Cotton in Africa
Author: Uma J. Lele
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
An analysis of state-federal relations in developing agricultural economies must first address such issues as the overall role of government, the need for public administrative suppport and the relative roles of state and federal governments during agricultural transformation. After examining the historical antecedents of local-state-federal relations in agricultural development, this paper presents an analytical normative model suggesting guidelines for assigning fiscal responsibilities for agricultural programs among tiers of the government. It then examines empirical evidence against the background of the analytical model; isolates the critical issues in government relations in Nigerian agriculture; and makes some recommendations that may guide relationships in the future. The next sections present a brief sketch of historical antecedents and an analytical model of the criteria for assigning responsibilities for agriculture between state and federal governments. The paper then examines the empirical evidence, while the final section isolates the critical issues in local-state-federal relations in Nigerian agriculture.

Cotton Sector Strategies in West and Central Africa
Author: Mr.Ousmane Badiane
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1451858647
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 22
Book Description
Cotton production in West and Central Africa (WCA) has contributed to growth and poverty reduction. Recently, the objective of poverty alleviation has been adversely impacted by the downward pressures on world prices (exacerbated by subsidies by major cotton producers outside Africa). Several countries in WCA are undergoing reforms in the cotton sector to stimulate greater market competition and raise the share of the international price going to farmers. While these efforts would help to improve rural income irrespective of the world market situation, they would be more powerful in combination with a reduction in other countries’ subsidies in this sector.
