Comportamiento y formas de organización de la maquila agrícola en una región de agricultura altamente tecnificada
Provedor de dados: 32
Autores: Palacios Rangel, María Isabel.
La contratación en el valle de Culiacán, Sinaloa, de los servicios de mecanización, mejor conocida  con el nombre de maquila agrícola, es una actividad utilizada por un sector significativo de  productores agrícolas, tanto los de tipo empresarial como los de carácter campesino. Así, si bien  los grandes productores generalmente poseen maquinaria, algunos utilizan la maquila  regularmente, ampliándose el número de contratantes de los servicios de maquila agrícola entre  los medianos y, aún más, entre los pequeños productores, aunque sea en actividades mínimas y  puntuales dentro del ciclo agrícola. La maquila agrícola se presenta como un mecanismo de  integración de los productores al mercado, el cual les obliga a operar su escala productiva. Para...

Evaluación de tierras por capacidad de uso urbano en la zona periurbana de Villahermosa Tabasco.
Provedor de dados: 32
Autores: Morales Garduza, Marcos Antonio.
En planicies tropicales húmedas del Sureste de México, varias ciudades se asientan en tierras bajas sujetas a inundación, y como alternativa para la planeación de asentamientos humanos, se desarrolló una metodología que evalúa la capacidad de uso del suelo urbano. Mediante revisión bibliográfica se seleccionaron los factores ambientales que presentan mayores restricciones para el uso urbano como inundación, relieve, pendiente, suelo y uso del suelo. Se diseñó un modelo matemático que determina el Índice de Capacidad de Uso del Suelo Urbano (ICUSU) y se aplicó a la zona periurbana de la ciudad de Villahermosa, Tabasco, que ha sufrido varias inundaciones en las últimas décadas, por ubicarse en planicies fluviales y terrazas. Se generó cartografía a escala 1:...

A expansao da agricultura no Cerrado levou a ocupacao de areas de ocorrencia de Areias Quartzosas. Esses solos apresentam textura arenosa (85% ou mais de fracao areia). Areias Quartzosas ou Neossolos Quartzarenicos representam 15% da area do cerrado. Sao solos cuja estrutura e formada basicamente de graos de quartzo, sendo portanto altamente suscetiveis a erosao, apresentam drenagem excessiva, baixa retencao de agua e lixiviacao de nutrientes. Quimicamente sao pobres em bases trocaveis, alicos e a capacidade de troca cationica desses solos depende quase que exclusivamente da materia organica.

Droits à produire transférables : Le marché des concessions conchylicoles et ses effets non désirés
Provedor de dados: 5
Autores: Mongruel, Remi; Perez Agundez, José A.; Girard, Sophie.
This paper sets out an historical analysis of the rights-based system applied to the French shellfish-farming sector and a study of the current operating way of this system. It addresses the issue of the distribution of production means within an industry whose two main characteristics are the familial exploitation model and the specific social objectives like jobs creation in some coastal areas. The shellfish farming rights-based system has evolved toward a transferable production-rights system. However, the spontaneous emergence of a market for production-rights in the context of a weak administrative intervention is likely to generate unintended effects, whose occurrence is tested using quantitative and qualitative data. The final discussion searches...

CHINA'S FOOD AND AGRICULTURE: ISSUES FOR THE 21ST CENTURY
Provedor de dados: 31
China's impact on world agricultural markets in coming decades will depend on many factors. Growing income and transition to modern urban lifestyles will increase demand for all foods, but demand will shift toward meat and high-value products. WTO accession may increase openness of China's agricultural trade and allow more imports. An understanding of geographic variations of consumption, production, trade, and policy is critical to understanding the vast China market. Development of transportation infrastructure and market channels will make it easier for food products to reach consumers. China's approach to biotechnology and its reform of institutions for allocating land, labor, and water inputs have important implications for agricultural productive...

Autores: Fabiosa,   Jacinto F.; Beghin,   John C.; Dong,   Fengxia; Elobeid,   Amani E.; Tokgoz,   Simla; Yu,   Tun-Hsiang (Edward).
We quantify the emergence of biofuel markets and its impact on U.S. and world agriculture for the coming decade using the multi-market, multi-commodity international FAPRI (Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute) model. The model incorporates the trade-offs between biofuel, feed, and food production and consumption and international feedback effects of the emergence through world commodity prices and trade. We examine land allocation by type of crop, and pasture use for countries growing feedstock for ethanol (corn, sorghum, wheat, sugarcane, and other grains) and major crops competing with feedstock for land resources such as oilseeds. We shock the model with exogenous changes in ethanol demand, first in the United States, then in Brazil, China,...

The paper analyzes the different characteristics of peasant issues formed by connections between peasants and land at different historical stages, and offers a reference for us to look squarely at peasant issues in the reality. The characteristics of peasant issues with land as the inherent feature are: the degree of connection decides the classification and policies of peasants; the private ownership of land decides the political status and influences of peasants; the inherence of private connections with land determines the future of peasants. The characteristics of peasant issues with land as the core value are: the peasant issues with land as the core is the key to victory of new-democratic revolution; the peasant issues with land as the core is the...

What determines the Czech land market prices? Some regional findings
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Medonos,   Tomas; Vilhelm,   Vaclav; Hruska,   Martin; Jelinek,   Ladislav.
The paper deals with the analysis of market land prices that were collected from land purchased contracts in the Czech Republic. Regression model was used to identify determinants explaining variability of market prices between 2008 and 2009. It was found out that type of plantation, region, type of buyers, plot size, distance to regional city or number of parcels play significant role. These factors explain more than a half of variance in land price. Quality of land that was expressed through administrative price has significant effect on market price. Yet, such effect became less import in regions nearby cities (e.g. Prague and Olomouc), where the market land price is significantly influenced by the distance to the district city. Land reform, however has...

Security of Widows’ Access to Land in the Era of HIV/AIDS: Panel Survey Evidence from Zambia
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Chapoto,   Antony; Jayne,   Thomas S.; Mason,   Nicole M.
Beyond the obvious catastrophic effects of the HIV/AIDS pandemic on mortality, demographic changes, and the suffering of individuals and their families, we are still only learning about the complex longer-term effects of the pandemic on poverty and vulnerability. For example, the HIV/AIDS pandemic has substantially increased the number of widow-headed households in Africa. A huge number of conceptual and qualitative studies highlight gender inequalities in property rights, and the difficulties that widows and their dependents face in retaining access to land after the death of their husbands. HIV/AIDS has undoubtedly exacerbated such problems. However, there remains limited quantitative evidence using representative survey data on the extent to which...

Security of Widows’ Access to Land in the Era of HIV/AIDS: Panel Survey Evidence from Zambia (revised version)
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Chapoto,   Antony; Jayne,   Thomas S.; Mason,   Nicole M.
The view that widows and their dependents face greater livelihood risks in the era of HIV/AIDS is indeed supported by nationally-representative survey results from Zambia. Efforts to safeguard widows’ rights to land through land tenure innovations involving community authorities may be an important component of social protection, poverty alleviation, and HIV/AIDS mitigation strategies. Several of the findings reported show the influence of local traditional authorities in affecting the extent to which widows are able to retain land. Increased government commitment to ensure security of widows’ access to land is another approach, but initial evaluations of government efforts provide mixed evidence (see Izumi, 2006). Government decrees appear to have little...

RESULTS OF THE NORTH DAKOTA LAND VALUATION MODEL FOR THE 2001 AGRICULTURAL REAL ESTATE ASSESSMENT
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Aakre,   Dwight G.; Vreugdenhil,   Harvey G.
This report summarizes the results of the North Dakota Land Valuation Model. This model is used annually to estimate average land values by county, based on the value of production produced on that land. The county land values developed from this procedure form the basis for the 2001 valuation of agricultural land for assessment of real estate taxes. The average all land value from this analysis is multiplied by the total acres of agricultural land on the county abstract to determine each county's total agricultural land value. The State Board of Equalization compares this value with the total value assessed to agricultural property in each county. Each county is required by state statute to assess a total value of agricultural property within 5 percent of...

Land Preservation in British Columbia: An Empirical Analysis of the Factors Underlying Public Support and Willingness to Pay
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Androkovich,   Robert A.; Desjardins,   Ivan; Tarzwell,   Gordon; Tsogaris,   Peter.
This study extends previous empirical research on land preservation by considering an actual land preservation scheme, the agricultural land reserve in British Columbia, Canada. The reserve was established in 1973 to ensure that development did not occur on the province’s most productive agricultural land. ‘To ensure that local food production is maintained,’ ‘the economic importance of British Columbia’s agricultural sector,’ and ‘to protect the environment’ are the most important factors that underlie support for the reserve. Aggregate, provincewide willingness to pay to maintain the land reserve is substantial, with our most conservative estimate being Can$91.18 million per year.

1. The percentage of households that are headed by widows in rural Zambia increased from 9.4 % to 12.3% between 2001 and 2004. 2. Within 1 to 3 years after the death of their husbands, widow-headed households, on average, controlled 35 percent less land than what they had prior to their husband’s death. 3. To some extent, older widows are protected against loss of land compared to younger widows. 4. Women in relatively wealthy households are particularly vulnerable to losing land after the death of their husbands. 5. Widows whose family has kinship ties to the village authorities are less likely to face a severe decline in landholding size after the death of their husbands. 6. Widows in patrilineal and matrilineal villages are equally likely to lose their...

Access to Land and Poverty Reduction in Rural Zambia: Connecting the Policy Issues
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Jayne,   Thomas S.; Zulu,   Ballard; Kajoba,   Gear; Weber,   Michael T.
Key Policy Message: - Despite having relatively low population densities, inadequate access to land is one of the major causes of rural poverty in Zambia. - The apparent paradox of inadequate access to land for many rural households in a country of low population density is partially reconciled when taking into account that economically viable arable land requires at least some degree of access to basic services, water, road infrastructure, and markets. The basic public investments to make settlement economically viable have yet been made in many areas of Zambia. - Depending of future land allocation policy, access to good quality land with a market potential may become increasingly beyond the reach of many small-scale farm households, making it more...

Uncertain Land Availability and Perceived Biases in Investment Decisions: The Case of Dutch Dairy Farms
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Feinerman,   Eli; Peerlings,   Jack H.M.
Uncertainty about the possibility of acquiring land can be rather large in the EU for sectors like dairy farming. Farm-level investment decisions are commonly made ex-ante when the farmer is not certain about the possibility of purchasing land. This possibility is realized only in a future period. In this paper, we have developed and applied a simple two-period model in which a profit-maximizing farmer, facing uncertainty about the possibility of acquiring land, had to choose the optimal mix of capital (buildings) investment and land endowment. We have shown that commonly "observed" biases towards non-optimal investment decisions are not necessarily justified. Rather, these perceived biases may be the result of evaluating investment decisions without...

Economic Liberalization and Rural Land and Labour Markets in India: A Study
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gandhi,   Vasant P.
The paper examines the rural land and labour markets in the context of economic liberalization in India. Land and labour are the two fundamental resources available to the rural people for income generation. The access to land and to employment for labour become basic determinants of well-being for the rural households. Reforms are often seen as hostile to rural areas and the poor, although they should be beneficial not only for overall growth, but also rural growth and poverty alleviation. The study based on primary household data examines the land and labour markets in the reform period and the underlying linkages of these to different characteristics of the household. The study finds that over the reform period in India the land markets are leading to...
