But, these objectives cannot be achieved without adequate source of developmental funds. As a result of various source options of developmental financing, this study examined the effect of debt financing mix on economic growth and development in Nigeria strategically from a decade after independence (1970) to 2007 fiscal years. Major debt financing options were considered in the analysis of this study and the long-run relationship between selected debts financing mix and economic growth proxy as Real Gross Domestic Product (RGDP) was established through the Augmented Engle Granger (AEG) Cointegration test. The entire time series variables data regressed-treasury bill, development stocks, treasury certificate and bond, multilateral debt source, international lending clubs and real gross domestic product-were found stationary at first difference excluding series on international lending clubs which was found explosive. The estimated cointegrated regression model formulated revealed the best economic friendly debts financing mix to achieved major macroeconomic targets of the governments. Strategic policy recommendations were proffered based on the findings emanated from the study.","PeriodicalId":38543,"journal":{"name":"Pakistan Journal of Life and Social Sciences","volume":"71 5","pages":"8-12"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72628994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Buchenried","doi":"10.3923/PJSSCI.2011.13.22","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3923/PJSSCI.2011.13.22","url":null,"abstract":"Increasing food production is a major aspect of sustaining livelihoods for a majority of rural African households especially for subsistence, smallholder farmers. In Central and West Africa in particular where population growth has been faster than economic growth, the adoption of new and improved agricultural technologies offers the potential to reduce consumption and income risks for smallholder farmers. Although this position is generally accepted within the literature on agricultural technology adoption, empirical evidence is diverse. This paper presents the results of a comparative analysis for a random sample of 152 smallholder farmers (60 adopters and 92 non adopters of integrated fish farming technologies) from Cameroon villages. The technology was promoted by a non-governmental organisation, known as the Presbyterian Rural Training Center (PRTC). Primary data collection took place between September 1st 2003, and February 15th 2004. Based on an analysis of selected socioeconomic characteristics (such as income and consumption), the results reveal that technology adopters were better-off and less risk averse, compared to the matching sample. This however could not be attributed to the adopted technology, as returns from the new technology made insignificant contributions to household well being. The results indicate a deficiency in targeting the most risk-exposed smallholder farmers. Nevertheless, the enhancement of sustainable natural resource management is clearly significant amongst adopters and could be attributed to the innovation. The paper concludes with the need to identify and involve most risk-exposed households in technology adoption, and to adapt innovative technologies to the specific needs of such households for optimising risk reduction","PeriodicalId":38543,"journal":{"name":"Pakistan Journal of Life and Social Sciences","volume":"24 1","pages":"13-22"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83261588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
