This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding economic growth is central to the study of development. Rural economic growth is an important aspect of economic growth. Historically, rural agriculture has employed most people in most countries, and continues to do so today. Nevertheless, the casual relationship between economic growth and growth in agriculture remain poorly understood. This volume focuses on economic growth in the agriculture sectors of Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand. Starting from similar positions, the agriculture sectors of these economies have diverged considerably over the last 40 years. This volume investigates the ways in which policy, institutions, investments, resource constraints and the reallocation of agricultural labor have driven this divergence. It volume documents the interplay of endowments, technology, the accumulation of productive factors, policy, and advocacy in the rural sectors of these three countries. It contributes in its own ways to an explanation of the past. Good policy rests on an understanding of successes and failures in the past. This book is a critical contribution to such an understanding.
Book Synopsis Determinants of Agricultural Growth in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand by : Yair Mundlak
Download or read book Determinants of Agricultural Growth in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand written by Yair Mundlak and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2002 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of new high-yielding varieties of cereals in the 1960s, know as the green revolution, changed dramatically the food supply in Asia as well as in other countries. Mundlak, Larson, and Butzer examine over an extended period the growth consequences for agriculture in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand. Despite geographic proximity, similar climate, and other shared characteristics, gains in productivity and income differed significantly among the countries. The authors quantify these differences and examine their determinants. Mundlak, Larson, and Butzer find that the new technology changed the returns to fertilizers, irrigated land, and capital, all of which proved scarce to varying degrees. Complementing technology-related changes in factor use were investments--public and private--driven in part by policy. The authors find that factor accumulation played an important role in output growth and that accumulations from policy-driven investments in human capital and public infrastructure were important sources of productivity gains. They conclude that policies that ease constraints on factor markets and promote public investment in people and infrastructure provide the best opportunities for agricultural growth. This paper--a product of Rural Development, Development Research Group--is part of a larger effort in the group to understand appropriate policies that promote rural development. The study was funded by the Bank's Research Support Budget under the research project "Dynamism of Rural Sector Development" (RPO 683-06).

Book Synopsis More Than the Soil by : Jonathan Rigg
Download or read book More Than the Soil written by Jonathan Rigg and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2001 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than the Soil focuses on the social, cultural, economic and technological processes that have transformed rural areas of Southeast Asia. The underlying premise is that rural lives and livelihoods in this region have undergone fundamental change. No longer can we assume that rural livelihoods are founded on agriculture; nor can we assume that people envisage their futures in terms of farming. The inter-penetration of the rural and urban, and the degree to which rural people migrate between rural and urban areas, and shift from agriculture to non-agriculture, raises fundamental questions about how we conceptualise the rural Southeast Asia and the households to be found there. The book makes extensive use of case study material to illustrate and support the arguments presented. There is also a conscious attempt to bridge the apllied-conceptual divide and to embed the Southeast Asian experience within the wider context of the rural South. Jonathan Rigg is a Lecturer in the Department of Geography, University of Durham. He has had a long-standing interest in rural development in Southeast Asia and has published widely on the subject with reference to the region.
