Texto completoThe model is first calibrated and validated using the case of soybeans adoption versus corn uses in Quebec from 1987 to 1998. Validation is performed through five tests, namely visual, statistical and sensitivity, modularity and extendibility are performed to show the relevancy of the approach.
The model is then applied to the case of four input biotechnology crops. Again three types of validation tests are carried out. Results show that the model predicted the shape of the curve for all application fields.

This study focuses on the productivity and on-farm efficiency impacts of adopting biotechnology enhanced soybeans (BES). Previous research suggests the adoption of BES and subsequent time savings resulted in labor allocation to off-farm employment and reduced on-farm efficiency. Using continuous panel data for 129 farms enrolled in the Kansas Farm Management Association (KFMA) with production and financial crop records from 1993 through 2011 that also provided information on their BES adoption experience, this study provides estimates on the technical efficiency, cost efficiency, and Malmquist productivity indexes (MI) with decompositions into efficiency change (EC) and technical change (TC) to provide insights on the impacts of adopting BES for set of sample farms. Using data envelopment analysis to construct nonparametric efficiency frontiers and measurements assuming constant returns-to-scale (CRS) and variable returns-to-scale (VRS) technologies for the farms, this study provides insights on the impact of yield impacts of BES adoption. A biennial Malmquist productivity index (BMI) is developed to consider estimation of the productivity impacts between BES adopters and non-adopters assuming VRS. This analysis used five input categories: Labor, general, direct inputs, maintenance, and energy; and five outputs: corn, soybeans, sorghum, wheat, and other crops. Tobit regression analysis of the panel of Kansas farms provided evidence of a positive impact from adoption of biotechnology enhanced soybeans on on-farm technical efficiency. Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit distributional hypothesis tests showed significant differences between analyzing the farms under CRS and VRS assumptions. T-tests showed a bias existed when assuming CRS if the true underlying technology was VRS in productivity analysis. However, there was not a strong statistically significant difference between the distributions of productivity measures from the underlying populations of BES adopters and non-adopters in the sample of Kansas farms. A revenue-indirect cost efficiency analysis of the sample farms demonstrated that different conclusions were reached under CRS and VRS when considering the differences in the average of the means of estimated efficiency scores and Tobit regression results considering BES adoption. Assuming CRS resulted in positive marginal effects for adopting BES of 0.017 significant at the 5% level. The marginal effect of BES adoption was not statistically significant under VRS.

Texto completoAgriculture has been the backbone of the economy in Nigeria providing employment and source of livelihood for the increasing population and accounting for over half of the GDP of the Nigeria economy at independence in 1960. However, the role it plays in the regional and economic development of the country has diminished over the years due to the dominant role of the crude oil sector in the economy. With the increasing food demand in Nigeria, the country has available input natural resources and potential for increasing the volume of crop production towards meeting the food and nutritional requirement of the rapidly increasing population and guarantee food security in the country. The study was undertaken to analyse the effect of different factors and policies on the changes in trend of crop production and investigate the possible effect of water resources development on increased volume of agricultural crop production in Nigeria.
The study revealed that there are opportunities for water resources development in the country through irrigation to supplement the water requirements and needs of farmers for agricultural production activities in many areas in the semi-arid and arid regions. Available data shows that there are available land and water resources that could be developed to support the production of food and agricultural development with opportunity for increased productivity.
However, while the water resources are unevenly distributed in the country, there is need for the efficient use and management of the available water resources and increasing the productive use especially in the northern region of the country where there is increasing incidence of drought and competing need for water among the different sectors of the economy. The study also made possible recommendations for policy formulation to address the current problems facing the agricultural sector in conjunction with the requirement for the development of the water resources.

Resumo: O rápido processo de difusão da biotecnologia agrícola ocorre simultaneamente à necessidade de implementar um aparato regulatório, que implica em custos ao longo da cadeia agroalimentar. No caso da agricultura de grãos, isto tem ocasionado custos elevados associados à regulação. A emergência de um mercado consumidor mais exigente quanto à preservação da identidade de uma categoria de grãos e o crescimento das exportações de commodities agrícolas brasileiras aponta para a geração de impactos positivos, na forma de melhor remuneração para os produtos agrícolas de qualidade diferenciada. Todavia, tal tendência entra em choque com a estratégia brasileira dos últimos anos de exportar commodities, processo que expõe uma série de fragilidades logísticas do País. O objetivo da presente tese é analisar o efeito da segregação dos grãos diferenciados na logística de transporte e armazenagem do Brasil, especialmente os grãos geneticamente modificados (GMs), a partir das diretrizes do Protocolo de Cartagena de Biossegurança (PCB), bem como os desdobramentos na competitividade no mercado internacional. Com isto, antecipam-se os impactos sobre as exportações de grãos em um cenário em que segregação e identificação de cargas por seus atributos - por exemplo, ser transgênico - sejam demandados. Este trabalho traz como contribuição o desenvolvimento e a aplicação de novas ferramentas analíticas, através de um modelo de equilíbrio espacial, sob a forma de um Problema de Complementaridade Mista (PCM), para incorporar os custos decorrentes da segregação de cargas, cujos resultados propiciem a orientação de políticas mais eficazes para configuração de mercados diferenciados e que dêem suporte a novos investimentos no setor de transportes. Como resultado do trabalho, observa-se que a logística para esta classe de produtos é afetada pelas exigências do PCB. Quanto mais rígidas as exigências para o processo de identificação de eventos transgênicos, maior é o impacto na comercialização, na forma de redução do valor e dos volumes de grãos exportados pelo Brasil, o que, por seu turno, pode afetar negativamente a difusão da biotecnologia agrícola. Sugere-se que o tema da diferenciação de produtos e sua identificação sejam resolvidos por acordos entre as partes interessadas, via contratos bilaterais
Abstract: The rapid spread of agricultural biotechnology occurs simultaneously along with the need to implement a regulatory apparatus that takes into account costs along the supply chain. In the case of grain agriculture, this has caused high costs associated with the regulation. The emergence of a more demanding consumer market regarding the preservation of the identity of a category of grains and the growth of exports of Brazilian agricultural commodities points to positive impacts in the form of better pay for quality differentiated agricultural products. However, this trend conflicts with the Brazilian strategy of recent years of exporting commodities, a process that exposes a number of the country's logistical weaknesses. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the effect of segregating different grains in Brazil's transport logistics and storage, especially genetically modified (GM) grains according to the guidelines of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB) as well as developments in competitiveness in international markets. Thus, impacts on grain exports are anticipated in a scenario in which the segregation and the identification of cargo through its attributes - for example, being genetically modified - are demanded. This thesis's contribution is to develop the application of new analytical tools through the development of a spatial equilibrium model in the form of a Mixed Complementarity Problem (MCP) to incorporate the costs of cargo segregation whose results favor more effective policies to shape different markets and which support new investments in the transportation sector. Based on the results of this research, it has been observed that the logistics for this class of products is affected by the requirements of the CPB. The stricter the requirements for the process of identification of transgenic events, the bigger the impact on marketing in the form of reducing the value and the volume of grain exported by Brazil, which may in turn negatively affect the spread of agricultural biotechnology. It is suggested that the issue of product differentiation and identification be settled by agreements between the concerned parties through bilateral contracts
