DOWNLOAD EBOOK →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.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →First published in 1999, this volume is intended to encourage appreciation of the cardinal significance for integrating macroeconomic policy variables and environmental factors and any other relevant externalities into sectoral policy analysis as a tool for improving choice of strategic factors in agricultural development, investment of allocative efficiency in agriculture and environmental protection and overall agricultural development management. 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.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book applies marketing channel analysis to Africa's export agriculture and examines the opportunities, problems, and policies of the various channel members. You'll find a fresh and long-run view of export agriculture that is not entrapped in the current pessimism about downward trends in sub-Saharan Africa. The Trans-Oceanic Marketing Channel will open your eyes to vertical, ocean-straddling links between actors, particularly the exporters and importers.
