Regional Productivity Growth In China's Agriculture

Regional Productivity Growth In China's Agriculture

This study by Shenggen Fan makes three important and original contributions. It is the first study to report regional patterns of productivity growth in Chinese agriculture. There have been dramatic differences in output and productivity growth among Chinese regions. The second contribution is to measure the separate effects of technical change and institutional reform on productivity growth. Much of the rapid growth in agricultural production and in productivity since the late 1970s has been a consequence of an important series of institutional reforms. The third contribution is the first test of the induced innovation hypothesis against experience in a centrally planned economy. Regional patterns of productivity growth are consistent with the hypothesis that the path of technical change has been responsive to regional differences in resource endowments. | Regional Productivity Growth In China's Agriculture

Risky Agricultural Markets Price Forecasting And The Need For Intervention Policies

Risky Agricultural Markets Price Forecasting And The Need For Intervention Policies

This book shows how decisions made by individual farmers influence the efficiency of agricultural markets. Unless farmers properly take account of the correlation between prices and yields in forming their price forecasts competitive markets will often be socially inefficient leading to misallocation of resources. The authors demonstrate that a simple and practical price forecasting rule based on expected per unit revenue is generally adequate to ensure efficient market behavior. Time-series data from various countries are used to test the hypothesis that market supply is influenced by the correlation of price and yield as well as by lagged market prices . The importance of market inefficiencies in risky situations is shown to depend on the variability of yields the nature of farmers'price forecasting behavior the degree of private risk aversion and the elasticity of demand. The authors suggest and evaluate three basic policy approaches governments may take when confronted with very inefficient markets-establishing production quotas improving market information services and implementing price stabilization schemes. They conclude by discussing implications of the study for the specification of agricultural supply models and for the economic appraisal of risky investment projects. | Risky Agricultural Markets Price Forecasting And The Need For Intervention Policies

Advanced VLSI Design and Testability Issues

Advanced VLSI Design and Testability Issues

This book facilitates the VLSI-interested individuals with not only in-depth knowledge but also the broad aspects of it by explaining its applications in different fields including image processing and biomedical. The deep understanding of basic concepts gives you the power to develop a new application aspect which is very well taken care of in this book by using simple language in explaining the concepts. In the VLSI world the importance of hardware description languages cannot be ignored as the designing of such dense and complex circuits is not possible without them. Both Verilog and VHDL languages are used here for designing. The current needs of high-performance integrated circuits (ICs) including low power devices and new emerging materials which can play a very important role in achieving new functionalities are the most interesting part of the book. The testing of VLSI circuits becomes more crucial than the designing of the circuits in this nanometer technology era. The role of fault simulation algorithms is very well explained and its implementation using Verilog is the key aspect of this book. This book is well organized into 20 chapters. Chapter 1 emphasizes on uses of FPGA on various image processing and biomedical applications. Then the descriptions enlighten the basic understanding of digital design from the perspective of HDL in Chapters 2–5. The performance enhancement with alternate material or geometry for silicon-based FET designs is focused in Chapters 6 and 7. Chapters 8 and 9 describe the study of bimolecular interactions with biosensing FETs. Chapters 10–13 deal with advanced FET structures available in various shapes materials such as nanowire HFET and their comparison in terms of device performance metrics calculation. Chapters 14–18 describe different application-specific VLSI design techniques and challenges for analog and digital circuit designs. Chapter 19 explains the VLSI testability issues with the description of simulation and its categorization into logic and fault simulation for test pattern generation using Verilog HDL. Chapter 20 deals with a secured VLSI design with hardware obfuscation by hiding the IC’s structure and function which makes it much more difficult to reverse engineer. | Advanced VLSI Design and Testability Issues
