The results of thisstudy lead to three basic conclusions. First, there is asignificant negative relationship between agricultural exportpromotion and food consumption. Economic growth and increasingagricultural exports earnings do not necessarily increase foodsecurity. Second, protein consumption per capita constitutes amore sensitive indicator of changes in food consumption and aproxy for the distributional dimension of the food consumptionproblem. Third, alternative policies should incorporateagricultural export into a broader agroindustrialdevelopmental strategy aimed at achieving food security bothby increasing income and by food production.2                                    NAL Call.

But different kinds of agriculturaltechnology promotedifferent patterns of nonfarm linkages. To explore how keyfeatures of agricultural technology affect growth in the ruralnonfarm economy, this paper reviews an array ofcross-sectionand time-series evidence bearing on the dynamics of the ruralnonfarm economy. Then, using consumption and productionparameters associated with different agriculturaltechnologies,it introduces a simple model which isolates theeffects of different technologies on nonfarm growthlinkages.3                            NAL Call.

Part of an issueon Trade and macroeconomic linkages and agricultural growth inLatin America.Language:  EnglishDescriptors: Argentina; Economic growth; Agriculturaldevelopment; Economic policy; Government; HistoryAbstract:  Argentina showed impressive economic growth from1860 to 1930. During this period Argentina outgrew countrieswith similar resource endowments such as Australia, Brazil,Canada and the USA. The country's early development strategywas predominantly outward oriented. Since the 1930s Argentinahad lagged behind its competitors. Stagnation has beenespecially severe in agriculture. This article argues thatgovernment policies (trade, macroeconomic and income policies)which resulted in distorted economic incentives and causedinefficient resource allocation have been the main reasons forArgentina's poor economic performance in recent decades.5                                     NAL Call.

The report assumes that the degree towhich available technology can be implemented in a nation'sagricultural sector depends on accumulated investments thathave been made in the sector. Results from estimatingaggregate agricultural production functions show the primaryimportance of rural labor in accounting for agricultural GDPand crop production. Capital accumulation is the dominantexplainer of livestock production. Estimation results supportthe conjecture that capital tends to save scarce landresources (substitute relationship) and use rural labor(complementarity relationship). Output supply elasticitiesderived from the estimated equations tend to be large. Thelarge elasticities imply that price distortions have had largeimpacts on resource use and production.19                                NAL Call.

Includesreferences.Language:  EnglishDescriptors: Bolivia; Class conflict; Ethnicity; Livingstandards; Occupational status; Income distribution;Employment opportunities; Education; Economic development;Political power; Familial incidenceAbstract:  Discrimination on the basis of race, religion, orethnicity appears to exist in many societies throughout theworld. That subordinate ethnic groups have worse jobs andlower incomes is incontrovertible. But discovering whetherthese differences are created by discrimination rather than bythe natural working of economic forces is difficult and hasproduced a major literature on ethnic differences inindustrial societies. Little is known however, about the less-developed, predominantly rural societies that still constitutemost of the world's population. This paper uses data from alarge, representative sample survey to examine the source ofinequalities in a society where ethnic differences loom aslarge as anywhere in the world, rural Bolivia. The greatinequalities between Indians and Spaniards--far greater thandifferences between blacks and whites in the United States--were originally ethnic. But now educational differences arerooted entirely in class differences, not ethnicity: Indianand Spanish sons born into comparable families get the sameamount of schooling. Different factors influence occupationalsuccess for the two groups; for Indians, the father'soccupation is crucial, whereas for Spaniards, education iscrucial. But despite this dual labor market, occupationaldifferences are rooted in class, not ethnicity. So aredifferences in standard of living. Before the revolution of1952, Spanish sons had a small advantage thatcould not beexplained by class; after the revolution, Indian sons had aslight advantage; but throughout recent history, class hasdominated. These results suggest five general hypotheses aboutthe links between economic development, political power, andexploitation.24                                 NAL Call.

This paper analyzes the implications of assumptionsabout the effectiveness of acreage reduction programs, fixityof farm assets, and decoupling on trade liberalization resultsfor U.S. grains and cotton. The range of outcomes for variousslippage specifications is not very wide. More significantchanges come from varying model supply elasticities thatreflect the degree to which agricultural resources are nottransferable to other sectors of the economy. Also, the degreeto which deficiency payments are decoupled from productionimplies trade liberalization outcomes more favorable for theUnited States.35                                    NAL Call.

U.S. wheat exports in 1987/88 were 75 percent abovetheir 1985/86 level. This paper analyzes the change in U.S.competitiveness in wheat exports by quantitatively assessingthose factors responsible for this export expansion. Theresults indicate that about half of the increase can beattributed to the provisions of the 1985 Act. About 40 percentof the increase is due to nonprice factors in the Soviet Unionand China--namely production shortfalls and domestic policies--that increased import demand. The rest is due to reducedcompetitor yields.46                                   NAL Call.

Part of an issueon Trade and macroeconomic linkages and agricultural growth inLatin America.Language:  EnglishDescriptors: Ecuador; Agricultural economics; Economic growth;Agricultural development; Economic policy; Trade policy;Monetary parity; Production policy; Government; Income;HistoryAbstract:  The economic growth of Ecuador's agriculturalsector relative to the rest of the economy over the last twodecades is analysed, with special emphasis given to theeconomic adjustment of the 1980s. While exogenous shocks tothe sector from changes in the weather and world prices hadsignificant short-term impacts, they cannot explain the long-term performance of Ecuadorean agriculture. The key tounderstanding long-term sectoral growth trends is the policymatrix implemented by the Ecuadorean government and its impacton production incentives. This article examines the extent towhich the performance of the agricultural sector was apredictable consequence of macroeconomic policy.48                                  NAL Call.

Includes 22 references.Language:  EnglishDescriptors: Chile; Infant nutrition; Preschool children;Child nutrition; Socioeconomic status; Nutritionalintervention; Malnutrition; Disease prevention; Nationalsurveys; Low birth weight infants; Infant mortalityAbstract:  Extract: Events in Chile show that it is possibleto intervene effectively in the fields of health, nutrition,education and sanitation, and achieve substantial progresseven though underdevelopment and poverty have not yetdisappeared. It is necessary to set up a basic infrastructurein order to provide extensive and appropriate coverage. Thiscontradicts the claims of economists who believe that progressin the above fields can only be achieved through a substantialdegree of sustained economic development. This is of greatimportance because it provides a way of breaking the viciouscircle of underdevelopment-malnutrition-underdevelopment. Itis essential to preserve human resources. Only in this way candevelopment become possible. What has been achieved in Chilehas been possible as a result of continuity of programmes,despite changes of government. Results need time; events inChile show that it is the outcome of at least three decades ofcontinuous effort. Taken together, the measures, programmesand intervention activities have been able to reduce theadverse effects of periodic economic crisis. Lastly, it mustbe recognized that an important part has been played by theUniversity of Chile. Essentially, it has been the Universitycentres that have diagnosed the situation and helped todevelop a sense of national awareness. Their research hasprovided a basis for the planning and implementation of formsof intervention. They have also permitted continuousevaluation and constant counseling at decision-making levels.The training of appropriately qualified professionals with adeep sense of social purpose has also been essential. It isthey who in actual fact have provided continuity of actiondespite changes in economic policy during the period. Theprogress achieved can, most certainly, serve as a model tomany countries in the region if they accomplish each of thestages outlined.(author)49                                   NAL Call.

It is concluded that, while malnutrition isassociated with the status of a country's economicdevelopment, major, cost-effective nutritional interventionscan be effected prior to major economic advancement throughthoughtful allocation of food subsidies and nutritioneducation to those at greatest nutritional risk.

The model usedconsiders the possibility of market imperfections ininternational trade and the potential effects of strategictrade policies. The results indicate that agricultural pricesmay not be as flexible as commonly thought. Furthermore,exchange rate and tariff changes are not fully passed throughto U.S. tobacco import prices, which indicates that firmsselling Brazilian tobacco may use trade strategies to maintainor even increase their trade shares in the U.S. tobaccomarket.62                                  NAL Call.

It will be suggestedthat these changes are a response to increasing commercialopportunities and new needs, in part related to theliberalisation of social and economic life in the post-agrarian reform period. As populations engage in a greatervariety of forms of work in different locations in order toget by so their use of rural areas changes.68                              NAL Call.

This paper elaborates a set of internationalpolicies in support of food security that would be consistentwith GATT's main objective of reducing interference bynational policies in the free flow of goods. This set includescommitments to maintain global food stocks and food aid,disciplines for stockbuilding and food aid distribution, andsupport for certain programmes aimed at reducing instabilityof food production and supply. While a guarantee of foodsecurity is beyond GATT control - and depends ultimately onsustained economic development - there are food securityenhancing mechanisms that the GATT can support withoutencouraging new trade distortions.85                              NAL Call.

    Document Delivery Services to Individuals
    The National Agricultural Library (NAL) supplies agricultural materials not found elsewhereto other libraries.
    Filling requests for materials readily available from other sources diverts NAL's resources and diminishes its ability to serve as a national source for agricultural and agriculturally related materials.  Therefore, NAL is viewed as a library of last resort.Submit requests first to local or state library sources prior to sending to NAL.  In the United States, possible sources are public libraries, land-grant university or other large research libraries within a state.  In other countries submit requests through major university, national, or provincial institutions.
