During the rest of the year, there are much less employment opportunities for rural than urban households, with the former working about half the time worked by urban households during the low season . Lack of labor smoothing across months can thus be a major cause of income differentials between rural and urban households. Measuring …

International experience shows that in the long run, increased foreign participation in the financial sector will have a positive effect on country’s development as a whole. However, in the period immediately following its WTO accession and the removal of protective measures in the financial sector, China may face one of its biggest challenges. There is …
Any treatment effects on farmer-level uptake might occur simultaneously with supply responses by dealers.To measure this, we surveyed seed dealers around the same time as the farmer survey. We timed the survey to be in September so that seed purchases would be recently completed and easier to recall for dealers. Dealers were asked which varieties …
In comparison to forest, agricultural habitats are less stable and more regularly disturbed.These attributes could preclude sustained competition and favor related species with traits that allow them to persist in agriculture’s novel and variable conditions . Previous work with the same data set demonstrated that bird functional diversity is lower in intensive mono cultures than in forest reserves or …
Rosen wrote ten ‘comprehensive studies’ of American agriculture which totaled over 1,300 pages, which helped him earn his Bachelor of Science degree in agriculture in 1908. In that same year Rosen moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota, and became a U.S. citizen on December 30, 1909. Rosen was, by then, an expert on American farming techniques and …

For these commodities, the Domestic and Full changes from reference are therefore most similar. Indeed for Corn in particular, the inclusion of even spatially heterogenous, direction varying impacts across the entire world versus only in the U.S. makes very little difference in the physical output variables of GCAM considered: area, production, and endogenous yield. It is primarily …
These efforts to manage groundwater supply and groundwater quality make the agricultural community subject to an evolving set of new requirements for documentation of key farm activities, training, practice improvement, monitoring and reporting. This will be a significant and in some cases expensive shift in farming practices. It is without parallel in California’s agricultural history. …
Countries may provide more subsidies if the political accommodations that they buy are especially valuable. Indeed, Table 1 suggests that subsidies are more likely to occur in countries with a major reserve or in authoritarian countries, such as Iran or Venezuela.This research aims to explain the impact of the introduction of bio-fuels on fuel markets …

Livestock production is the agricultural sub-sector with the highest emissions and in turn with the highest potential for mitigation finding. It uses approximately 37% of the state’s agricultural land finding, and it generated 61% of California’s agricultural greenhouse gas emissions in 2009. The remaining 63% of agricultural land is used for field, fruit and nut …

The large N2O emissions from agricultural lands are of particular concern given both its high global warming potential relative to CH4 and CO2 and its contribution to stratospheric ozone depletion.Conservation tillage, including no-tillage and reduced tillage management, is increasingly being adopted on agricultural lands worldwide.About 10% of global arable lands, i.e.∼125 million hectares, are currently managed using conservation …
