Vegetable production in response to consumer needs is a challenge that involved sectors needing to work in concert to address. The study entitled the agribusiness development by collaborative brainstorming for the development of a demand-supply matching platform (DSMP) of good agricultural practices (GAP) vegetables between modern trade and hospital matching with community enterprises in Roi Et Province was conducted during the period July 2020 to September 2022 The findings as cognitive information demonstrated that all parties accepted each other’s proposition; as a result, that led to the creation of the platform with fairness and balance between demand and supply. The developed platform consisted of four sub-platforms. The first one is Kham Pha-Ung Vegetables Community Enterprise (KPUVCE) x Their farmer network is a collaborative platform of the supply sector and serves to produce vegetables to the specified quantity and to manage production risks. Another named KPUVCE x Hospital is a direct order matching platform between KPUVCE and a hospital with a short credit term. The third one referred to as KPUVCE x Subcontract of modern trade (middleman) is an indirect order matching platform between KPUVCE and modern trade through a subcontractor of modern trade to relieve the limitations of a long credit term of modern trade paid to KPUVCE with inadequate working capital for management; the subcontract of modern trade pays cash or offers a short credit term to farmers. The final one, KPUVCE x Extension sector x Modern trade x Hospital is a collaboration promotion platform. As a result, it was found that KPUVCE could increase vegetables for modern trade and hospitals by 85% on average, and only 15% which is a challenge to DSMP balance.

The level of development of Nagaland has been estimated with the help of composite index based on agriculture indicators. The district-wise data for the year 2006 on nine indicators were used for eight districts of the state. For bringing abour uniform regional development, potential targets for various indicators have been estimated for low developed states. These districts require improvements of various dimensions in some of the indicators for enhancing the level of agriculture development.

In a world that is developing fast, Africa's relative stagnation is a human tragedy that challenges the development profession. Although climate and geography, and their effect on local institutions, are not in Africa's favour, inappropriate policies (including neglect of agriculture) and weak institutions figure more prominently in the explanation of slow growth. Recent evidence, however, points to accelerated growth in many parts of Africa. Analysis of agriculture shows that adverse effects of nature can be handled effectively, that efforts to develop and apply technologies for intensification in a variety of farming systems are under way, but that sustained adoption by the mass of smallholders has not sufficiently taken place. For that to happen, a variety of time- and location-specific complementary actions - both public and private - are needed, based on a right mix of disciplinary knowledge. With positive changes in governance and a revival of agricultural priorities in Africa, favourable conditions are emerging for renewed and better targeted external aid to support agricultural development.

Agriculture research knowledge and technology that transcends national borders has played a crucial role in enhancing developing country productivity growth over the past 50 years. The demand for international agriculture research (IAR) continues to be strong today even while becoming increasingly differentiated by the stage of development that a particular country or region is in. The supply of IAR to developing country research programs is, however, becoming increasingly constrained by: variable donor support; a push toward downstream product adaptation and dissemination activities relative to innovation and product development; and a lack of clear links between international public good research and national agriculture development priorities. Country-level donor coordination and alignment mechanisms, specified in the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness, do not explicitly account for the role of IAR in the development process. While the movement toward national ownership of its development agenda and donor alignment around it is unquestionably good, an unintended consequence could be a break in the R&D pipeline that supplies public good research and technologies for enhancing developing country agriculture productivity growth. The article presents options for rebuilding synergies between international public good research and national agriculture development priorities.Digital Object Identifier http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1574-0862.2010.00496.x

The aim of the study is to analyse the effects of large-scale agricultural infrastructure investment on rural development. Accordingly, we selected the Yeongsan River Basin Comprehensive Development Project (YRBCADP) as the case project and evaluated the impacts of YRBCADP on agricultural and regional development individually. In terms of agricultural development, YRBCADP has contributed to the increase of farmland area, agricultural productivity, and farm income. The farmland of the project area was increased about 3.5 times, from 43 000 ha in 1970 to 150 000 ha in 2010, and the average rice yield per area was 3.97 t ha(-1) in 1973. In addition, YRBCADP has affected regional development positively, such as population, regional income, and transportation accessibility. The ratio of population decrease was 25.6% in the project area but was 41.8% in the no-project area. The local tax per capita in the project area increased from 123 to 1747 million won in the period 1991-2011. The tidal embankment in YRBCADP has shortened travel distance, thus transportation costs were also reduced. This study reviewed the various effects of YRBCARD on rural development, and these results might offer useful information for making decisions for large-scale agricultural infrastructure investment.

Mountainous areas can be ideal "natural" laboratories used to verify the validity of the theories and of the interventions related to rural development. This is because in some of these areas, it is possible to distinguish what are probably the two most decisive elements which can determine the evolution of the socio-economic picture: complexity and limits. Complexity, meaning the presence of many elements interacting with each other. Limits, which from some viewpoints, represent the essence of mountain life and assume a new meaning from a sustainability standpoint. Using this scenario as a reference, the present notes identify the main research fields in agrarian economics which are most opportune to be explored in the near future.

Der Agrarsektor hat eine wichtige Funktion für den Arbeitsmarkt im landlichen Raum; hier sind mehr als 38 % der Erwerbstatigen Aserbaidschans tatig. Er ist zugleich von betrachtlicher Bedeutung für die wirtschaftliche Stabilitat des Landes. Aufgrundder hohen Bodenfruchtbarkeit, der natürlichen Bedingungen und geografischen Lage hat Aserbaidschan komparative Vorteile für die landwirtschaftliche Produktion. Trotz dieser Vorteile ist die wirtschaftliche Situation der Landwirtschaft nicht zufriedenstellend.Die Entwicklungsphasen der aserbaidschanischen Landwirtschaft waren sehr unterschiedlich. Diese lassen sich vor allem auf die engen Wechselwirkungen zwischen den agrarpolitischen Zielen und dem gesellschaftlichen Wandel zurückführen. Die gegenwartige Entwicklung der Landwirtschaft Aserbaidschans wird vor dem Hintergrund der veranderten Marktverhaltnisse untersucht und die daraus resultierenden Veranderungen in der landwirtschaftlichen Produktion und Struktur dargestellt.

In this article it is argued that rural development analysis is a research theme to be developed in Europe for both scientific reasons and its contribution to policy decision making. It begins by describing and analysing what is at stake in significantly extending our profession's interest toward rural economics, understood as the economics of rural areas. We then show that this extension of the field of research has two sides: concern to promote knowledge but also concern to contribute to an economic policy project focused on rural development. Finally, we examine the issues rural development poses for economic research and conclude with some remarks on future research avenues..

In the coming months and years the European Union has to make fundamental choices for the future of agriculture, food, landscape and quality of life within its whole territory. These choices have now to be made for 27 Member States, which together give a new configuration to the Community. Poland and Romania together now represent nearly half of the total active population involved in EU agriculture. European agriculture has to be multifunctional, competitive not only for the market but also for citizens, as an economic activity that uses and manages renewable resources of public interest. Higher competitiveness inevitably leads to restructuring and modernisation of the agro-food sector in the New Member States. This must be achieved gradually to avoid a negative social impact, through a rural development policy supporting job creation outside agriculture. Romanian agriculture employs about 30 per cent of the country's active population and half of the country's population live in rural areas. Romania, therefore, aims to preserve a substantial CAP budget to promote investment in agriculture and quality of life in rural areas. It is argued that it is in the interest of the whole EU to ensure not just proper use of the productive potential of Romanian agriculture but also economic development of the Romanian countryside.

Agricultural development thinking has gone through several stages of fad and fancy,often without an understanding of previous fallacies.Its current doldrums are unfortunate given the unrivaled importance of agricultural development for poverty reduction in most development countries.After reviewing several policy and program areas,lessons are synthesized,and a forward-looking research framework suggested,especially regarding role of specialization in the evolution of economic organization.The corresponding role of government is seen to be the facilitation of economic cooperation,rather than social engineering.
