O COMPORTAMENTO DA POPULAÇÃO RURAL E DO EMPREGO NA AGRICULTURA NO ESTADO DE MATO GROSSO DO SUL, NO PERÍODO DE 1998 A 2006 AgEcon
Vieira, Rosele Marques; Vareiro, Luiz Ronald; Ilha, Adayr da Silva.
A agricultura brasileira vem sofrendo grandes transformações com relação à mecanização das atividades agrícolas e, conseqüentemente, vem afetando o nível de empregos no setor rural, considerando que estas transformações se intensificaram recentemente, devido a um processo crescente de urbanização, de forma tal que a pressão modernizadora na agricultura se responsabilizou pela eliminação de postos de trabalhos agrícolas e que se traduz pela criação de empregos/ocupações não-agrícolas no setor. O objetivo deste artigo é analisar o comportamento da população rural e do emprego na agricultura no estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, especificamente as atividades agrícolas e não-agrícolas, dando ênfase à questão do novo rural, no período de 1998 a 2006. Conforme os...

A Mosaic Type of Development: The Agri-Food Districts Experience in Italy AgEcon
Brasili, Cristina; Fanfani, Roberto.
The Italian Industrial Districts (IDs) are now considered in the national and international literature as one of the main factors of the successful and rapid industrial development of Italy after the Second World War. In this paper we outline the general characteristics of the IDs approach and then the distinctive figures of the agrifood districts. A mosaic type of development characterised the geographical distribution of the different agrifood districts in the Italian experience. The different origins of agrifood districts often determines their production and structural characteristics of firms, with a relevant role of SMEs. In many cases, these districts originated from handcraft traditions and specific local demand. Their specialized production is...

Deforestation in Sub- Sahara Africa AgEcon
Diarrassouba, Malick; Boubacar, Inoussa.
According to FAO (2005) about 13 million hectares of the word’s forest are lost due to deforestation. Naoto (2006) found Africa to lead the list of countries with the highest rate of deforestation. This worrisome situation is further aggravated by the possible negative impacts of climate change due to an increase in the mean global temperature. Evidence supports that Africa is most likely to suffer the most the devastating impacts of natural calamities such as droughts and floods. This paper sought to evaluate the causes of deforestation in 27 Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries. Our model uses annual data spanning from 1990 to 2004. Trade and urban population tend to be associated with a decline in deforestation. On the other hand, we found strong...

Assessing the Potential for Payments for Watershed Services to Reduce Poverty in Guatemala AgEcon
Pagiola, Stefano; Zhang, Wei; Colom, Ale.
Payments for Environmental Services (PES) are being increasingly used as conservation instruments, particularly in Latin America. PES programs seek to capture part of the benefits derived from environmental services and channel them to natural resource managers who generate these services, thus increasing their incentive to conserve them. Many have assumed that these payments would go mostly to poor land users, and thus contribute to poverty reduction. There has been little empirical verification of this assumption to date, however. The PES approach was conceptualized as a mechanism to improve the efficiency of natural resource management, and not as a mechanism for poverty reduction. Pagiola et al. (2005) identified three main questions regarding the...

Current factors of insurance in agriculture AgEcon
Bokusheva, Raushan; Heidelbach, Olaf.
This discussion paper is our response to numerous questions and the desire of our counterparts from the CIS countries to receive more up-to-date information about insurance in agriculture. Accordingly, we have tried to shed light on the main aspects of insurance as one tool of risk management in agriculture. Thus, our purpose is to give the reader information on principles and potential of insurance, its main problems and possible solutions. Additionally, this paper provides a comparative overview of the presently most widespread insurance schemes.

Enhancing sustainable development of diverse agriculture in Indonesia AgEcon
Siregar, Masdjidin; Suryadi, Muhammad.
This report is the outcome of the first phase of the AGRIDIV project (Identification of pulling factors for enhancing the sustainable development of diverse agriculture in selected Asian countries), which was carried out in 2003-2004. Based on the availability of secondary data, five major CGPRT crops grown in Indonesia are studied in detail to examine the sustainable development of diverse agriculture. The crops include maize, soybean, groundnut, cassava, potato and sweet potato. In addition, rice, as the major staple food in Indonesia, is included and rice-related policies affect resource allocation and therefore affect the development of CGPRT crops.

Modeling Agricultural Innovation in a Rapidly Developing Country: The Case of Chinese Pesticide Industry AgEcon
Shi, Guanming; Pray, Carl E..
Technology and innovation play an increasingly important role in the economic development of both developed and developing countries. We investigate how policy and market factors influence firms’ (or other potential innovators’) decisions on innovation or imitation by developing a conceptual model and then empirically testing it using pesticide innovation data from a rapidly developing country, China. We find that the government encouraged local innovation by opening regions to more international trade, more investment in public research and education, strengthening intellectual property right (IPR) enforcement, and limiting the role of foreign inventors. However, the role of the extension of patent life in the early 1990s has little impact. Theory and...
