This book was released on 2004 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the book: Socio-economic development in the rural mountainous area of Northern Vietnam depends to a high degree on the use and Exploitation of the natural resources. However, the population pressure is leading to an increasing demand on these resources and this in turn shows some kind of overuse and misuse of the natural resources. This again has a strong impact on the living standard and food security of the farmers in the region as well as has an implication on the sustainable development of the economy of the region and country. This book attempts to assess the socio-economic situation of families in the relevant to family resources especially natural resources and the living standard and food security of different settlement in three different altitude locations. These locations coincide with different ethnic groups and different level of remoteness, from urban centers. The study assessed the impact of future strategies concerning resources availability, use and management on the living standard and food security of farming families in the mountainous areas. The economic development trends in the mountainous areas show a link to the altitudinal, ethnical and commercial gradient and the availability of the production resources especially natural resources. The impact analysis of potential future strategies were simulated in multi-periodical (dynamic) linear programming models at family level. The results indicate that in order to improve farm and family incomes as well as living standards of the people in the area, sustainable use of natural resources through effective soils and forests protection, managed by the families themselves, will require greater emphasis since small changes in these resources - in the current stage of development - will have much greater impact on the living standard of the families than man-made resources such as capital.

Book Synopsis Rural Food Security and Living Standard in Humid Zones of Nigeria by : Eunice Oluyemisi Obamiro
Download or read book Rural Food Security and Living Standard in Humid Zones of Nigeria written by Eunice Oluyemisi Obamiro and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food insecurity is an important element in the poverty that is plaguing Nigeria. Dealing with the issue entails tackling the problems faced by the principal food producers, which are the rural smallholder farmers. Using the farming systems approach, this book focuses on an exposition of the underlying factors affecting food insecurity and poor living standard among rural families in the humid zones of Nigeria. Through multistage stratified sampling procedure, primary data was collected by field survey from 31 villages in Osun state. The analytical tools include descriptive statistics, econometric and the goal-programming model. Specific peculiarities of each household member was utilised for deriving calorie balance. Results show that poor living standard and food insecurity could be adduced to poor infrastructure, low input and resource availability. 59% and 41% of the households are calorie sufficient and deficient respectively. Modelling results reveal the negative impact of increasing risk factors that guides production decisions and some level of resource under utilisation and misallocation in actual practice partly adduced to risk avoidance behaviours therefore, the greater potential for farm families to be able to meet up with their food security goals through appropriate actions. Impact assessments show the need for improved cropping practices, credit facilities, land tenure changes and changes in the cocoa sector to improve food security.
Book Synopsis Agricultural Projects and Sustainable Development of Rural Areas in Benin by : Jacob Afouda Yabi
Download or read book Agricultural Projects and Sustainable Development of Rural Areas in Benin written by Jacob Afouda Yabi and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most criticisms of agricultural projects are that their design, management and monitoring are little efficient and consider little development needs of stakeholders. These weaknesses induce low impacts on sustainable development of beneficiaries, as well as low participation and adoption of modern technologies, which make the projects little sustainable. This book investigates therefore the impacts of the projects on sustainable development of stakeholders and the factors affecting their participation and adoption decisions, using a with-without approach and a structural modelling. The results show the impacts were positive, but depended closely on the area where the projects were implemented. As feedback, overall satisfactions that the stakeholders view from the impacts, human capital and access to production inputs were key factors of participation and adoption. Therefore, the solution for more sustainable impacts of agricultural projects lies on designing and implementing small-scale projects that target real development problems of stakeholders, improvement on human capital and access to production input.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an analysis of the impact of animal production in mountainous farming systems development in Northwest of Vietnam. The research areas are located in a typical transect in the mountainous zones. This transect represents a gradient from urban to remote areas, with changes in production condition (livestock types and breeds), degree of market orientation (feed stuffs), and socio-economics conditions (knowledge and production habit) due to different ethnic groups of the families. Information used came from interviews in panel survey, collected twice over two years. The descriptive analysis, historical analysis and comparative analysis show that family resources become increasingly scarce along the gradient from the market proximity to remote areas. The economic success follows the same trend with increasing remoteness, and the farm, off-farm and family income decrease. The study also found a relation between resource availability for crop and livestock and the size of the land. The livestock contribution to income is important for the bigger farms with a low production potential as well as for the small farms with high production potential. Fluctuations of resource availability and use over two years show that the resources are over-used. There is increasing utilisation of land in order to increase income while land quality seems to decrease. Results of regression models show that a small change in the animal sector impacts greatly the income and living standard of the families, offering an opportunity for the development of mixed farming systems, and hinting at its high potential for their future development. The impact analyses of potential future strategies were made using linear programming models at family level. Increasing the capacity of stables in order to increase herd size as well as comprehensive veterinary care could improve income. Improving income for families in remote areas is usually very hard to achieve.
