Abstract:
Scientific interest in short supply chains (SSC) and local food has increased in the past decade. Due to the concentration of trade, sale opportunities for small sized agricultural producers has decreased. Short supply chains can offer alternate opportunities for them in trading. Therefore, it is necessary to examine their profitability and role in rural development. In the article, producer satisfaction with marketplaces, by means of primary survey is investigated. The sample area consisted of marketplaces with different sizes and types, and were located in a 40-kilometer-radius area of the capital city, Budapest, and Gyöngyös (located in the Mátra region). Paper-questionnaires with 214 market-producers between August and December of 2018 were carried out, in 22 different places. The survey is based on conventional markets (and market-halls), producer markets, and an eco-market. Results showed that differences between producer markets and conventional ones were more determining than simple territorial differences. Differences between conventional markets of the two areas were not statistically significant. In light of the results, it is worth launching future studies or campaigns that deal with rural consumer susceptibility on producer markets. In this survey, rural producer markets – that could increase producer satisfaction – were not typical.

Abstract:
Pyogenic wound infections are the one of the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Some of the common etiological agents responsible are ., and . The antimicrobial resistance has become a global challenge and the resistant pathogen poses a grave threat to the public health worldwide. Pyogenic bacteria producing biofilm has a potential to cause significant mortality and morbidity in human. The present study was carried out to determine the bacteriological spectrum of wound infections and their antibiogram to commonly used antibiotics and to detect the biofilm production by the isolates. This cross sectional study was carried out in the department of Microbiology, Adichunchanagiri institute of Medical sciences from September 2016 to August 2017. Two hundred and forty samples from various wounds were collected and processed as per standard procedures and biofilm production was detected by Congo red agar method.Out of 240 pus isolates, species were the most commonly isolated (48.85%) followed by species (11.7%). Biofilm was produced by 49.2% isolates .Majority of Gram negative bacilli were susceptible to Colistin (100%) followed by Tigecycline (Biofilm producers 75%, biofilm non producers 66.7%).All Gram positive isolates were susceptible to Vancomycin and Teicoplanin (100%) followed by Linezolid (biofilm producer 98.8%, biofilm non producer 97.8%) . Routine surveillance for wound infections along with early identification and adopting efficient control protocol against biofilm forming organism plays an important role in the prevention of the most serious infections.

Abstract:
Rural producer organizations are being increasingly recognized for their efforts in improving the livelihoods of small farmers across the developing world. Caught between microfinance and commercial banks, these organizations however often struggle to access the necessary funds to bring their product to market or finance much-needed infrastructure. In recent years, a growing recognition of the problem has led to the emergence of a new generation of specialized financial institutions (commonly called alternative lenders). Using innovative supply-chain oriented strategies such as reverse factoring, these lenders aim to catalyze the emergence of local financial markets that meet the needs of rural producer organizations. This thesis evaluates the need for these financial innovations, their impact as well as the business case for lending to rural producer organizations. This assessment is achieved through documentary research, literature review and three case studies of coffee rural producer organizations in the Mexican states of Oaxaca, Veracruz and Chiapas. This thesis concludes that although a RPO financing gap was indeed identified in Mexico in the early 2000s, this gap was found to be receding in recent years due to the Mexican government's success in encouraging commercial lending to the sector through FIRA, a second-tier development bank, and changes in the financial regulatory framework allowing the rise of two categories of non-bank financial institutions, the SOFOL and SOFOM. The study also found a business case for profitable lending to rural producer organizations. All three studied organizations, despite their challenges, were found to be dynamic businesses with financing needs undoubtedly beyond what the microfinance market has to offer. This thesis however identifies several risk factors for potential lenders: vulnerability to price fluctuations and local competition, the politicized nature of RPOs, dependence on public and private subsidies as well as low internal capacity in financial management and accounting. This thesis evaluated the impact of recent financial innovations to be moderately positive at worst and transformational at best on rural producer organizations. The loans provided by alternative lenders allowed the organizations to gain precious credit experience while capitalizing on market opportunities that could have otherwise been out of reach. Finally, this thesis concluded by suggesting a few strategies that could be used by alternative lenders to maximize their impact, including adjusting their interest rates to market conditions, working with local financial institutions, diversifying their client base, taking more risks, strengthening RPO capacity through capacity-building programs and leveraging RPO internal credit funds to unlock underserved rural microfinance markets.

Abstract:
This research seeks to contribute towards the understanding of economic linkage within the rural context by exploring the relationship between rurally located small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and their purchase of producer (business) services. In addition, the work considers other inter-rural and intra-rural differences, in both firm (SME) behaviour and firm characteristics. Whilst the subject of linkages has been explored by other researchers, the market town and SME focus of this thesis provides a more spatially contained framework than is often encountered within this type of research. By using four towns of similar size and structure contained within two noticeably different counties, the work is able to explore difference within the rural setting. Given its emphasis on market towns, rural areas, SMEs, the service sector and indigenous growth potential, the work contributes to current debates in both academia and in national and European government policy. The underlying hypothesis is that integration, in terms of local spending on producer services, is a function of a firm's characteristics. In order to test this hypothesis, data was collected from four rural towns, and a logistic regression model was constructed using variables that described both firms' characteristics and proportion of spend on services in their resident town. The model was then tested using data collected firom a further two towns. This thesis shows that there is a relationship between a firm's characteristics and the location of the firm's producer service spending, enhancing our understanding of firms operating within the rural context. Key characteristic variables that are shown to have a relationship with producer service spend location are: firm Standard Industrial Classification (SIC), size (in terms of total sales, total number of hours worked by all staff), total spend on producer services by firm and distance that the current location is from the firm's previous location. Given the changing role and nature of rural firms, this research provides timely information concerning the relationship between firms and service providers.

Abstract:
Essa pesquisa objetiva compreender a dinâmica espacial do Sudoeste Paulista, através de abordagem econômica e social do espaço rural, analisando e refletindo sobre o universo da produção agrícola familiar e as possibilidades futuras deste setor frente às políticas públicas, as possíveis mudanças no dinamismo regional, e os limites que os mesmos têm enfrentado com relação à estrutura fundiária, à produção, à comercialização, aos recursos financeiros, ao acesso à tecnologia, à assistência técnica, sua representação e atuação em associações, cooperativas, sindicatos e outras entidades. As áreas pesquisadas fazem parte do Escritório de Desenvolvimento Rural de Presidente Prudente, composto de 21 municípios, entre os estratos de área de até 100 hectares. No levantamento de campo foram entrevistados produtores rurais, destacando-se questões ligadas à unidade de produção, bem como à unidade social dos agricultores familiares. A região estudada, embora apresente, desde sua formação histórica, alta concentração fundiária de caráter capitalista, com predomínio da atividade pecuária de corte extensiva, não levou, necessariamente, ao desaparecimento das unidades de produção familiares, fossem elas pequenas ou médias. Tampouco levou a uma homogeneização da produção; antes, observa-se uma dinâmica que muitas vezes inclui múltiplos caminhos, os quais proporcionam uma adaptação contraditória frente às novas circunstâncias sociais e de produção. Com relação às políticas públicas para o setor destacado neste estudo, verifica-se que o Programa Nacional de Fortalecimento da Agricultura Familiar não foi, até agora, suficiente para atender, de forma eficaz, os produtores familiares. A comercialização indireta da produção e a insegurança com relação aos preços foram fatores destacados, entre outros aspectos, como limitantes para o produtor familiar, que mostrou resistência em adotar formas de organização social que pudessem protegê-lo. Entretanto, através de estratégias, esses produtores têm sido os responsáveis por parte significativa da produção agropecuária regional, bem como da absorção de mão-de-obra no campo. Neste sentido, analisando-se processos sociais concretos, apreendem-se a diversidade e a complexidade de possibilidades neles contidas, podendo, então, apontar caminhos que possam trazer transformações ao dinamismo regional.<br>This study aims to understand the space dynamics of the Paulista Southwestern region, through the economic and social approach of the rural, analyzing and reflecting on the overall family agricultural production and its future possibilities before public policies, the possible shifts in the regional dynamics, and the limits that they have faced in relation to land structure production, trade, financial resources, access to technology, and technical assistance, its representation and performance in associations, cooperatives, unions and other entities. The areas researched are parts of the Presidente Prudente Rural Development Office, formed by 21 counties, in up-to-100-hectare area levels. During the field survey, rural producers were interviewed, emphasizing matters connected to the production unit, as well as to the social unit of the family farmers. The region considered, although it has presented a high-level land concentration of capitalist character since its historical formation, and in which the animal husbandry activity of extensive slaughter has been predominant, has necessarily led neither to the disappearance of the little or large family production units, nor to a production homogenity; instead, I have observed a dynamics that has often included multiple ways, which have provided a contradictory adaptation before the new social and production circumstances. In relation to public policies for the field focused in this study, I have verified that the Family Agriculture Development National Program has not been enough to assist the family producers efficiently up to now. The indirect commercialization of the production and the insecurity in relation to prices were the main aspects in focus, among others, as limits for the family producer, who has showed resistance in adapting ways of social organization which could protect them. Nevertheless, through strategies, these very producers have been responsible for a meaningful part of the regional agricultural and animal husbandry production, as well as for labour absorption in the country. Therefore, in analyzing concrete social processes, I have realized the diversity and complexity of possibilities within them, so that, I believe it is able to indicate ways that could bring changes to the regional dynamics.

Abstract:
Broadband telecommunications infrastructure is considered to be an economic development necessity by a significant number of policymakers and economic development professionals, particularly in rural areas. Across the United States, a considerable amount of money is being invested in the deployment of broadband networks based, at least in part, on the premise that economic development benefits will obtain. However, there is a general lack of academic theory explaining the mechanism(s) by which broadband telecommunications can produce economic development results. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impacts of broadband at the level of the firm. It adopts as its central working hypothesis the â Producer Networkâ concept originally developed at Virginia Tech, which suggests that economic development benefits may result from Internet users having access to multiple megabits-per-second of symmetrical, affordable bandwidth. It employs a qualitative grounded theory methodology to identify firm-level effects of broadband use. The studyâ s findings revealed that a majority of businesses in the case study communities were using much slower Internet connections than had been hypothesized, were using third-party, off-site web hosting, and did not believe they needed â Big Broadband.â Informants to the study believed that the economic development potential of broadband in the short term depended on the ubiquitous deployment of affordable connectivity, and were more concerned with reliability than bandwidth. The study concludes that the â Producer Networkâ is better understood as a long-term goal than as a model to explain the current firm-level applications of the commodity Internet. It suggests that policymakers should consider broadband not as a panacea for economic development, but as a tool whose potential for impact is influenced by a number of economic, political, social, and cultural forces originating at the community, national, and global levels. Based on the literature review and the field research, it proposes a general model for broadband telecommunications in rural economic development.<br>Master of Public and International Affairs

Além disso, as mudanças tecnológico-logístico-sanitárias que vêm sendo adotadas pelos laticínios, se dão num contexto em que cada vez mais cresce a importância da tecnologia, da ciência e da informação nos processos produtivos. A pecuária leiteira vem se constituindo numa atividade relevante para a reprodução social dos pequenos e médios proprietários rurais, na medida em que proporciona maior liquidez que os demais produtos. Diante do exposto, deve ser levada em consideração a singularidade do espaço agrário regional, que apresenta: estrutura fundiária desconcentrada, policultura (com destaque para a viticultura de mesa) e o predomínio do trabalho familiar. Neste sentido, a pecuária leiteira adquire significativa relevância para os proprietários rurais da região, mesmo com a viticultura sendo o carro-chefe da agropecuária.

Besides that, the technologicallogistical- sanitary changes which have been adopted by dairies, happen in a context that is increasing more and more the importance of technology, science and information in the productive processes. The dairy cattle is becoming an outstanding activity for the social reproduction of the small and medium rural owners, as it provides a month liquidity that no other agricultural product offers.

Abstract:
Abstract Following an introduction into the functions of the price system and a general description of markets, this chapter examines three market models in more detail: first, perfect competition viewed from the levels of the individual agricultural producer and of the whole industry; secondly, monopoly; and thirdly, monopsony. The use of monopoly power in agriculture is discussed, as well as different types of price movements in agriculture.

Abstract:
The aim of the paper was to present the development of agricultural producer groups in Mazovia - region in Central Poland with capital of the Voivodeship in Warsaw. Data and literature analysis, interviews and descriptive methods were used. In the first part the authors present theoretical background of cooperation in agriculture based on social capital. The second part presents the main results of the research: the quantitative development of producer groups in the period 2007-2017, the structure of agricultural products produced by the groups and their legal forms. Currently most of groups operate as limited liability companies and co-operatives. Also the main benefits and barriers concerning creation and development of agricultural producer groups were identified. The main barriers were unwillingness to cooperate, mistrust, and high administrative and legal burdens. On the basis of the study – in order to help develop agricultural groups - it is recommended to strengthen social capital in the rural areas (especially important is overcoming mental barriers and development of trust), educate farmers (management, accounting, etc.) and promote good practice. The conclusions of the study may be applicable in countries where producer groups’ development is low (as Lithuania).

Full text
Abstract:
Value-added taxes (VAT) are applied in the European Union (EU) Member States in accordance with Directive 2006/112/EC to limit distortions in competition in the common European market. Latvia is one of the five EU Member States where reduced VAT rates are not applied to food products, and the food is taxed at the standard rate of 21%. For this reason, food producer organisations discuss the introduction of a reduced VAT rate for selected fruits, berries, vegetables as well as potato grown in Latvia. The overall aim of the present research is to assess the effect of reduction of the VAT rate from 21 to 5% for selected food groups: fresh fruits, berries, vegetables and potato produced in Latvia. The research estimated a decrease in the price for the mentioned food groups, identified a potential increase in consumption and forecasted the effect of the VAT rate reduction on the amount of tax revenue collected by the central government. The research found that the reduction of the VAT rate from 21 to 5 % would result in a price decrease ranging from 1.9 to 3.5% for fruits, berries, vegetables and potato, the consumption of fresh fruits and berries would increase, on average, in the range of 1.2–2.3%, while the consumption of fresh vegetables would increase, on average, in the range of 1.2–2.1%, yet in a short-term the tax revenue paid to the government would decrease in the range of EUR 3.9–5.7 million. Nevertheless, in a medium-term, a significant positive effect on the producers of fruits, berries, vegetables and potato that operate legally in the agricultural industry could be expected, as the negative effect of the shadow economy decreases.

Abstract:
The aim of the article was to characterize the aspects of social and economic conditions and circumstances for the establishment and operation of groups of agricultural producers in Poland. The discussion is theoretical. In the article the monographic method was used. The following issues were subsequently examined: the nature and status of groups of producers in Poland, the social capital of farmers, advantages and obstacles in the cooperation of agricultural farmers and financial aid opportunities under the Rural Development Programmes for 2007–2013 and 2014–2020. As the example, the model of agricultural producer groups functioning in Poland was described. The results of the consideration has broad spectrum. It follows from the analysis conducted that the reasons for creating groups of producers are economic benefits related to production on a higher scale and to achievement of synergies through acting together. They also include EU financial aid opportunities. The benefits are also of a social character and are related, among others, to farmers learning how to act together as well as to increased trust in cooperation. In spite of numerous benefits that may arise from acting together, there are also certain obstacles related to the level of knowledge or educational background of farmers, typical responses to change or lack of trust between organisation members. This is often an effect of negative past experiences connected with overall socialisation that affects post-communist nations.

Abstract:
The paper explores the possibilities of restructuring the activities of rural tourism in Serbia, during the COVID pandemic. Having in mind the shock experienced by the tourism sector, as well as the area of rural tourism, digital marketing of agricultural and food products is imposed as one of the solutions. Namely, through online platforms and modern logistics, producers can consolidate business revenues during a pandemic, when rural tourism is almost impossible. The move can be seen as a short-term business restructuring caused by a pandemic. In that way, with the measures of state support, the area of rural tourism in Serbia can be preserved, in order to be ready for the period after the pandemic. Digitization enables small agricultural producers to survive and strengthen their market position in conditions of intensified global competition. This is achieved through digital cooperation, which can play the role of one large agricultural producer, thus achieving the effects of economies of scale, size and breadth.

Abstract:
Due to the specific features of the land factor, under market conditions, there is a tendency towards income deprivation of farms in relation to their surroundings. One way to improve this situation is to create a system of market institutions for farmer-recipient transactions. The issue of the position of the agricultural producer in the food supply chain is widely described in the literature on the subject. Nevertheless, practical analyses showing the real impact of the marketing position on economic results of farm are still rare. Therefore, the aim of this article is to assess the relationship between market integration and agricultural selling prices and, as a consequence, the level of global output and household income. The analysis is based on primary data from surveys of over 700 small-scale family farms in Poland. The choice of small-scale farms was deliberate, as these entities are the most discriminated against in the food supply chain. Explaining this process is key to improving the economic situation of small-scale farming and constitutes a premise for the objectives of agricultural policy and creating business strategy. The results of the research indicate that there is a positive correlation between the level of integration of an agricultural holding and sales prices for selected groups of agricultural products. This, in turn, leads to the improvement of economic condition of farms more closely integrated with the market.

Abstract:
The share of products with higher added value is constantly decreasing in Slovakia's agri-food exports and the share of basic agricultural raw materials with low added value is increasing. Commercial retail chains sell especially products without added value. On the other side, products that have undergone a processing are imported from abroad. According to the latest survey of the Slovak Food Chamber of Agriculture in 2016, the share of Slovak products on retailers and retail chains is only 39.91%, with 38.9% in 2015 and 2014.with increase of only 1%. Most of the agri-food products produced in Slovakia are at most represented in commodities: eggs, milk, honey and at least in the following categories: processed vegetables, packaged meat and processed fruit. The main objective of presented paper is to show, that Slovak farmers rather sell raw milk instead of selling added value processed products. A big difference can be found between milk and dairy products, where up to 20% is the difference in the representation of these products in the commercial chains. This fact means, that the Slovak farmers produce enough milk, but it is convenient for them to sell milk as a raw material instead of processing it in their own direction and selling the processed products. Raw milk is exported abroad and then comes back to the Slovak market with an added value as processed product. The survey, which was carried out on all trade chains, showed that the share of Slovak milk in the chain is 63%. An important finding is also the presence of individual dairy products that are produced in Slovakia. The result of the survey showed that the largest share of Slovak dairy products in the domestic market is 51% cottage cheese and sweet / sour cream 55% lowest ripening cheese 40%and processed cheese and cheese spread 43%.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of easing credit constraints for rural producers in Mexico through loans provided by a national public development finance institution. In contrast to most of the existing literature, the study focuses on the effect of medium-sized loans over a two- to four-year time horizon. This paper looks at the effects of such loans on production and investment decisions, input use, and yields. Using a multiple treatment methodology, it explores the differential impacts of providing liquidity for working capital versus providing credit for investments in fixed assets. It finds that loans increased the likelihood that producers grow and sell certain key annual crops, in particular among recipients of working capital loans. It also finds significant effects on production value and sales (per hectare), with similar impacts for recipients of both types of loans, with gains in yields driven by changes in labor quality and more intensive use of key inputs. There is no evidence of significant effects on the purchase of large machinery, but there are impacts on the acquisition of cattle. Overall, the results reported in this paper suggest that lack of liquidity is at least as important as lack of funding for new investment in capital for rural producers in Mexico. Producers benefit from easing their credit constraints, regardless of the type of loan used for that purpose.
