Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Agricultural Economics written by Gail L. Cramer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 806 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook offers an up-to-date collection of research on agricultural economics. Drawing together scholarship from experts at the top of their profession and from around the world, this collection provides new insights into the area of agricultural economics. The Routledge Handbook of Agricultural Economics explores a broad variety of topics including welfare economics, econometrics, agribusiness, and consumer economics. This wide range reflects the way in which agricultural economics encompasses a large sector of any economy, and the chapters present both an introduction to the subjects as well as the methodology, statistical background, and operations research techniques needed to solve practical economic problems. In addition, food economics is given a special focus in the Handbook due to the recent emphasis on health and feeding the world population a quality diet. Furthermore, through examining these diverse topics, the authors seek to provide some indication of the direction of research in these areas and where future research endeavors may be productive. Acting as a comprehensive, up-to-date, and definitive work of reference, this Handbook will be of use to researchers, faculty, and graduate students looking to deepen their understanding of agricultural economics, agribusiness, and applied economics, and the interrelationship of those areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains the proceedings of the 5th international conference on chain and network management in agribusiness and the food industry. Papers will focus on the paradoxes caused by conflicting interests in the fields of economics and ethics, technology and environment, legislation and internationalisation, etc. The modern consumer demands highquality products, in broad assortments throughout the year, and for competitive prices. Society imposes constraints on companies in order to economize on the use of resources, ensure animal-friendly and safe production, and restrict pollution. Together with technological developments and increased international competition, these demands have changed the production, trade, and distribution of food products beyond recognition. Demand is no longer confined to local or regional supply. The food industry is now swiftly becoming an interconnected system with a large variety of complex relationships. This is changing the way food is brought to the market. Currently, even fresh produce shipped from halfway around the world can be offered at competitive prices. These developments are accompanied by national and international regulations and legislation in the area of food quality and safety. In response to these changes, business strategies must now focus not only on traditional economical and technological interests, but also on topical issues such as the safety and healthfulness of food products, animal friendliness, the environment, etc. To effectively address paradoxical demands facing businesses, many problems and opportunities must be approached from a multi-disciplinary perspective, and trade-offs must be made between different aspects of production, trade and the distribution of food.

Book Synopsis The Neoliberal Regime in the Agri-Food Sector by : Steven A. Wolf
Download or read book The Neoliberal Regime in the Agri-Food Sector written by Steven A. Wolf and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the last three decades, the Neoliberal regime, emphasising economic growth through deregulation, market integration, expansion of the private sector, and contraction of the welfare state has shaped production and consumption processes in agriculture and food. These institutional arrangements emerged from and advanced academic and popular beliefs about the virtues of private, market-based coordination relative to public, state-based problem solving. This book presents an informed, constructive dialogue around the thesis that the Neoliberal mode of governance has reached some institutional and material limits. Is Neoliberalism exhausted? How should we understand crisis applied to Neoliberalism? What are the opportunities and risks linked to the construction of alternatives? The book advances a critical evaluation of the evidence supporting claims of rupture of, or incursions into, the Neoliberal model. It also analyzes pragmatic responses to these critiques including policy initiatives, social mobilization and experimentation at various scales and points of entry. The book surveys and synthesizes a range of sociological frames designed to grapple with the concepts of regimes, systemic crisis and transitions. Contributions include historical analysis, comparative analysis and case studies of food and agriculture from around the globe. These highlight particular aspects of crisis and responses, including the potential for continued resilience, a neo-productivist return, as well as the emergence and scaling up of alternative models.
Book Synopsis VALUE CHAIN COORDINATION by : Sarah Rocker
Download or read book VALUE CHAIN COORDINATION written by Sarah Rocker and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public and policy interest in local and regional food systems remains strong in the U.S., but there is debate about strategies for food system development that will achieve economic development, equity and environmental goals. To address the continuing viability challenges facing small and mid-scale food producers, attention has recently shifted towards the potential importance of soft or social infrastructure through enhanced coordination of regional values-based food supply chains. This research offers an in-depth critical examination of value chain coordination through a mixed methods nested case study focused on the national and regional work of Food LINC (for Leveraging Investment through Network Coordination), a pilot initiative led by a partnership between the U.S. Department of Agriculture and an NGO, the Wallace Center that was launched in 2016. The research design centers on a focal national-level case study of Food LINC, including its support of value chain coordinators in 13 sites across the U.S. Examination of the national case study fills theoretical and applied gaps in understanding how value chain coordination work is organized and performed, while nested regional case studies in two of the 13 sites examine how coordination efforts contribute to developing relationships or social infrastructure for regional food value chains, through convening events that brought together value chain actors focused on mixed organic products and small grain and malt products in Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic U.S. cases, respectively.Drawing from organizational sociology, this study applies a process of legitimation framework to examine how concepts of value chain coordinator and value chain coordination are understood and function within Food LINC as new prototype strategies for agri-food development. This study further integrates network and development literatures on social infrastructure to frame the relationship-building that value chain coordinator professionals influence through organizing convening events in their respective regions. The nested case studies integrate social network analysis surveys and qualitative interviews to show how convening events foster embedded, horizontal and vertical tie formation among and between direct value chain actors and indirect, or support actors such as research, Extension, advocacy non-profits, and lenders. This study identifies contradictions and challenges within the notion of individual value chain coordinators, while finding that value chain coordination co-performed by multiple regionally-focused individuals and organizations may be a viable strategy for values-based supply chain development, and regional and entrepreneurial development more broadly, with caveats that the work is transitional and hybrid in nature.
Book Synopsis Developing Sustainable Food Value Chains by : David Neven
Download or read book Developing Sustainable Food Value Chains written by David Neven and published by Food & Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO). This book was released on 2014 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using sustainable food value chain development (SFVCD) approaches to reduce poverty presents both great opportunities and daunting challenges. SFVCD requires a systems approach to identifying root problems, innovative thinking to find effective solutions and broad-based partnerships to implement programmes that have an impact at scale. In practice, however, a misunderstanding of its fundamental nature can easily result in value-chain projects having limited or non-sustainable impact. Furthermore, development practitioners around the world are learning valuable lessons from both failures and successes, but many of these are not well disseminated. This new set of handbooks aims to address these gaps by providing practical guidance on SFVCD to a target audience of policy-makers, project designers and field practitioners. This first handbook provides a solid conceptual foundation on which to build the subsequent handbooks. It (1) clearly defines the concept of a sustainable food value chain; (2) presents and discusses a development paradigm that integrates the multidimensional concepts of sustainability and value added; (3) presents, discusses and illustrates ten principles that underlie SFVCD; and (4) discusses the potential and limitations of using the value-chain concept in food-systems development. By doing so, the handbook makes a strong case for placing SFVCD at the heart of any strategy aimed at reducing poverty and hunger in the long run.
