摘要:

AbstractBrazil's development into a major producer, crusher, and exporter of soybeans and soybean products formented an agribusiness complex of major proportions during the 1960s and 1970s. The soybean industry policy, in many ways, has had considerable impact on parts of rural Brazil. The Brazilian experience with the soybean industry provides an interesting example of an attempt by a country to integrate agribusiness with domestic social policies in a semi‐private economy which is developing rapidly. It also provides an example of government intervention at all levels of an industry— production, marketing, and export—in order to attain social and economic policy

摘要:

AbstractThe process of commodity grading is carried on to provide market opportunities, or to meet other market criteria. Grading systems also, however, have a cost to those who market a product. This study focuses on the interrelationship among the Canadian grain grading system, the operations of terminal grain elevators at Vancouver, and problems arising from these interrelationships. Evidence indicates the grain grading system affects throughput of the terminal elevators at Vancouver. The present system of grading wheat in Canada slows terminal throughput through delays in unloading, changes to equipment for grain cleaning, and by reducing usable storage space.

摘要:

AbstractMidterm effects of alternative quota adjustments on production, prices, and orchard retirements are simulated taking into account interseasonal effects between early and late varieties. Real world corroboration is accomplished through institutional and technical feedbacks and the recent agreement to expand quotas by 11,000 metric tons per year for the next four years.

摘要:

AbstractWe estimated a dynamic linear expenditure system for 22 subgroups of commodities using a time series of the Japanese family budget data for the last 22 years, and analyzed the factors affecting the changing demands. The proxy for changing tastes was specified as the square of time, taking into account accelerated effects of time trend on expenditures. It would reflect an acceleration of modernization in the mode of living. A demand matrix was established and the effect of changing tastes on each subgroup was measured in an annual rate of shift in demand. Policy implications of the results are discussed in some detail to obtain the long‐term prospects for the supply of food commodities in particula

摘要:

AbstractAn economic analysis of on‐farm feed resource development in two Egyptian villages identified a number of alternatives to increase livestock productivity. Two LP models helped explore scenarios related to feed, prices, introduction of new livestock technologies and effect of government policy at the farm level. The economic tradeoffs between draft and milk production appear important in developing strategies for improving livestock. This article identifies the need for better feed resource management at the farm level and suggests that private funds should be encouraged in marketing of new feeds. Local village organizations would benefit by more conscientious use of crop by‐produ

摘要:

AbstractExporting high‐valued products in general, and meat and meat products in particular, has not been a marketing alternative explored by many purveyors of such products, A series of interviews with executives of successful meat exporting firms was conducted to determine alternative successful strategies and methods of exporting meat and meat products. This article compiles their responses and provides a step‐by‐step summary of the meat export process from the decision to export to the actual mechanics of expo

摘要:

AbstractEnlargement of the European Community (EC), recent reforms of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), and structural policy changes in the Community have generated economic conditions whose combined long‐term effect will be a decrease in the demand for US agricultural exports to the EC. Factors such as the imposition of quotas for milk production and the integration of Spanish and Portuguese agricultural policies into the CAP and its Community preference principle have aggravated an apparent shift in demand for US farm exports. Consequently, these changes have contributed to the heated dispute over the future of US–EC agricultural tr

摘要:

AbstractThe Nigerian government responded after 1980 to decreased access to foreign exchange with policies to attract private domestic and foreign investment to its agricultural sector. The abolition of commodity boards and of state farms in 1986 signaled a break with past approaches to agricultural development, but the ineffectiveness of these institutions raises doubt about whether their loss will bring much change. The strongest incentives for increased investment in agriculture will come from currency devaluation and from severe limitations on food imports, raising domestic prices. The eventual response of agricultural production depends on how vigorously the government pursues this new direction in policy, but there are indications in the policies already selected that the benefits of private investment will not be widely shared.

摘要:

AbstractUnder the Third Convention between the European Community and 66 States in Africa, the Caribbean, and the Pacific, signed 8 December 1984 in Lomé, funds of more that $US 8500 have been made available, The contracting parties have given agricultural and rural cooperation highest priorities, with the aim of improving self‐sufficiency and food security in ACP countries while at the same time controlling desertification and protecting natural resources. As in previous Conventions, export of a number of agricultural commodities from ACP countries into the European Community is facilitated on a nonreciprocal bas
