Cooperation is looked upon favorably because it connotes collective economic organization without duress or exploitation. This conceptualization may underlie most thinking about the place of cooperative organization in today’s society and the modern economy. Cooperation organizes economic activity on terms of equality at any stratum in the vertical sequence of producing and marketing farm products. Cooperatives’ government must no only be viable and functional but must incorporate democratic values. Boards of directors must be attuned to their members and effectively in control. The only valid defense of cooperatives is that they give reality to all that is good in cooperation. |

The development of farmers' producer co-operatives, in the privet sector, can make a significant contribution to the improvements that are urgently required in agricultural production of Uzbekistan. Farmers' co-operatives can provide input-supply, marketing and processing operations in the private sector. In this report, relevant areas within the agricultural sector were reviewed, constraints identified and recommendations made for the future development of farmers' co-operatives in Uzbekistan. |

The furniture industry of the Metropolitan Region of Belém provides many jobs opportunities and help to reduce the environmental impacts of sawmill, given that the shavings and wood residues of these firms are used as raw material. Factorial analysis was used to estimate the index of competitive performance (ICP) and to determine the competitive position of the firms in the furniture industry. The results showed that most of the furniture firms were located in an intermediate competitive level, which is due to the limiting factors such as lack of workforce, low technological level, difficult access to credit and low level of horizontal and vertical integration in the supply chain. The final results showed that only one, among the furniture firms, achieved... |

This paper provides an economic explanation of the existing market organization of the poultry industry. The vertical integration and the emergence of contracts with independent farmers is explained by risk sharing, technological progress and innovation dissemination, consumer demand for product reputation and uniform quality, and access to capital. In addition, the sources of growers' discontent with existing contracts are analyzed and the potential need for government regulation is discussed. |

Measurement of entire supply chain performance is an important issue, because it allows for "tracking and tracing" of efficacy and efficiency failures and leads to more informed decision-making with regards to chain organization. The ultimate aim of implementing a performance measurement system is to improve the performance of the organization. If supply chains can get their performance measurement right, the data they generate will tell them where they are, how they are doing, and where they are going. The choice of appropriate supply chain performance indicators is rather complicated due to presence of multiple inputs and multiple outputs in the system. This issue becomes even more problematic in the field of food and agribusiness due to specific... |

Suboptimal supply of food and agricultural traceability is framed in a transaction cost analysis. We propose a model that considers the variables of opportunism potential, agency costs, uncertainty, asset specificity, frequency, and transaction costs. The model is then applied to the development of a typology of feasible governance modes – market, hybrid, firm, or public bureau, considering levels of transaction costs and competencies of private firms. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed and future research opportunities are suggested. |

Structural change in the agricultural sector as well as in the whole agricultural value chain is an ongoing dynamic process and creates a number of diverse phenomena. The EU Strategy for Biofuels (2006) and the Biomass action plan (2005) set a clear signal that the EU wishes to establish and to support the bio energy-industry. The perceivable aim of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) consists in reducing food production and in enlarging the non-food production. Another driver for the attractiveness of bio-energy and bio-fuel production is the recent development of prices of crude oil and natural gas. Furthermore bio-energy is seen as one of the key options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and substitute fossil fuels. |

From the perspective of civil subject theory, law of value, comparative law and history of laws, the thesis expounds that the contract on the transfer of the contractual right of rural lands is in nature a civil contract instead of an administrative one. Then it explores the defects in the contract from the viewpoint of legal value goal, contract law and legal sociology, that is, the relevant provisions in Rural Land Contract Law and Explanations of Supreme People’s Court about the Issues concerning the Laws Applicable to the Trial of Cases of Disputes over Rural Land Contracting go against the principle of free contracting and run counter to the legal value goal of justice, so they do not achieve good implementing effect. Finally, the thesis demonstrates... |

Based on the introduction of the general situation of the research area, the SWOT analysis is applied to study the strengths, weakness, opportunities and threats of the industrial development in Three Gorges Reservoir area. The strengths are represented by the following four aspects: abundant agricultural resources, rich tourism resources, rich mineral resources and rich hydro energy. The weaknesses are analyzed from the following three aspects: the backward infrastructure, the acute conflict of the emigration of manufactures and the poor exploitation of advantageous resources. The opportunities of industrial development, which cover the opportunities bought by the guidance of national policies and preferential policies, by the improvement of traffic... |

In many of the developing (transition) countries, government is promoting the use of cooperatives as organizations that can help enhance the development of farmers and other communities. Agricultural cooperatives are believed to function as a tool for the government in promoting the economic and social development, in particular by creating employment, generating income, eradicating poverty and strengthen farmers’ (market) power within the modern value chain. As for most transitional countries, Chinese government played a primary important role in agricultural cooperatives development. The government attempted to restructure the agro-food system to a modernized and industrialized one by supporting farmer cooperatives and producer organizations. Since the... |

The present study research identified the level of social capital in a small enterprise and its impact in the company itself. In Latin America, the importance of this concept lies in its relevance because diverse disciplines uses it as a reference setting, today it is used not only as part of political science and sociology, but also as part of the organization theory, economics, human behavior and management. It put emphasis in the relationships among people, among organizations and not in the individuals as isolated subjects. One of its advantages is that the social capital can contribute in the analysis of the small local communities from a social perspective and economical development. Because of the nature of the data handled in this study a... |

Based on analysis of a time series of Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) indicator and Relative Trade Advantage Index the performance of Hungarian agriculture and food industry has declined rapidly during the last fifteen years. This fact highlights the importance of searching new paradigms in development. In short term the increasing of production–quantity does not seem to be a rational way. The only alternative is the product–differentiation strategy. Under conditions of increasing competition in foreign markets the importance of domestic markets gains in importance. The domestic market is a dynamic one, too: the producers should be better focussed of new demands of specific consumer segments (e.g. elder generations, ethnic minorities etc…). On the... |
