With a relatively small population and 7% of the world's available freshwater resources, Canada is well placed for a world of water scarcity where the real value of water in its many uses becomes more and more apparent. However, action is necessary to ensure that Canada continues to benefit from the social, economic and environmental goods and services derived from water resources. Experience and analysis suggests that policy and incentives play critical roles in the sustainable exploitation of natural resources. In particular, properly valuing water in all its forms and uses appears to be critical. Analysis abroad has underlined the benefits of clearly delineating the roles of regulators, resource managers, infrastructure operators and service... |

Neste capítulo, são analisadas as contribuições, em curso na Embrapa, no sentido de alcançar os Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) da Agenda 2030 da ONU, no que se refere à meta 16.7 - Governança e responsabilização institucional: garantir a tomada de decisão responsiva, inclusiva, participativa e representativa em todos os níveis. A responsabilização institucional pode ser também entendida como accountability, conceito complexo que engloba seus vários sentidos, principalmente as noções de responsabilização, responsividade e prestação de contas (Cruz, 2015). Todavia, a presente análise está pautada no conceito de accountability ligado ao modelo teórico da administração pública denominado "Novo Serviço Público" - aquele que, segundo Rocha (2010,... |

The sustainability of regional development can be usefully explored through several different lenses. In situations in which uncertainties and change are key features of the ecological landscape and social organization, critical factors for sustainability are resilience, the capacity to cope and adapt, and the conservation of sources of innovation and renewal. However, interventions in social-ecological systems with the aim of altering resilience immediately confront issues of governance. Who decides what should be made resilient to what? For whom is resilience to be managed, and for what purpose? In this paper we draw on the insights from a diverse set of case studies from around the world in which members of the Resilience Alliance have observed or... |

Aquatic agricultural systems in developing countries face increasing competition from multiple stakeholders over rights to access and use natural resources, land, water, wetlands, and fisheries, essential to rural livelihoods. A key implication is the need to strengthen governance to enable equitable decision making amidst competition that spans sectors and scales, building capacities for resilience, and for transformations in institutions that perpetuate poverty. In this paper we provide a simple framework to analyze the governance context for aquatic agricultural system development focused on three dimensions: stakeholder representation, distribution of power, and mechanisms of accountability. Case studies from Cambodia, Bangladesh, Malawi/Mozambique,... |

Como medida para se aumentar a margem de lucro na pecuária, é preciso antes, que se tenha o valor de quanto custa produzir uma @ na propriedade e baseando-se neste dado, definir estratégias que venham aumentar a rentabilidade da atividade. Objetivou-se com este trabalho determinar os custos médios de produção na pecuária de corte no ano de 2006 que representaram a realidade do município de Curvelo. Os dados foram coletados com base na contabilidade e escrituração zootécnica de três fazendas, as quais desenvolvem a atividade de cria. Os itens que tiveram maior participação no custo foram, folha de pagamento (36,38%), suplementos minerais e protéicos (21,56%) e pró-labore (12%). Vacinas, vermífugos e remédios, 4,25%, adubos e fertilizantes ,4,02%,... |

The increased interconnection among local and global players induced by globalization, as well as the need for a complete application of the “subsidiarity principle”, calls for a re-thinking of the “corporate social responsibility” concept. This new concept broadens the perspective of the single company interacting with its own stakeholders in relation to specific social and environmental impacts, to a network of organizations, with different aims and natures, collaborating on relevant sustainability issues. In this paper, the authors will provide a definition of “Territorial Social Responsibility”, sustaining the multi-stakeholder approach as a driver toward local sustainable development. Firstly, theoretical approaches to sustainable development at the... |

Major changes affecting Agricultural Economics include: level and sources of funding, increased accountability, a renewed emphasis on teaching, increasing university and college linkages, an evolving student base, and the continuing adoption of educational technology. Major implications include: broader faculty teaching involvement, agribusiness program development, expanding multidisciplinary majors, Ph.D program modifications for teacher preparation, expanding professional M.S. degrees, graduate program size and specialization reductions, alternative financing of graduate education, and faculty training in teaching methods. Teaching represents a major growth opportunity for Agricultural Economics, but it remains to be seen whether the discipline takes... |
