Abstract:
Scholars have different views on the nature and pace of capitalist transformation of the Chinese agriculture. In this paper, we have, for the first time, estimated the approximate size of agricultural proletariat in China as well as the prevalence of wage labor in agricultural work. We argue that by comparing with typical capitalist agricultures in the world, China’s agriculture is increasingly capitalist rather than petty producer/populist.

Abstract:
In response to the circumpolar region’s high levels of food insecurity, many Canadian communities have identified the development of local agriculture as a means to resolve the issue. Agricultural development is varied across the circumpolar region, an area which includes Yukon, the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Nunavik (Quebec), and Nunatsiavut (Newfoundland and Labrador). This review explores the interregional differences in circumpolar agriculture, their historical development, and their relationship to prevailing biophysical, socioeconomic, and political conditions. Drawing upon local food strategies and literature pertaining to current agricultural initiatives, we discuss the future direction of circumpolar agriculture in Canada. Yukon and the Northwest Territories are the most agriculturally developed subregions of circumpolar Canada, and their territorial governments support the development of commercial agriculture. In Nunavut, Nunavik, and Nunatsiavut, relatively few agricultural initiatives are underway although local efforts have been made to establish community gardens or greenhouses and improve access to fresh commodities through subsidization of imported goods. Because of variability in biophysical, social, institutional, and political environments, strategies for food production would be most effective if tailored to each subregion. The continued development of agriculturally favorable policies and certified processing facilities in Yukon and the Northwest Territories could improve market access, both locally and out-of-territory. The eastern subregions (Nunavut, Nunavik, and Nunatsiavut) seem more inclined towards small, community-driven projects; these initiatives could be promoted to encourage community involvement for their long-term sustainability. Most studies on circumpolar agriculture have focused on the biophysical and social challenges; the region would benefit from additional research into the institutional and political barriers to agricultural development.

Abstract:
The economic importance of agricultural sector in Slovakia declined during transition period. There are several reasons for this: declining terms of agricultural trade, extreme weather, transformation of agricultural sector, unclear property rights in transition period, short-run privatization distortions, transformation of up and downstream sectors, world market fluctuation, decline of real wages, low stability of agricultural policy and other. The development in economic market was paralleled by activity in political market. After initial liberalization, agricultural protection subsequently increased. The EU accession influences both levels of protection as well as instruments of agricultural policy.

Abstract:
Agricultural development is a process aimed at continuously increasing agricultural production in order to increase agricultural production for each consumer, which at the same time increases the income and business productivity of each farmer by increasing capital and skills to increase human involvement in the development of crops. plants and animals. Agricultural development is an integral part of economic development and society in general. Broadly speaking, agricultural development is not just a process or activity to increase agricultural production but is a process that produces social changes in values, norms, behavior, institutions, social and so on in order to achieve economic growth and improve the welfare of farmers and society. Agriculture is the main sector producing food ingredients and industrial materials that can be processed into clothing, food, and board materials that can be consumed or traded, therefore agricultural development is part of economic development.

Abstract:
This paper will analyse agricultural sector development in individual new EU member states with emphasis on capital stock value development in agriculture. The main objective is to identify the relationship between capital stock value development, and agricultural sector performance in the individual analysed countries. The results of the analysis are as follows. The agricultural sector has significantly changed its structure and position within the national economy of individual new EU member states in the 20 years since the early 1990s. The size of the agricultural sector reduced in each of the analysed countries, resulting in a reduction in the value of the agricultural sector performance. Despite the significant reduction of the agricultural sector in many analysed, some became more efficient in terms of their agricultural sector performance. Individual country’s agricultural sectors became more effective and more competitive. Individual country’s agricultural sector size and performance development are closely related to capital stock value in agriculture. Both the agricultural sector structure, and agricultural sector production performance are closely related to available capital stock value. In line with the main objective of this paper, the most sensitive segments of the agricultural sector in relation to capital stock are livestock production, land development and the number of economically active persons in agriculture. Regarding sensitivity of agricultural production performance in relation to changes in capital stock value, the most sensitive are livestock production and non-food agricultural production.

Abstract:
In the age of economy meltdown with suggestion of agriculture for economic recovery, this paper examines the significance of agriculture for development and economic growth in the world. While examining these suggestions as previously stated by scholars, the paper further investigates the problems and challenges of the different sectors that enhance development. However, more emphasis is focused on the development of the agricultural sector, which seems to be lagging behind. Researchers suggest diverse ways in which communication strategies can be employed for developing the agricultural sector in Nigeria. While emphasising the need for young people to change their stereotype view of agriculture, mostly obtained from ICT exposure, the study recommends that the government make policies on land that is favourable to agriculture or for cultivation of crops in the country.

Abstract:
The long-term and stable development of agriculture is the key to China’s economic development and social stability. Agricultural total factor productivity and the digital economy have become new kinetic energy and new engines driving agricultural high-quality development. It is of great significance to verify whether there are significant spatial and threshold effects in the process of high-quality development of agriculture and to explore the intrinsic relationship between high-quality development of agriculture and agricultural total factor productivity and digital economy. This paper takes 31 provinces in China from 2011 to 2020 as the research object. The coefficient of variation method is used to estimate the comprehensive evaluation index of agricultural high-quality development and digital economy. And Dea-Malmquist index method is used to estimate agricultural total factor productivity. On this basis, the spatial Durbin model and threshold regression model are constructed to explore the spatial and threshold effects of agricultural total factor productivity, digital economy and other factors and high-quality agricultural development. The conclusion is as follows: the high-quality development of agriculture has significant spatial autocorrelation. Agricultural total factor productivity and digital economy have significant direct effect and indirect spillover effect on the high-quality development of agriculture. Agricultural total factor productivity has stage differences in each range of digital economy level, but its influence on agricultural high-quality development shows a positive state. Based on this, the paper puts forward some countermeasures to promote the high-quality development of agriculture.

This article describes trends in Russian agricultural development, results of import substitution in the economys agricultural sector, and food security. The authors analyzed consumption levels of the main agricultural products and food, depending on the populations level of income. The study associates the problem of import substitution with provision of domestic material and technical resources. The authors noted that the duration of the import substitution process for different agricultural products depends on the effectiveness of agricultures organizational and economic mechanisms. Growth opportunities are limited in the economys agricultural sector due to replacement of imports market share. Developing import substitution will create conditions for increasing exports of agricultural products and food and for transitioning from import dependence to development of export potential.

Abstract:
The paper deals with the study of the relationship between agricultural development of and agricultural engineering. Production output of certain types of machines and equipment for agriculture are examined. The dynamics of production performance in plant growing and stockbreeding is analyzed. The dynamics of such agricultural development indices as net income, subsidies, taxes, net value added, fixed capital application, etc. are considered. The tripling of output and a steady growth of net profit of agricultural producers are established. It is proven that farm equipment upgrading is less active than net income growth, and thus it was determined that enterprises have the necessary financial resources to generate demand for agricultural machinery. The peculiarities of agricultural machinery production in Ukraine at the present stage are revealed, in particular the causes and consequences of such a situation in production machinery for agricultural enterprises. Two opposite trends in agricultural machinery production are identified, namely, the decline in the production of complex, expensive machinery and the increase in the production of less costly appliances. The condition of the durable equipment in agriculture is analyzed by identifying their value and the degree of wear. Consequences of the increase in the quantity and quality of used machinery in agriculture are revealed. The requirements of agricultural enterprises for the quality of agricultural machinery are identified, and their classification by the requirements for quality, value and service is worked out. The quality requirements include technical and functional characteristics; value requirements consist of equipment prices, discounts, and value-added services. Service requirements comprise quality assurance of information, organizational and maintenance services. In accordance with the established requirements, technical, organizational, economic and social ways to meet these requirements were developed.

Abstract:
Agriculture is one of the important and complex sectors, it is not only a simple economic sector but also a biological - technical system. Because the basis for agricultural development is the use of bio-energy - plants and animals. Agricultural sector, if understood in a narrow sense, is only the cultivation, husbandry and service sectors. As for agriculture, in broad terms it also includes forestry and fishery. Agriculture provides food and food for social needs, agriculture is the basic material production industry, plays a major role in economic development in most of the country, especially in developing countries. At present, Vietnam’s agriculture has great potential and can be enriched from agriculture. However, wastage and loss in agriculture are still high in the stages of processing, harvesting and preserving. Mechanization is still low, lower than Thailand, so agricultural labor productivity is not high. Over the past years, Vietnam’s Agriculture has achieved important developments, contributing to the development of Vietnam’s economy. However, to achieve higher goals in the next 10 years, Vietnam’s agriculture needs to promote its strengths, such as: Well implementing land policies in agriculture; training high quality human resources; building a credible agriculture, which is clean, safe, quality agriculture and organic agriculture; protect natural environment, such as: land, climate, weather, hydrology, etc. In order to ensure sustainable agricultural development.

Abstract:
For sustainable agricultural development, increasing efforts are put on promoting agricultural mechanization and green agricultural development all over the world. Based on the panel data of Chinese provincial agriculture from 2002 to 2018, the System Generalized Method of Moments model and mediation model are constructed to explore the paths of agricultural mechanization affecting green agricultural development. The results show that agricultural mechanization can not only promote the green agricultural development directly but also indirectly by transferring the agricultural labor force and increasing fertilizer input. However, because of the surge of pesticide demand, agricultural mechanization also leads to serious pollution indirectly. With the development of large-scale agricultural machinery, the direct promotion of agricultural machinery on green agricultural development will be more significant. However, it will be less efficient to substitute more agricultural labor force with machinery power. The problem of pesticide abuse will also become more serious. Therefore, it is important for green agricultural development to encourage human capital investment in agricultural mechanization. In addition, more attention should be paid to improving the input efficiency of fertilizers and pesticides so that agriculture will be sustainable in production and the ecological environment.

AbstractDevelopment during approximately 200 years of agricultural activity in Alaska has been varied and generally inadequate. Four stages are here identified. During the period from Russian and early American colonization to the late 1880s production was largely for personal consumption. From 1898 to World War II federal intervention stimulated local commercial agriculture, and from the late 1940s to the late 1960s commercial production expanded. Since then a state- supported strategy to develop an export-based agriculture has been tried, but implementation has not been completed. Alaska remains a frontier which has yet to find a workable manner in which to implement a strategy for its agriculture.

ABSTRACTThe definition of sustainable agriculture is the successful management of resources for agricultural enterprises to meet changing human needs while maintaining or improving environmental quality and conserving natural resources. The true meaning of sustainable agriculture is one that is economically sustainable which is achieved by: less energy use, minimal ecological footprint, less packaged goods, widespread local purchasing with shorter food supply chains, less processed foodstuffs, community gardens and gardens more houses, and so on Sustainable agriculture relies heavily on returning nutrients to the soil by minimizing the use of non-renewable natural resources such as natural gas (which is used as a feedstock for fertilizers) and minerals (such as phosphates). The most important factors in the utilization of natural resources in a land are soil, sunlight, air, and water.Sustainable agriculture is the implementation of the concept of sustainable development in the agricultural sector. The concept of sustainable agriculture is based on three pillars: economic, social, and ecological.Keywords: Development, Agricultural, Sustainable

The modernization of agriculture requires both public and private funding. Despite some efforts, financing of agriculture is not effective in Côte d'Ivoire due to the lack of real commitment from the private sector and commercial banks. The results showed that in the long-term agricultural credit and other variables have a positive and significant influence on agricultural added value. It is therefore recommended to increase agricultural credit and extend it to small producers.

Climate change is threatening food production systems and therefore the livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people who depend on agriculture in China. Agriculture is the sector most vulnerable to climate change due to its high dependence on climate and weather and because people involved in agriculture tend to be poorer compared with urban residents. Consistent warming trends and more frequent and intense meteorological disasters have been observed across China in recent decades. In line with climate change across the whole country, it will require agricultural development to implement comprehensive mitigation and adaptation strategies.

Abstract:
<p class="JSDLKatakunci"><strong>Abstra</strong><strong>ct</strong><strong>.</strong> Environmentally friendly agriculture is an agricultural system that manages all resources and inputs of the agricultural system to achieve optimal productivity and economic benefits, but has a low risk of resource and environmental sustainability, as well as global warming/climate change. Environmentally friendly implementation strategies lead to synergy and integration between technologies, optimization of resources and production inputs which are carried out through three approaches, namely: (1) Anticipation, adaptation, and mitigation approaches in the context of global warming and climate change, (2) Mitigation approach, countermeasures, and remediation in the context of edhapik and biological environments, and (3) Land remediation approach in the context of degradation and pollution of land, air and ecosystem resources due to excessive use of agrochemicals. Support for research activities and development of adaptation, mitigation and remediation strategies for the restoration of polluted land is expected to increase the economy while producing healthy agricultural products and environment. Various regulations and policies for implementing a sustainable agricultural environment, socialization and implementation in the field must be supported by an agricultural environment information system that is easily accessed by users.</p>

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the long run changes of aggregate input-output relationships and assesses the impact of agricultural development on the growth rate of Malaysian agricultural productivity over the period 1966-2000. We find that despite the intensified effort to modernize and revitalize the agricultural sector, the average annual growth rate of agricultural production decreased from 8.2 percent in the initial phase of agricultural development (1966-1970) to 5.1 percent in the intermediate phase (1971-1990) and subsequently to 0.3 percent in the modernization phase (1991-2000). During 1966-2000, labor productivity recorded the highest annual rate of growth of 4.6 percent as compared to 2.1 percent of land productivity and 2.9 percent of total productivity. All productivity measures recorded an increasingly slower rate of growth throughout the period of study. This reflects the deterioration in production efficiency in Malaysian agriculture presumably due to technological adjustment and inputs subsidies.

Abstract:
The main ambition of this paper is to analyse agricultural developments in selected new EU member states with particular emphasis on government expenditures in agriculture. The main objective is to identify the relationship between government expenditures development on one side, and agrarian sector performance (the value of production) in selected member states on the other. The conclusions drawn from this analysis are that the agricultural sector has changed its structure and position within the national economy of selected new EU member states significantly in the 20 years since the early 1990s. Member states included in the analysis reduced both the size of their agricultural sector (number of people working in agriculture, total arable areas, number of animals, etc.), and the value of agricultural output. Despite the significant reduction of the agricultural output, member states became more efficient – and in particular their productivity per farmer increased significantly. Selected country’s agricultural sector, its structure and production value development are closely related to government expenditures. Significant correlation is apparent between agricultural government expenditures and the change in the number of economically active persons in agriculture, development of agricultural production, agricultural area, agricultural GDP and agricultural capital stock. Regarding the elasticity of new EU member states’ agricultural sector in relation to changes in government expenditures, significant elasticity is apparent in the case of the number of economically active persons in agriculture, agricultural production (especially livestock production), area of arable land, agricultural GDP and capital stock.

Abstract:
The primary objective of the AGRICULTURE SPRAYING DRONE is to enhance the efficiency of agricultural spraying through the utilisation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and also to minimise waste and adverse effects on the environment while optimising conventional agricultural spraying techniques. With the help of a 22000 mAh battery, the system combines cutting-edge parts, including the Hobby wing X6plus motors, K++ V2 flight controller, Sky Droid T12 receiver and transmitter, Hobby wing pump, flowmeter, Can hub, obstacle avoidance system, and PMU. The drone, with a total weight of 29 kg and a maximum payload capacity of 12 kg, guarantees accurate and productive spraying operations across large agricultural areas. Key characteristics include adaptive spraying patterns tailored to specific field conditions, targeted pesticide application, and real-time crop health monitoring. An additional mobile application enhances the system by offering farmers the ability to remotely operate, schedule spraying, and examine field data. In order to show how the suggested drone system may be implemented practically and its effectiveness assessed in actual agricultural settings, the article describes the system architecture and provides a use-case scenario. By enabling more effective and sustainable agricultural methods, this research advances precision agriculture technologies. Key Words: Agriculture Spraying Drone, Precision Spraying, Sustainability.

Agriculture is the basic economic activity of the world's poorest countries, and the sustainability of this sector is vital for their overall development. Appropriate agricultural policies in conjunction with research and technology could play an important role in protecting and promoting sustainable agricultural development. In this paper, it is argued that agriculture-related policies should be geared towards providing economic incentives to resource-poor farmers, enabling them to improve their agricultural productivity, income and livelihood without causing environmental degradation. In this regard, research and technology development should be farmer-centred, practical and economical. Emphasis must be placed on raising yields, conserving soils, and lowering costs through improved farm management.

Abstract:
Does variation in how religious festivals are celebrated have economic consequences? We study the economic impacts of the timing of Catholic patron saint day festivals in Mexico. For causal identification, we exploit cross-locality variation in festival dates and in the timing of agricultural seasons. We estimate the impact of “ agriculturally coinciding” festivals (those coinciding with peak planting or harvest months) on long-run economic development of localities. Agriculturally coinciding festivals lead to lower household income and worse development outcomes overall. These negative effects are likely due to lower agricultural productivity, which inhibits structural transformation out of agriculture. Agriculturally coinciding festivals may nonetheless persist because they also lead to higher religiosity and social capital. (JEL O12, O13, O18, 043, Q12, Z12, Z13)

Abstract:
The rural revitalization strategy is taken as an important measure to solve the problem of agriculture, rural areas and farmers, and a powerful starting point for realizing this strategy is agricultural e-commerce. The vigorous development of agriculturale-commerce helps farmers eliminatepoverty, increase income, and promote agricultural industrialization. While bringing new development opportunities, it is also faced with new challenges, mainly including the lag of related supporting construction, the imbalance of regional development, and the unsustainability of development structure. With the rapid development of the digital economy, using digital technology to promote the reform of agricultural e-commerceis particularly critical, which plays an important role in promoting the digital transformation process of the agricultural economy and accelerating rural revitalization.Therefore, China should actively use a variety of digital technologies, take digital agricultural e-commerce as the core, and focus on optimizing and implementing the construction of relevant supporting facilities, innovating the development mode of agricultural e-commerce, and constructing a sustainable chain development system, thus providing new ideas and directions for the development of agricultural e-commerce and better promoting the revitalization of digital rural areas.

Abstract:
In this paper, the problem of achieving sustainable development in the context of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and other policy suggestions is examined. Sustainable development is defined as a commitment to conserve necessary biological, cultural, and aesthetic capital for future generations. This is not a costless process. Constraints are required on current economic activity, entailing sacrifices by the current generation, if sustainability requirements are to be met. Specific wildlife sites within the farmed landscape are critical to the sustainability programme. Conservation of these sites entails the continuation of specific and often technically obsolete farming practices. Their conservation cannot be ensured by the practice of efficient sustainable agriculture as advocated by the authors Pretty and Howes. Furthermore, those authors are wrong in believing that such agriculture could be profitable without continuing subsidy. The approach of the CAP is to make payments for the practices necessary to safeguard these sites. However, the economic sustainability of the CAP is doubtful. Its costs are excessive and reforms are not reducing the excessive financial burden and resource costs. Alternative reform packages involving conservation through cross-compliance have even greater resource costs. The ability to safeguard these critical sites in the long run is therefore questionable. This suggests there is a need to rethink sustainability requirements for cultural and biological diversity.

Abstract:
The relevance of the topic of the article is connected with the current state of the agricultural industry and the need to solve the problem of food security improvement, especially in the regions of Russia. Agriculture is the most important area that ensures not only the food but also the economic security of the country, which directly affects the level and quality of life of the population. The ongoing sanctions and political isolation of Russia are no less reflected in the agriculture of the regions and from the point of view of food self-sufficiency. In addition, there are transformations that are accompanied by changes in the social structure of villages and organizational and legal forms of rural management. The development of agriculture affects the level and quality of life and the well-being of people in any state. The volume and structure of food, average income per capita, and social living conditions depend on its state. In this regard, effective measures should be taken to ensure the sustainable development of the agricultural industry. The purpose of the paper is to conduct studies of the state of agriculture in one of the North-Arctic regions of Russia, Yakutia, to identify problems and factors that significantly affect the development of its agriculture, as well as to suggest a number of recommendations for measures to improve the situation in agriculture and the development of rural areas. The analysis based on a generalization of state statistics revealed problems about the underdevelopment of the engineering and social infrastructure of agriculture and rural areas and also found that insufficient funds for the development of agricultural industry lead to an annual reduction in agricultural production and the outflow of rural population to cities. The absence of the General Scheme of public administration and the inconsistency of interaction at all levels of government reduce the efficiency of the industry and create a threat to the country’s food security. The results of the study were practical recommendations prepared by the author.

Abstract:
The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that the agricultural modernization plan will be realized in 2035. Through the use of new technologies, new equipment and new platforms, the new quality productivity will enable the innovative allocation of traditional agricultural production factors and the deep transformation and upgrading of industries, change the traditional production and management methods, bring digitalization into agriculture, and drive the development of rural agriculture as an inevitable trend. This project aims to explore the new quality productivity to empower agricultural development and promote the path of agricultural development research. This paper will take some towns in Anhui Province as an example to study the impact of digital new quality productivity on agricultural development in Anhui province, collect data from agricultural departments and related departments, establish a regression model for empirical analysis, and analyze from three aspects: the improvement degree of rural digital economic infrastructure, the proportion of new rural talents and talent support, and the development degree of rural agricultural digital commerce. Combined with the agricultural bureau and related data for empirical analysis. On the basis of adhering to ecological priority and green development, it is expected to provide theoretical support for the comprehensive upgrading of agriculture, the steady growth of rural economy and the all-round development of rural residents, and gather strength for the comprehensive construction of a socialist modern country.

Abstract:
In an effort to develop agriculture, especially as a protection for farmers against crop failure, the provincial government of Bali through the National Food Security program has established Badung Regency as a pilot project for implementing agricultural insurance through the Jasindo Insurance Company. This concept is applied as a guarantee for farmers in terms of price fluctuations of agricultural products that tend to decline, thus triggering the reduction of agricultural terrain that increases each year in Bali Province. This study goals to analyse the level of effectiveness of the agricultural insurance program and to analyze the factors that affect the level of effectiveness of the insurance program as an attempt to develop sustainable agriculture in Bongkasa Village, Abiansemal Region, Badung Regency. The method of analysis in this research is done quantitatively, namely this study uses two analyzes, namely descriptive analysis which is used to analyze the level of effectiveness of agricultural insurance programs and Confirmatory Factor Analysis which is used to confirm latent variables and indicators. The results of the analysis show that the level of effectiveness of the agricultural insurance program is 81.75 percent with effective criteria. The variable that has a dominant affect on the performance of the insurance program as an effort to develop sustainable agriculture is the process variable which is then followed by the output variable and the input variable.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the purposes and current outcomes of Bachelor of Agricultural Science degree program in Austria. It identifies the ability of higher agricultural education (HAE) curriculum to meet its purpose by way of validating its current outcomes. Design/methodology/approach The study used survey research design to purposively sample faculty members and graduating students under the bachelor degree program of Agricultural Science at BOKU University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna. In addition to a self-administered questionnaire, key informant interviews were also conducted to validate the data gathered. Findings The Bachelor of Agricultural Science degree program in Austria aims to develop the student scientific understanding of theoretical and practical aspects of agriculture. The program also gears toward developing their lifelong learning skills. Analysis of the difference reveals congruence in the perceptions of agricultural education professionals and students regarding the intended and expected learning outcomes of the HAE curriculum. The findings affirm how the purposes and outcomes of HAE curriculum have been met successfully and their implications to BS Agriculture curriculum in the University of the Philippines. The findings are grounded on the firm foundations of Austrian higher education system from their strategic curriculum planning, design, and implementation to evaluation where all stages are done in consultation with the various stakeholders. Truly a community of dedicated members of the academic and administrative staff is a powerful tool toward curricular advancement in HAE institutions. Practical implications The subject of this study, in particular BOKU University, provides a concrete example that not only the University of the Philippines Los Baños but all the other agricultural universities around the world could learn from. Social implications This study serves as a springboard for the development of new and innovative models of curriculum and instruction in the Philippines and other agricultural developing countries in the world. Originality/value This is an original study that provides discussion on the link between a developed country as a possible model and a developing country in terms of HAE. It helps the HAE institutions realize the ways on how their educational aspirations will turn into reality when it comes to fulfilling their role in supplying a well-trained and productive workforce for the agricultural economy toward sustainable agriculture development in one’s own country.
