Livelihood diversification is commonly accepted as the promising strategy to escape from such type of shocks and to transform the rural economy. Ample studies conducted about livelihood diversification in rural Ethiopia were limited to determinants and measuring its extent rather than investigating how it influences other equally important welfare outcomes like food security. In light of these, this study attempted to analyse the impact of livelihood diversification on rural household food security in Goncha-Siso-Enesie district, Amhara Regional State of Ethiopia. For this purpose a survey was conducted on 250 respondent households which were selected by stratified random sampling method. Descriptive statistics were employed to analyse the data. To a large extent, impact of livelihood diversification on household’s food security has been analyzed by using propensity score matching (PSM) econometric model. Descriptive statistics result pointed out that rural households combined non-farm and off-farm activities instead of relying on-farm only. Result from PSM also suggests that livelihood diversification brought a positive significant impact on household food security. Finally, policy implications were made according to the finding of the study.","PeriodicalId":53319,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food and Agricultural Economics","volume":"455 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76050733","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}

Groundnut (Arachis hypogea L.) is an important cash crop and contributing as both food security as well as sources of income generation for many smallholder producers which improves their living standards. However, improving groundnut producers to arrive at market is a key concern desired in the study area. Hence, this study aimed to identify factors determined household’s groundnut supply to the markets using survey data collected from randomly selected 175 groundnut producing producers. Descriptive statistics was used for socio-economic characteristics of groundnut producers and econometric analysis was used for determinants of groundnut supply to the markets. Ordinary least square estimation result indicated that education level, numbers of oxen owned, number of family size, land size, quantity produced, farming experience, extension service and credit service were significant predictors of groundnut marketed supply. This study was recommended that improving the extension and credit service system is an imperative to accelerate groundnut market development particularly in the study area and generally in the country at large.","PeriodicalId":53319,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food and Agricultural Economics","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74788559","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}

A total of 160 respondents were selected using multistage, purposive and random sampling techniques. The data was analysed using descriptive statistics and Foster, Greer and Thobecke (FGT) poverty index. The findings of the study on the demographic characteristics shows that majority of the beneficiaries are aged (55 – 65years) with no formal education. The project beneficiaries expressed satisfaction with the approach and monitoring methods adopted by Fadama I project in the implementation of the objectives, they also opined that the project had increased their incomes and had succeeded in addressing the farming needs of households in the study area. Moreover, the result revealed that Fadama I project beneficiaries had a mean per capita income of N28,332.86 before and N83,364.47 after Fadama I project intervention. The result of the FGT poverty index indicated that 66 percent of the beneficiaries’ households were poor and 34 percent were non-poor before the project intervention. The result revealed that Fadama I project beneficiaries had increased the beneficiaries’ mean per capita income from N28,332.86 before the project to N83,364.47 after the project intervention. The study also revealed that Fadama I project decreased the number of poor beneficiaries from 66% before to 57% after the project intervention. The study recommends that Governments and Development partners need to continue to support agriculture through project interventions such as Fadama I project using appropriate strategies that suit the beneficiaries’ peculiarities.","PeriodicalId":53319,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food and Agricultural Economics","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78837410","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}

We used the data from the content of the contracts and by individual interviews with key actors complicated in the process of implementation of the aggregation projects of cereals. The results reveal that only eight Agricultural Aggregation Project, out of 119, received the certificate of aggregation. This is reflecting the fact that, the implementation of this model of vertical coordination was underway. In addition, the analysis of the contract-farming data for clauses has shown us 5 important clauses categories: production (quantity and quality) and payment methods; agricultural extension systems; inputs supply; management of risks; and dispute resolution mechanisms. These findings highlight the value added to the contractual clauses and the need to strengthen the visibility and role of the contract farming as a framework to accompany the investments of ‘‘The Green Morocco Plan’’, in particular with regard to agricultural aggregation projects. We also show that the contract participation reduces the transaction costs in aggregation system, reduction in the number of intermediaries and ensure the link between the producers and markets. The study concludes that, despite enactment of laws on farm aggregation, contract smallholders remain vulnerable to opportunist behavior. It suggests that the contract clauses must be accompanied by commensurate controls and Involving farmers in negotiating contract terms to ensure ‘win-win’ outcomes for Aggregator (AG) and Aggregated (Ag).","PeriodicalId":53319,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food and Agricultural Economics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88176991","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}

Using the trade data between the years 2010 and 2016, this paper estimates several revealed comparative advantage (RCA) indices, particularly inversion revealed comparative advantage (InRCA), revealed symmetric comparative advantage (RSCA) and competitive export performance (CEP) for each country compared. The results suggest that the competitiveness of Pakistan mangoes export was stable during the study period except in 2014-2015, when Pakistanâs competitiveness declined. At the same period, Mexico, Thailand and Philippines had increased comparative advantage in mango export, presenting a serious threat to Pakistanâs mango export potentials. An index of comparative export performance (CEP) indicates that Pakistan had a comparative advantage against most of the top mango producing and exporting countries expect Thailand and Philippines. The results indicate that Pakistan mango export exhibits strong comparative advantage, however to gain consistency in export competitiveness, Pakistan needs more managerial efforts from public and private institutions to address issues like food safety, importing countriesâ quarantine requirements and sanitary & phytosanitary (SPS) restrictions.","PeriodicalId":53319,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food and Agricultural Economics","volume":"7 1","pages":"341-349"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48037573","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}
