The Role Of Agro-Industries In Promoting A Food Culture In Nigeria, M. O. Ojo Dec 1991

The Role Of Agro-Industries In Promoting A Food Culture In Nigeria, M. O. Ojo

Economic and Financial Review

The paper discusses in a general way the role of agro-industries in the promotion of a Nigerian food culture.

Infusion Of Private Sector Capital In Rural Infrastructure Building In Lagos State, E. D. Balogun

Economic and Financial Review

This paper recognizes the constraints imposed l7y the weak rural infrastructure base in Lagos State given the swampy/riverine nature of her landscape and notes the dim prospects for overcoming them through public investments alone.

Among the financing mechanisms for infusing private sector capital into rural infrastructure building include rural development levies, strengthening of rural financial markets and special aids/grants from private and non-governmental agencies. For· these initiatives …

Bautista, R.M. "Agricultural Growth As A Development Strategy." Economic Impact No. 66 Pp. 24-28 1989, L. I. Odey

Economic and Financial Review

In this paper, the author attempts a further exposition on the on-going debate on the feasibility of adoption of an export-led strategy of economic development which considers" Agriculture- first" as the engine of growth. The au~or strongly supports an agricultural-based development strategy because it is capable of generating mass employment, it is anti-poverty as well as being an hl.come redistribution programme. This strategy, he reasons, should be particularly appealing to countries with a heavy debt service burden since it is a foreign-exchange conserving programme given the lowerimporrrequirements of agricultural growth and itslinka,geeffectscompared with those of industry-led import substitution strategy.

Exchange Rate And Income Effects On South Korean Exports: The Us Case, Heather M. O'Neill, William Ross Dec 1991

Exchange Rate And Income Effects On South Korean Exports: The Us Case, Heather M. O'Neill, William Ross

Business and Economics Faculty Publications

This paper analyzes econometrically the effects of direct and cross exchange rates as well as US income and Korean supply developments on the volume of Korean exports to the US. The results suggest that US demand has been the most important factor in the growth of Korean exports to the US in recent years. However, direct exchange rate effects are also important; the estimates suggest that for 1989-90, a yearly 10% real appreciation of the won against the dollar would have lowered export volume by about 10% per year relative to a baseline case. Cross exchange rate effects run counter …
