| The need for external capital (FDI) inflow to finance the current account deficit of developing countries cannot be over-emphasized. Foreign direct investment takes predominance over other types of capital inflow into developing countries. How would an increase in FDI and a reduction in import tariff levels in isolation affect household welfare and other macroeconomic indicators? How would the concurrent application of the two enhance the expected impact? This paper explores the above questions by using a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model for Ghana, implemented in the General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) to carry out specific counterfactual simulations. This paper concludes that the primary benefit of an increase in FDI inflow for a... |

| Dentre as diversas cadeias produtivas que representam a base de produção do país, a cadeia produtiva do leite vem sendo considerada uma das mais complexas e representativas do agronegócio brasileiro. Na cadeia produtiva do leite participam algumas atividades principais, como a produção e o processamento lácteo. No âmbito da produção, o Brasil é considerado atualmente como o sexto maior produtor de leite do mundo, ficando atrás da União Européia - que se configura como o maior produtor mundial -, dos Estados Unidos, da Índia, da China e da Rússia. O segmento de processamento, formado por empresas nacionais, multinacionais e cooperativas de produtores, é responsável por importantes transformações na cadeia produtiva, como por exemplo, possibilitar a... |

| China was admitted into the WTO in December 2001 and this raised the hopes of the US that China will open up to agricultural trade with the US. However, this potential has not been realized. The goal of this study is to determine the impacts of trade impediments and barriers of the market access of US oilseeds and grains in China. A market access variable that was obtained by dividing the total value of U.S soybean and corn exports to China by U.S agricultural G.D.P was regressed on China’s per capita income, exchange rate of the yuan to the dollar, arable land to labor ratio in the U.S and a dummy variable representing China’s WTO accession. The result found per capita income to have a positive impact on market access of U.S oilseeds and grains in China.... |

| With coffee prices at their lowest in a century, producing countries, which are mostly developing countries, are facing the worst crisis in history. The International Coffee Organization (ICO) acknowledges that poverty and unemployment are growing so rapidly that the consequences would be dire if nothing is done to halt the decline. This study draws welfare implications for producing countries based on import demand analysis for coffee in the three largest importers – the United States, European Union, and Japan. A differential production approach is employed. Results imply that coffee-producing countries will continue to be worse off with the expansion of exports. Hence, we suggest that they attempt new marketing strategies that include consistent... |

| La focalización de recursos por parte del Gobierno para apoyar la producción de maíz en aquellas zonas con alto potencial productivo requiere la identificación de las zonas más competitivas. Para determinar las zonas productoras de maíz (Zea Mays L.) más competitivas en el Estado de Puebla se formuló y se obtuvo la solución de un modelo de equilibrio espacial e inter-temporal que considera la demanda, la oferta, la distribución de la producción e importaciones, y el abasto del consumo en cada zona consumidora. El modelo usó datos del año promedio 2008-2010 y se obtuvieron cuatro soluciones que corresponden al año base, y a reducciones graduales en la disponibilidad de maíz para consumo proveniente de una disminución en las importaciones estatales. Los... |

| This article intends to introduce the significance of wheat production in world economy and role of Hungary in it on the basis of statistic database of FAO. Importance of wheat production in world economy is proven by its share of 15% from 1500 million hectares arable land in the world. This rate is equivalent to 225 million hectares of wheat area based on FAO figures for 2009. From its world economy significance viewpoint, on the basis of some significant features it sets order of ranks among wheat producing countries, accompanied by Hungary too. Setting of rank orders is based on the quantity of wheat produced by countries, cultivated area and exported, imported wheat quantity. As regards wheat export in 2008, Hungary was placed as 11. in the world while... |

| Seafood consumption in the U.S. has increased over the period 1990 to 2003. A large percentage of the seafood consumed in the U.S. is imported. The most important seafood products imported to the U.S. are shrimp, Atlantic salmon, tilapia, catfish, crayfish, mussels and a mixture of mollusks. In 2003, the U.S. imported 199 million pounds of tilapia and tilapia products, at a value of $241.2 million, a 38% increase from the previous year. The seafood market has been considered an important foreign exchange earner for the Caribbean Common Market (CARICOM), and Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) member countries. Jamaica is the only CARICOM country that exports tilapia products from aquaculture sources to the U.S. In 2003, Jamaica exported 39,950... |
