Market-oriented Strategies to Improve Household Access to Food
Author: Adding Up Problem
Author: Takamasa AkiyamaPublisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN:
Category : Africa, Sub-Saharan
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
Policies designed to address the regional adding- up problem in Sub-Saharan Africa -- such as a region- optimal export tax -- generate unequal benefits among countries. Further, few countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have sufficient market power to influence commodity prices in the long run. Export taxes may prove beneficial for some countries but, at certain levels, transfer resources from smallholders to government with limited welfare gains.

The main concern of Matthew Okai is for choosing realistic policy instruments to promote development, quantifying constraints and evaluating the impacts of policy on objectives.
