questions: (i) what factors are most influential in determining the particular location of the various processing chains; (ii) what gains and losses might result from the initiation or expansion of local processing; and (iii) can selected policy measures lead to an efficient shift in the location of the processing activities so that a greater share of the value added would accrue to developing country suppliers. Each study concluded with an assessment of this issue and provided some policy recommendations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reports findings from a literature survey to learn about the performance of infant industries in less developed countries. Remarkably little direct evidence was uncovered about the costs and benefits of developing these industries. But the findings indicate that infant firms have experienced relatively slow productivity growth. Thus many infants started some time ago apparently have so far failed to achieve international competitiveness. The findings suggest tentative conclusions about the causes of the failure. Insufficient productivity growth to achieve and maintain competitiveness seems to reflect the absence of sustained efforts to acquire and use the capabilities necessary for continuous technological change. Far more than stemming from experience alone, these capabilities appear to increase to needed levels only through consciously allocating resources to acquire them.

Book Synopsis Commodity Price Stabilization by : Andrew Schmitz
Download or read book Commodity Price Stabilization written by Andrew Schmitz and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1984 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay attempts to clarify and simplify the results of the literature on price stabilization in order to provide a better sense of the conditions under which commodity stabilization schemes will be successful and the welfare effects of such schemes. After introducing the early framework under which price stabilization was analyzed, the paper demonstrates the variance of results under alternative and more realistic situations. It treats topics such as storage and food security, inflation and economic development, public storage and futures markets, and non-storable goods. The conclusions are: (i) some countries may lose from price stabilization even though there is a net global gain; (ii) liberalized trade reduces the need for buffer stocks; (iii) futures markets reduce instability at a lower cost than buffer stocks; (iv) many national price stabilization schemes are actually price support systems used to improve farmers' incomes; (v) good price forecasting is a prerequisite to well-managed buffer stocks; (vi) price stability in poorer countries is not sufficient to avoid occasional food shortages; and (vii) food is costly to store and may not alleviate famine if transportation and distribution systems are inadequate.

Book Synopsis The Outlook for Thermal Coal by : Boum Jong Choe
Download or read book The Outlook for Thermal Coal written by Boum Jong Choe and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper uses an econometric simulation model of world energy markets to project the competitive supply, demand, and prices for thermal coal as a part of overall energy balance projections. Under the assumptions of moderate economic growth in the market-economy countries and a pricing path for OPEC oil that remains relatively stable for the 80's but increases steadily in the 1990's, the market-economies' demand for thermal coal is projected to increase. The share of coal in total energy consumption is expected to remain constant for the 1982-90 period but increase slightly in the 1990's. Uncertainties of economic growth, nuclear power supplies, and price elasticities of fuel demand are also shown to be the key elements that can substantially change the future of thermal coal. In view of the basically competitive structure of the world coal industry, it is reasonable to expect that, in the long term, the international coal prices will not increase beyond its long term costs of supply.

Book Synopsis The Supply Response for Rubber in Sri Lanka by : Michael J. Hartley
Download or read book The Supply Response for Rubber in Sri Lanka written by Michael J. Hartley and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1984 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Study of supply response for perennial crops has frequently been limited by lack of data. This study is based on new extensive time series for rubber in Sri Lanka covering total output, producer prices, new plantings, replantings, wage rates, area under cultivation, as well as many other variables. In addition, a survey of 49 rubber estates provides data on yields, type and age of clone, stand densities, and many other variables. This paper reports some preliminary analysis of the Sri Lankan data designed to test the adequacy of Dowling's analysis of supply response for rubber in Thailand, based on a sophisticated reduced form supply function developed by Wickens and Greenfield for Brazilian coffee. The model used in this study focuses on the uprooting-replanting decision, which is central to understanding rubber supply response in Sri Lanka, as well as disaggregates the reduced form into several structural relationships. Essential use is made of the age distribution and age-yield profile data from the estate surveys. This modest extension of the Wickens-Greenfield formulation performs significantly better in the Sri Lankan context, than a straightforward application of the model.
