Provedor de dados: Depósito Institucional Abierto de Documentos Digitales del Colegio de Postgraduados (COLPOS DIGITAL )
Autores: Palma Raymundo, María Lidia.
En México, a partir de la modificación de la Ley de Aguas Nacionales en el 2004, en México es obligatorio destinar parte del agua de los ríos para usos ambientales. Esta agua que se debe dejar  que corra en el cauce del río se conoce como caudal ecológico. El reto es, por un lado, estimar cuánta agua debe corresponder al caudal ecológico. Por otro lado, que consecuencias sociales y económicas tendrá el quitar agua asignada actualmente a otros usuarios para destinarla como caudal ecológico. En este estudio se tuvo como objetivo estimar la disponibilidad de caudales ecológicos en la cuenca del Río Yautepec, en el estado de Morelos, así como los efectos económicos sobre los productores agrícolas, principales usuarios actuales del agua del río. Se utilizó el...

Evaluación del impacto económico de la industria azucarera en el estado de Morelos.
Provedor de dados: Depósito Institucional Abierto de Documentos Digitales del Colegio de Postgraduados (COLPOS DIGITAL )
Autores: Torrijos Almazán, Marcia Bell.
La producción de caña de azúcar es una de las principales actividades económicas en el ámbito agrícola nacional, sin embargo este sector opera con altos costos y bajos niveles de competitividad, con pocos o nulos incentivos a reconvertirse (SE, 2012). Uno de los principales problemas de la sociedad mexicana y en particular de la rural es la pobreza; en el Estado de Morelos, el 43.7% de la población se encuentra en situación de pobreza, a pesar de que de 33 municipios que lo conforman 20 son productores de caña de azúcar, una actividad económica importante; en ese contexto trasciende el hecho de evaluar el impacto económico de esta actividad en la entidad para determinar su contribución al crecimiento y desarrollo rural. Se evaluaron indicadores de...

Financial losses in pork supply chain: a study of the pre-slaughter handling impacts
Provedor de dados: Engenharia Agrícola
Autores: REIS,JOÃO G. M. DOS; MACHADO,SIVANILZA T.; SANTOS,RODRIGO C.; NÄÄS,IRENILZA DE A.; OLIVEIRA,RONE V.
Brazil is amongst the world’s largest swine producers. However, its competitiveness has been vulnerable due to a lack of cooperation between the supply chain players. This condition makes the financial losses to be evaluated taking into account only an individual node, and most of the time, these damages are imputed by swine breeders. Living weight losses occur between the farm to slaughterhouses, and the main cause of these losses is the pre-slaughter handling, especially during animal transportation. In this research, we analyzed the pre-slaughter handling in a swine farm in Brasilândia, MS, Brazil. Analyzed data were provided by five slaughterhouses (farm clients) from the studied region, in which it was considered living weight losses, carcass...

Between 2006 and 2008, Ifremer, in collaboration with the polling institute BVA, implemented a pilot survey of french recreational fisheries. The aim of the survey was to assess the overall population involved in this activity, taking into account the diversity of recreational fishing practices, from fish and shellfish gathering on the seashore to angling and spearfishing. The study was designed to provide first estimates of fishing effort, catches and landings, and economic impacts of recreational fishing. The protocol implemented was two-step. First, a telephone survey of french households, based on a sampling frame of the entire french population of people aged 15+, was carried out to assess the population of fishers and give a first general view of the...

Évaluation des conséquences économiques de la gestion des risques sanitaires liés aux proliférations phytoplanctoniques marines
Provedor de dados: Institutional Archive of Ifreme (ArchiMer)
Autores: Ami, Dominique; Rochaix, Lise.
General introduction: The setting up of monitoring networks for coastal water quality of the REPHY type by IFREMER was taken from a public health standpoint and fits broadly in with a principle of precaution regarding eating shellfish meant for human consumption. The benefits to be compared with the costs of managing the REPHY network (estimated at FF7.4 million in 1995) are therefore first and foremost the reduction of the risk of poisoning and can be captured by subtracting the sanitation costs that are associated with them. Evaluating these direct benefits is, however, no easy task. The network leads in fact to the reduction of occurrences of poisoning such that the epidemiological data on which such a calculation should be founded diminishes over time....

La connaissance aussi bien que la gestion des écosystèmes marins suppose de disposer d'un réferentiel d'indicateurs et de mesures capable d'informer sur l'état du milieu. Le zonage, c'est-à-dire le découpage en zones géographiques, participe de la construction de ce réferentiel, notamment lorsqu'il permet ensuite la mise en place de réseaux de mesure pour la surveillance de la qualité du milieu littoral, dans un souci d'observation pour la gestion opérationnelle de ce milieu (politiques d'occupation des espaces, usages différents des espaces côtiers). Le principe du zonage est ancien (Morel, 1996) et peut varier en complexité selon qu'une seule variable descriptive est utilisée, comme dans le cas du zonage thématique basé sur la géographie physique et...

Incidences des épisodes d'efflorescences de micro algues toxiques sur les écosystèmes et sur les pêcheries de coquillages en baie de Douarnenez
Provedor de dados: Institutional Archive of Ifreme (ArchiMer)
Autores: Thebaud, Olivier; Veron, Gerard; Fifas, Spyros.
The commercial fishery for wedge clam, or telline (Donax trunculus) in the bay of Douarnenez in France started in the early 1980ies. During twenty years, the activity has developed, from an opportunistic fishery, into a regular fishing enterprise for 36 fishermen, who derive from it most, if not all, of their revenue. The fishery is nowadays strictly regulated. It is subject to natural variations in the productivity of clam stocks, in relation with meteorological conditions which can strongly affect the stocks.  The bay of Douarnenez has been experiencing regular blooms of harmful algae, both of species leading to shellfish poisoning for human consumption, such as Dinophysis (Diarrhoeic Shellfish Poisoning) and Pseudo-nitzschia (Amnesic Shellfish...

Autores: Gerard, Andre.
Introduction: To develop its 2005-2009 strategic plan, IFREMER made two prospective analysis studies in 2003: a thematic prospective analysis and a sectorial prospective analysis. The "aquafarming" sectorial prospective analysis, based primarily on an IFREMER idea, particularly brought to light the difference in nature of problems posed by the future evolution of shellfish farming, fish farming and other stockbreeding (pearl farming and shrimp farming). In addition, the prospective analyses made on an international scale by the FAO (2002, 2004) and the IFPRI (2003) emphasise that the development of aqua farming is the required condition for satisfying world demand of consumer aquatic products, given the foreseeable weak growth, indeed, the stagnation of...

The social and economic impact of aquaculture : a European review
Provedor de dados: Institutional Archive of Ifreme (ArchiMer)
Autores: Neiland, A.e.; Shaw, S.a.; Bailly, Denis.
This paper undertakes a preliminary evaluation of the social and economic impact of aquaculture from both empirical and theoretical standpoints. Drawing initially on background information collected for the Commission of the European Communities (CEC) in a recent study by the European Association of Fisheries Economists (EAFE), a number of important indicators and trends (e.g. production, employment, market structure) are examined which indicate that aquaculture is of increasing significance in many regions. Whilst some socio-economic information is available for ail European countries, this information base is weak in comparison to that for biological and technical aspects of aquaculture and does not permit a comprehensive evaluation at the present time....

Economic damage caused by spittlebugs (Homoptera: Cercopidae) in Colombia: a first approximation of impact on animal production in Brachiaria decumbens pastures
Provedor de dados: Neotropical Entomology
Autores: HOLMANN,FEDERICO; PECK,DANIEL C.
Using a simulation model as an analysis tool, the economic impact of spittlebugs in pastures of Colombia was quantified in terms of animal production. Three levels of abundance (10, 25, 50 adults/m²) and farm area affected (25, 50, 100%) were evaluated using data obtained in Brazil for Notozulia entreriana (Berg) on Brachiaria decumbens Stapf. The model considered dual-purpose production systems in two contrasting ecosystems: (1) the dry tropics, characterized by a well defined, 6-month rainy season and (2) the humid tropics, characterized by uniform rainfall distribution throughout the year. Compared to healthy pastures, stocking rate, milk and meat productivity decreased 1-8, 8-34 and 38-54%, respectively, at low, intermediate and high abundance levels,...

Autores: Mora,   Cristina; Menozzi,   Davide.
The objective of this study is to present the results of a research carried out on a group of farms involved in pig fattening (48 farms) to evaluate the economic impact of implementing human and animal health regulation. The five types considered in any case represent 90-95% of the total health costs, there are therefore economies of scale and considering the types of expenditure, veterinary medicines have a strong incidence on fattening farms, together with medicated feed for consumption on the farm and the control of Aujeszky's disease. The overall health costs have on average reached the 2% of total costs and the same value of the net income.

Autores: Coon,   Randal C.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
A survey of firms involved in lignite mining and/or conversion resulted in estimates of their expenditures to in-state entities. An input-output model was applied to estimate secondary and total impacts of the direct expenditures. Direct expenditures totaled $806.8 million for 2007 and were estimated at $995.4 million for 2008. The total (direct plus secondary) contribution to the North Dakota economy was estimated to be $2.4 billion for 2007 and $2.8 billion for 2008. State tax revenues resulting from industry activities totaled $89 million in 2007, and industry direct employment totaled 3,882. In addition, economic activity resulting from the industry was estimated to support more than 21,000 jobs in other sectors of the state economy.

THE IMPACT OF KNAPWEED ON MONTANA'S ECONOMY
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Hirsch,   Steven A.; Leitch,   Jay A.
The economic impact of three invasive, exotic weeds--diffuse, spotted, and Russian knapweed (Centaurea diffusa, C. maculosa, and Acroptilon repens)--on Montana's economy was estimated using a procedure developed for another invasive weed species.  Published data and that from a survey of county weed boards were used to estimate direct negative impacts of over $14 million annually due to infestation of over 2 million acres of rangeland and wildland.  This amounts to about $10.63 on each infested grazing land acre and $3.95 on each infested wildland acre.  Direct plus secondary economic impacts, estimated using an input-output model, are about $42 million annually, which could support over 500 jobs in the state's economy. This first approximation suggests...

In almost all types of vegetation there are species that can cause toxicity to livestock that consumes. The poisoning caused problems in many different animals can affect reproduction, weight gain, and even death. These problems are causing economic losses in the livestock industry it is necessary to quantify but very difficult to achieve it. In Sonora, has been diagnosed rangeland of overgrazing, which manifests itself in a deterioration that diminishes the species desirable and undesirable increases, among these plants are toxic. We have identified 184 species that are toxic and within them there are 59 species that consume livestock and cause problems.

Economic Impact of a Ban on the Use of Over-the-Counter Antibiotics in U.S. Swine Rations
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Hayes,   Dermot J.; Jensen,   Helen H.; Backstrom,   Lennart; Fabiosa,   Jacinto F.
Antibiotic drugs are currently used in 90 percent of starter feeds, 75 percent of grower feeds, more than 50 percent of finishing feeds and at least 20 percent of sow feeds (USDA/APHIS). A ban on the use of feed-grade antibiotics would lead to changes in production processes and practices in production of pork, and hence would have an economic impact on the U.S. pork industry and pork market. This study considers the economic effects of a ban in pork production, with no change of regulation on other meats. The analysis uses a set of technical assumptions that are based in large part on a historical analysis of how the Swedish ban influenced the Swedish pork industry to anticipate the potential economic effects. A range of cases is examined. The cases use...

Community hospital administrators in North Dakota were surveyed to determine the amount and type of expenditures made to North Dakota entities in 1997.  Estimates of net revenues retained within the state were also solicited.  Forty-two of the 44 community hospitals in the state responded.  Economic activity from hospitals in the state was divided into two groups--community hospitals and all hospitals.  In-state expenditures for Federal and Native American facilities were generated from survey results. Expenditures and returns (direct impacts) from community hospitals in the state were about $832 million in 1997.  When the six military, Veteran, state, and tribal hospitals were included, industry-wide direct impacts increased to $904 million. Input-output...

Aerobic Rice: Benefits without going to the Gym?
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Bayot,   Ruvicyn; Templeton,   Deborah J.
Rice, a staple food for over 70% of Asians, is also the single biggest user of water, requiring 2‐3 times more water per unit of grain produced than crops such as wheat and maize. With growing populations, increased urbanisation and environmental degradation, the supply of fresh water is depleting. Recognising the water constraints to rice yield, the aim of the project entitled ‘Developing a System of Temperate and Tropical Aerobic Rice (STAR) in Asia’ was to develop water‐efficient aerobic rice technologies. This paper highlights the success of that project.

The commercial bison industry is relatively new to North Dakota.  There were an estimated 23,000 head of bison in North Dakota in 1998, and these animals were found in 47 of 53 counties.  The purpose of this study was to estimate the economic contribution of the bison industry to the North Dakota economy.  A survey of North Dakota bison producers and processors was conducted to provide estimates of direct impacts of bison activities within the state.  Secondary economic impacts were determined using the North Dakota Input-Output Model.  The direct impact of production and processing of bison in North Dakota in 1998 was estimated at $23 million.  The $23 million in direct impacts generated an additional $47 million in secondary impacts within the state. The...

Potential economic impacts of providing for Aquaculture Management Areas in Canterbury
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Meyer-Hubbert,   Gerit; Cullen,   Ross.
This research estimates the commercial costs and benefits associated with selected aquaculture projects in the Canterbury region. Mussel farming employment will most likely be generated in coastal communities that at present have few employment opportunities. These communities are likely to profit as well from increased infrastructure needs for the marine farming enterprise. Any development in the marine farming industry will take many years to reach full potential. This means that the costs and benefits from increased marine farming activities will be staggered over a number of years. It is acknowledged that the gains might be achieved at different locations than the losses occur. The effects on other stakeholders are often uncertain.

Autores: Hodur,   Nancy M.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
A pharmacist shortage, mail and internet competition, thinning margins, and third-party payer issues are some of the issues challenging community pharmacies.  Those challenges have raised concerns about the long-term viability of independent community pharmacies, especially those in rural areas.  In addition to a pharmacy's role in the delivery of prescription drugs, community pharmacies also play an important role in the state and local economies, again, especially in rural communities.  Community pharmacies consistently have been classified as a business that provides essential services.  Because of the issues and challenges facing community pharmacies and their role as an essential service, this study was undertaken to quantify the economic contribution...

Assessing the economic impact of redistributing water within a catchment: A case study of the Musi Catchment in the Krishna Basin in India
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Davidson,   Brian; Hellegers,   Petra J.G.J.; Samad,   Madar.
The aim in this paper was to present the details of an economic modeling exercise conducted on the Musi Catchment of the Krishna Basin. The model has the unique characteristic of being able to value the water used on individual crops and in different regions. Thus, the individual values of water used to produce different crops, grown over two different seasons and over five very different regions within a catchment, were determined. This is a significant improvement over previous attempts, where a single value of water in a catchment was derived regardless of what it is used for, when it was used and where it used in the catchment. In addition to the agricultural valuation process, some account was made for the other uses of water and how they should be...

In  response  to  energy  security  concerns,  alternative  energy  programs  such  as  biomass  energy  systems  are  being developed to provide energy in the 21st century. For the biomass industry to expand, a variety of feedstocks will need to be utilized. Large scale production of bioenergy crops could have significant impacts on the United States agricultural sector in terms of quantities, prices and production location of traditional crops as well as farm income. Though a number of scenarios were examined to study the impact of bioenergy crop production on the agricultural sector, two cropland scenarios are presented in this report. Under the wildlife management scenario, the analysis indicates that, at $30/dry  ton  (dt)  for  switchgrass,...

IMPLAN UNDERSTATES AGRICULTURAL INPUT-OUTPUT MULTIPLIERS: AN APPLICATION TO POTENTIAL AGRICULTURAL/GREEN INDUSTRY DROUGHT IMPACTS IN COLORADO
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: McKean,   John R.; Spencer,   William P.
Synthesized input-output models are widely used by industry and government economists. The IMPLAN program is popular because it provides user access to the base data so that modifications can be made. The Washington survey-based model and IMPLAN for Washington State are compared, and differences in multipliers are traced to differences in final payments leakages. An adjustment technique for IMPLAN is demonstrated. An application is made to a Colorado potential drought impact analysis. More than 51,000 part- and full-time jobs and $1.6 billion of household income are at stake in the Colorado farm and "green industry" sectors.

Autores: Bangsund,   Dean A.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
Agriculture remains a major component in the North Dakota economy, yet many activities within the agricultural industry remain unquantified.  The purpose of this study was to measure the economic contribution of the soybean industry to the North Dakota economy. Expenditures and returns from soybean production, grain handling, and transportation were estimated to calculate the direct economic impacts from soybean activities.  Secondary economic impacts were estimated using the North Dakota Input-Output Model. Since 1995, soybean acreage in the United States has increased substantially in nontraditional row-crop regions, such as those found in some parts of North Dakota.  Soybean acreage in the state has increased 135 percent since 1995, and 210 percent...

Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Bangsund,   Dean A.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
Agricultural industries in small geographical areas with limited acreage tend to be overlooked by those not associated with the growing region or industry.  Sugarbeets continue to be produced in a relatively small geographic area and with relatively limited acreage in North Dakota and Minnesota.  These factors, along with continued debate over policies affecting domestic sugar industries and recent industry expansions, help justify a continued assessment of the economic importance of the sugarbeet industry to the regional economy.  Revenues from sugarbeet production and expenditures by processors to North Dakota and Minnesota entities in fiscal 1997 represented the direct economic impacts from the industry.  Expenditure information was provided by...

Estimating the Economic Impact of Telemedicine in a Rural Community
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Whitacre,   Brian E.
One commonly discussed benefit of broadband access in rural America is the potential for telemedicine visits that allow rural residents to take advantage of urbanized medical services. While the primary benefit of telemedicine is often viewed as improved health care access, the availability of these services also offers significant economic contributions to the local community. Site visits to 24 rural hospitals of varying size over a four-state area in the Midwest provide information to develop a methodology for estimating telemedicine’s economic impact. Using this technique, telemedicine services contribute between $20,000 and $1.3M annually to these local economies, with an average of $522,000.

Estimate of the Potential Adoption of Genetically Modified Cotton by Farmers in Southern Spain and its Economic Implications
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Gomez-Barbero,   Manuel; Rodgriguez-Cerezo,   Emilio.
This paper analyses the potential adoption and economic on-farm impact of Bt cotton in the Andalusia region (southern Spain). Survey data have shown that, on average, 58% of the responding farmers know about genetically modified (GM) cotton. Another outcome of the survey is that 95% of the farmers declaring that they know about GM cotton would be willing to grow Bt cotton. In the main cotton-producing districts, farmers' attitudes are positive, and they would be willing to adopt the technology. In areas where the crop is more important, the farmers who are willing to adopt Bt cotton represent over 75% of the area under cotton. As regards the on-farm economic impact resulting from a potential adoption, the assessment is that savings on the cost of direct...

This article updates a paper which I wrote in 1988 about the economic value of biodiversity conservation on the Otago Peninsula and the scope for expanding wildlife tourism there. After outlining different ways to measure the economic importance of wildlife, I use economic impact analysis to measure the current importance of wildlife tourism on the Otago Peninsula. However, it is also pointed out that the activities of bodies such as the Yellow-eyed Penguin Trust and the Department of Conservation have positive regional economic impacts. The specific methods and assumptions used for this economic analysis are outlined. The gross annual turnover of enterprises directly involved in the viewing of wildlife on the Peninsula is of the order of $6.5 million per...

This paper takes an empirical approach to determining the effect that a critical access hospital (CAH) has on local retail activity.  Previous research on the relationship between hospitals and economic development has primarily focused on single-case, multiplier oriented analysis.  The positive empirical results provide additional evidence on the far-reaching economic development impacts of CAHs.  The results also emphasize the importance of continued support for these rural institutions, including federal and state subsidies.

With the use of this dynamic spreadsheet model, tourism managers can gain valuable insight into tourism and special events.  This insight can help them plan future events or evaluate whether the costs of producing these events are justified by the benefits.  Visitor spending from outside the county creates direct sales in the local economy.  Each dollar of direct sales adds indirect and induced spending in the county.  Besides these impacts, visitor spending produces labor income and jobs for residents in the county.

A MODEL OF THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF AFRICAN HORSE SICKNESS TO THE EQUINE BREEDING INDUSTRY IN SOUTH AFRICA
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Brooks,   Laura.
A deterministic model for the economic impact of African Horse Sickness (AHS) on the equine breeding industry was developed for South Africa. It was applied to the case of the 2007/2008 outbreak of AHS in the Eastern Cape as a pilot application of the model, using data from breeders in the province. It was concluded that the deterministic model’s extension to include other areas of equine livelihoods could be effective in exposing the need for further research into the control and treatment of AHS in South Africa.

To Fund or Not to Fund: Assessment of the Potential Impact of a Regional Promotion Campaign
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Carpio,   Carlos E.; Isengildina-Massa,   Olga.
This paper develops a framework for assessing the potential economic impact of a regional promotion campaign combining contingent valuation methods with a partial displacement equilibrium model. The proposed approach is applied to the evaluation of the potential economic impact of the locally grown campaign in South Carolina. Results reveal that the first season of the promotion campaign increased consumer willingness to pay for produce by 3.4%. The change in consumer preferences and the corresponding shift in demand increased producer surplus by $3.09 million. This economic benefit, combined with the 2007 promotion campaign investment, resulted in a benefit-cost ratio of 6.18.

Input-Output Analysis with Public Policy Objectives: A Case Study of the Georgia Cotton Industry
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Flanders,   Archie; Smith,   Nathan B.; McKissick,   John C.
Farm bill legislation directed at agricultural commodities contributes to economies of rural areas. This research quantifies the economic impacts of the Georgia cotton industry for the U.S. economy. A cotton industry model with cotton and peanut acreage is utilized with IMPLAN to estimate impacts. The Georgia cotton industry creates 4% more tax revenues for federal, state, and local governments than it receives in commodity support payments. Stochastic simulation analysis indicates that the Georgia cotton industry is not likely to remain viable without government payments.

ECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION OF THE SUGARBEET INDUSTRY IN MINNESOTA, NORTH DAKOTA, AND EASTERN MINNESOTA
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Bangsund,   Dean A.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
Agricultural industries in small geographical areas with limited acreage tend to be overlooked by those not associated with the growing region or industry.  Sugarbeets continue to be produced in a relatively small geographic area and on relatively limited acreage in Minnesota, North Dakota, and eastern Montana.  These factors, along with continued debate over policies affecting domestic sugar industries and recent industry expansions, help justify a continued assessment of the economic importance of the sugarbeet industry to the regional economy.  Revenues from sugarbeet production and expenditures by processors to Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana entities in fiscal 2003 represented the direct economic impacts from the industry.  Expenditure...

MIGRANT FARM WORKERS ON VIRGINIA'S EASTERN SHORE: AN ANALYSIS OF ECONOMIC IMPACTS
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Sills,   Erin O.; Alwang,   Jeffrey Roger; Driscoll,   Paul J.
The economic impact of migrant farmworkers on an agriculture-dependent region is investigated.  The direct effects of inflows of state and federal dollars for migrant services, and production of high-valued commodities are computed.  Indirect and induced effects are modelled through the use of the IMPLAN input output model.  Various alternatives to migrant labor are investigated, including production of less labor-intensive crops, acreage retirement, and contract H2A workers.  Migrants are found to create substantial economic activity on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

ECONOMIC IMPACT OF PRODUCTION AND PROCESSING OF IRRIGATED POTATOES IN CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Coon,   Randal C.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
Agricultural areas can be significantly impacted by high-value crops.  Irrigated potato production has significantly affected central North Dakota.  Interested growers in the Jamestown area recognized the need and the potential for irrigated potato production and processing, and eventually convinced a private company to build a processing plant to make frozen potato products from their irrigated potatoes.  Securing a private entity to process their product freed up capital for irrigation development and other potato enterprise purchases.  Economic impacts resulting from the addition of irrigated potatoes and associated processing were analyzed in this study.  This analysis is divided into two parts, construction/start-up (one-time) and operational...

ECONOMIC IMPACT OF RAILROAD ABANDONMENT: CARRINGTON-TO-TURTLE LAKE RAIL LINE; SUMMARY
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Honeyman,   Joel S.; Bangsund,   Dean A.; Leistritz,   F. Larry.
The Carrington-to-Turtle Lake rail line serves five agricultural shippers in a four county area in central North Dakota. Service on the line has been affected by recent embargoes, floods, and poor, deteriorating track conditions.  The line is a strong candidate for abandonment as efforts to rehabilitate the line have lacked financial support.  Prior to this study, a benefit/cost study, which compares benefits and costs of a rail line reconstruction, was performed for the rail line in an attempt to secure financial assistance for rehabilitation. Railroad abandonment impacts rural communities and local economies in a variety of ways.  Businesses that use rail for transportation usually experience a change in their shipping options.  Instead of sending and/or...

Irrigation water pricing between governmental policies and farmers’ perception: Implications for green-houses horticultural production in Teboulba (Tunisia)
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Chebil,   Ali; Frija,   Aymen; Thabet,   Chokri.
A positive mathematical programming model was constructed in this study to assess the effect of three water pricing scenarios on Teboulba’s agricultural production systems. The effects of these scenarios were estimated for three groups of farmers from three irrigated districts. Results show that water demand in group 1 remains inelastic until achieving the price of 0.20 TD. A price above this level decreases water consumption, farmer’s incomes as well as seasonal labor demand. For groups 2 and 3, the water demand curves remain highly inelastic even with a full cost recovery price. However, once reaching this last price, the model shows important income reductions reaching 20% of the current observed income. Moreover, a pricing policy aiming to recover...

The Impact of Foot and Mouth Disease Outbreaks in Taiwan and South Korea on the Red Meat Industries in Canada and the United States
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Charlebois,   Pierre; Gagne,   Stephan.
In addition to trade liberalization, other factors have contributed to the strong growth of red meat production in Canada since the end of the 1980s. In particular, the outbreaks of foot and mouth disease (FMD) in Taiwan and in South Korea eliminated two competitors in the Japanese market. This reduction in supply caused an increase in the price of hogs in the United States and Canada of 2.5% and 3% respectively during the 1997 to 2007 period. The higher price stimulated Canadian production by an average of 5%, and by 2% in the United States.  Annual agricultural farm receipts from the hog market were greater by an average of $CD 276 million (9%) for a grand total of $CD 3 billion over the 11 years. Moreover, the value added in the red meat processing...

Measuring the Local Economic Impact of Cooperatives
Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Zeuli,   Kimberly A.; Deller,   Steven C.
The ability to measure the economic importance of cooperatives to communities is not purely an academic question. Policy makers, cooperative organizations, and community development practitioners are increasingly asking for such information. The most commonly used methodology is input-output analysis. The limitations of input-output analysis when applied to cooperatives have not yet been comprehensively explained in the literature, although they significantly affect the application of the model as well as the interpretation of results. We discuss five issues that need to be addressed when using input-output models and suggest additional analysis that should be completed to gain an accurate assessment of the local economic impact of cooperatives.

Autores: Fernandes,Rogério Taygra Vasconcelos; Pinto,Aruza Rayana Morais; Fernandes,Raimunda Thyciana Vasconcelos; Oliveira,Jônnata Fernandes de; Novaes,José Luís Costa.
ABSTRACT: The extraction of sea salt depends on the occupation of large areas at the estuary banks, many of them inserted in Permanent Preservation Areas (PPAs). Thus, the objective was to evaluate the economic viability of Environmental Offsets (EO) as an alternative to the unoccupied PPAs in the saltworks. In order to do so, 27 solar saltworks installed in the region of the Brazilian White Coast were evaluated for the occupation of PPAs - measured using images from satellite, georeferenced, vectored with corresponding PPA bands generated - and estimated to EO (Impact Degree x Sum of the investments necessary to implement the project) and Economic Impact (Net Present Value, with long-term interest rate of 7%) of vacating PPAs. It was considered that EO...
