Heterogeneous seed access and information exposure: implications for the adoption of drought-tolerant maize varieties in Uganda
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 7 - Trang 1-23 - 2019
Frequent droughts in sub-Saharan Africa imply water stress for rainfed agriculture and, ultimately, food insecurity, underlining the region’s vulnerability to climate change. Yet, in the maize-growing areas, farmers have been given new drought-coping options following the release and availability of drought-tolerant maize varieties (DTMVs). These varieties are being disseminated through the Nation......

The dark and the bright side of power: implications for the management of business-to-business relationships
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 4 - Trang 1-17 - 2016
The importance of power is underlined by many scientists who view it as a key behavioral construct. Power distinguishes itself as an effective tool in coordinating and promoting harmonious relationships, solving conflicts, and enhancing performance. An important challenge is to determine what role power plays in managing business-to-business relationships with specific attention to coordination an......
Differing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on farmers and intermediaries: insights into the Ecuadorian cocoa value chain

The COVID-19 pandemic generated diverse impacts and responses in agricultural value chains worldwide. Cocoa is a key crop for Ecuadorian exports, and the analysis of effects the pandemic had on value chain actors contributes to the understanding of their individual capacities to coping with a major shock. The purpose of this study was to assess the number and severity of impacts and responses impl......
Institutional contributions to agricultural producer price stability
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 10 - Trang 1-22 - 2022
This paper compares the main intersectoral and national agricultural institutions in Russia and Switzerland during the period 2004–2019 and uses data from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), an ordinary least squares model and fixed-effects models to assess the contributions of governments, sectoral producer organisations and companies to agricultural producer price stability. We find sig......
A combined framework for the life cycle assessment and costing of food waste prevention and valorization: an application to school canteens
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 8 - Trang 1-11 - 2020
About one third of global edible food is lost or wasted along the supply chain, causing the wastage of embedded natural and economic resources. Life cycle methodologies can be applied to identify sustainable and viable prevention and valorization routes needed to prevent such inefficiencies. However, no systemic approach has been developed so far to guide practitioners and stakeholders. Specifical......
Organic vegetables demand in urban area using a count outcome model: case study of Burkina Faso
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 8 - Trang 1-16 - 2020
This paper designs and tests a model for count outcomes to analyse the effective demand for organic vegetables in the city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. From a ‘short value chain’ perspective, we show that the distance travelled by consumers to organic vegetable production sites primarily managed by women farmers’ associations, is a key determinant of organic food demand. Furthermore, the effect o......
Demand relationships in orange exports to Russia: a differential demand system approach focusing on Egypt
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 4 - Trang 1-16 - 2016
Recent years have witnessed closer diplomatic relations between Egypt and Russia, which have led to significant growth in the countries’ bilateral agricultural trade. As a world-leading producer and exporter of oranges, these developments represent an opportunity for Egypt to promote its orange exports to Russia. Another emerging opportunity for Egypt to increase its share in the Russian market fo......
Assessing the role of market integration in the consumption of traditional foods in Benin: a joint price instability coefficient and diet composition approach
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 6 - Trang 1-18 - 2018
Globalization-driven food trade policies and the transformations of food regimes have led to modernizing food habits and the growing substitution of traditional foods by introduced/industrialized foods in the diets of urban people in sub-Saharan Africa. Such changes in food consumption habits are suspected to be associated with the increasing prevalence of some non-transmittable food-related disea......
Determinants of agricultural technology adoption under partial population awareness: the case of pigeonpea in Malawi
Agricultural and Food Economics - Tập 4 - Trang 1-21 - 2016
There is exhaustive literature on technology adoption rates and the relationship between technology adoption and relevant socioeconomic and policy variables. Yet adoption estimates derived from the application of standard techniques such as the probit and tobit yield biased estimates. This paper applies the modern evaluation technique: the counterfactual outcome framework to data from about 400 ho......
