| In agriculture, the coexistence of different forms of land tenancy or labour contract has been explained so far by several theories related to Marshallian inefficiency, incentives, risk sharing, and transaction costs, including supervision costs. These theories and the empirical evidences have greatly contributed to explain the reasons behind land tenancy or labour contract choice. This study follows up on this. Moreover, it intends to take a further step by focusing particularly on the production technologies at plot level, and by designing and testing a theoretical model based on household profit optimization. This model will take into account the supervision costs of labour (i) to compare optimum profit derived from plots based on household labour, a... |

| This paper describes important regulation issues that concern microfinance. It starts by considering literature on how and why to regulate and supervise microfinance. Considering the specific case of microfinance in Albania, it analyzes the context of this industry and some particular issues that might influence its growth. Related regulation in Albania seems to be not activity–oriented since a real definition of microfinance is lacking in the Albanian law. Therefore, Albanian microfinance sector needs, first of all, a microcredit and microfinance definition to implement the right development policies and avoid confusion and license misuse. Moreover, the regulatory framework seems to be too restrictive for institutions supposed to be engaged in... |

| En el Distrito de Riego 063, Guasave, Sinaloa, se utilizan prácticas tradicionales y poco eficientes en el seguimiento del Plan de Riegos. Además de lo anterior, la falta de personal capacitado y la crisis provocada por la falta de agua necesaria para el desarrollo de los cultivos, hicieron obligada la aplicación de las Técnicas de Percepción remota y Sistemas de Información Geográfica. Se realizó el seguimiento al desarrollo de las superficies regadas y sembradas contempladas en el Plan de Riegos del Ciclo Agrícola Otoño-Invierno 2011-2012. La supervisión y monitoreo consistió de informes presentados por el personal del Distrito de Riego, y también se obtuvieron datos de las imágenes y del Sistema de Información Geográfica. Con esta información se logró... |

| Labor markets in all economies are subject to transaction costs associated with recruiting, monitoring and supervising workers. Rural labor markets in developing economies, where institutions such as labor and contract law and formal employment assistance mechanisms are not in place, are regarded to be particularly sensitive to transaction cost conditions. The inherent difficulty of measuring transaction costs has limited studies on this topic. In this paper, we analyze supervision activities reported in a cross-section survey of rice farmers in the Bicol region of the Philippines. This survey is unique because it provides supervision data at the farm task level. We present a simple optimization model in which supervision intensity increases the... |
