The rise of a western-style middle class in many successful emerging economies like China currently is inducing deep structural changes on agricultural world markets and within the global agri-food business. As a result of both higher incomes and concerns over product safety and quality the global demand for high-quality and safe food products is increasing significantly. In order to meet the new required quality, globally minimum quality standards are rising and private standards emerging. All over the world these developments cause adjustments at the enterprise, chain and market levels. At the same time, the tremendously increasing demand for renewable energy has led to the emergence of a highly promising market for biomass production. This has... |

In February 1962 the Council of the Australian Agricultural Economics Society appointed a sub-committee to report on the present state of farm financial statistics in Australia and to recommend desirable improvements. The aims in calling for this report were twofold: (a) Members of the Society have long felt the need for more comprehensive economic information about Australian agriculture. The adverse movement of prices of farm products in Australia during the last decade has increased the urgency to obtain such data. (b) In view of the possible reorganisation of various statistical series, it was felt that the Society - whose members are major users of farm financial statistics - should outline its views on desirable improvements in this field. The... |

Die finanziellen Auswirkungen der Brüsseler Finanzbeschlüsse auf die 2. Säule der EU-Agrarpolitik stellen die Zukunft der derzeitigen flächenbezogenen Förderung des ökologischen Landbaus infrage. Zur Erhöhung der Effektivität und der Effizienz der Förderung wird deshalb das dem Ertragsteuerrecht entlehnte System der Flexiblen Förderung als Alternative zur bestehenden flächenbezogenen Festbetragsförderung vorgestellt. Die Auswirkungen der Flexiblen Förderung auf die ökologisch wirtschaftenden Betriebe werden diskutiert und gemäß der eigentlichen Zielstellung der Förderung beurteilt. |

There were indications of failure of Indonesia's agricultural credit program in terms of its inability to increase agricultural production, farmers' income, and repayment level. This paper analyses the impact of credit provision on farming activities and proposes strategies for improving livelihood of agricultural producers in Lombok, Indonesia. The analysis is based on two periods of survey conducted in Central Lombok, where the current KKP government credit scheme is provided to agricultural producers. Three villages within the regency were sampled, representing various repayment rates of government credit. Data were collected using face-to-face, semi-structured interviews with farmers who had made use of government or other sources of agricultural... |

The purpose of this report is to provide a revised version of the publication, "Mathematical Formulas for Calculating Net Returns from Participation in Government Commodity Programs including Marketing Loans" (Williams and Barnaby, 1994). The change in design of the government commodity programs and development of several crop insurance alternatives has been significant since the previous paper was published. The formulas for calculating net returns incorporate provisions from the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 and several crop insurance designs developed in the 1990s. Individuals conducting research or education programs will be able to use this revision for reference when estimating net returns for producers under current commodity... |

Theoretically, leasing and debt are thought to be substitutes. This assumes that a lease payment, which is a fixed obligation like a loan, displaces debt and reduces debt capacity, i.e., if firms have optimal debt to equity ratios, then, to the extent that it represents "off-balance-sheet" financing, leasing reduces debt capacity. Ang and Peterson-the seminal work in the literature-fit Tobit models with 1976 to 1981 data from 600 firms in which a leasing to book value of equity ratio is the dependent variable and a debt to book value of equity ratio and other variables are the explanatory variables. Contrary to expectations, their model results indicate that leasing and debt are complementary activities. This study follows the Ang and Peterson... |

The Russian establishment- politicians, agricultural officials, corporate farm managers, the media- firmly believe that inadequate access to credit is one of the major factors constraining the growth of the agricultural sector. In technical terms, they in effect claim that Russian agriculture faces credit rationing. In this article, we apply discrete regression analysis to study the determinants of access to credit for corporate farms, without addressing the issue of whether or not the actual borrowing is sufficient for the farms' needs. Our analysis shows that factors reflecting economic efficiency are the main determinants of access to credit. On the other hand, asset endowments, such as land and capital stock, have a very weak effect on the ability to... |

Off-farm financial investments, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and certificates of deposit, can offer farmers significant opportunities for diversification. Moreover, deregulation of financial markets in the 1980s enhanced the ability of farmers to invest in these financial assets. This study reports the results of a mail survey to 473 North Dakota farmers to identify the type and size of financial assets these farmers hold, their geographic placement, and their motives for investment. The 119 North Dakota farmers who responded to this survey had not taken advantage of the financial innovations deregulation that financial markets afford. Their investments were concentrated in local savings accounts, checking accounts, and farm real estate. Few... |
