A Framework for Assessing of the Impact of Capacity Building AgEcon
Templeton, Deborah J..
Capacity building is widely recognised as an important component of most research-for-development activities. However despite the fact that around $15 billion is spent annually on capacity building activities, there has been limited assessment of the economic returns to that investment. In recent years, the Impact Assessment Program of the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research has turned its attention to quantifying the benefits from capacity-building. This paper sets out a framework for assessing of the impact of capacity building and presents four case studies. It does not purport to be a definitive paper by any means. Rather, it is an account of just one organisations experience. It is hoped that as work on this important area...

ASSESSING AND ATTRIBUTING THE BENEFITS FROM VARIETAL IMPROVEMENT RESEARCH: EVIDENCE FROM EMBRAPA, BRAZIL AgEcon
Pardey, Philip G.; Alston, Julian M.; Chan-Kang, Connie; Magalhaes, Eduardo Castelo; Vosti, Stephen A..
In general, reported rates of return to agricultural R&D are high, but questions have been raised about upward biases in the evidence. Among the reasons for this bias, insufficient attention to attribution aspects-matching of research benefits and costs-is a pervasive problem, the magnitude of which is illustrated here with new evidence for Brazil. Over the period 1981 to 2003, varietal improvements in upland rice, edible beans, and soybeans yielded benefits attributable to research of $14.8 billion in present value (1999 prices) terms; 6.1 percent of the corresponding value of crop output. If all of those benefits were attributed to Embrapa, a public research corporation accounting for more than half Brazil's agricultural R&D spending, the...

Significados atribucionales sobre desarrollo endógeno en cuatro comunidades rurales del centro de México. Colegio de Postgraduados
Martínez Mahr, Bertha Lucía.
El propósito fundamental del presente trabajo fue la de adentrarse, en la medida de lo posible, a la interpretación que campesinos de cuatro comunidades consideradas como de Alta Marginación en Atzizihuacan, Puebla hacen sobre los procesos de desarrollo propios de su región. Intentando a través de la identificación de las atribuciones hechas, determinar qué tan capaces se visualizan a ellos mismos como promotores de procesos de desarrollo endógeno en sus comunidades. La mayoría de las atribuciones hechas por los campesinos mostraron un Locus de Control externo tal como se esperaba. Lo anterior explica en parte los estados de desesperanza que se evidencian en las respuestas. La utilidad de este trabajo reside en la información que los campesinos...
