Description: Das Projekt "Land Degradation, Impoverishment and Survival Strategies of Rural Households: Farmer's Perception and Policy Implication" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Deutscher Akademischer Austausch Dienst. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Universität Berlin (Humboldt-Univ.), Albrecht Daniel Thaer-Institut für Agrar- und Gartenbauwissenschaften - Ressourcenökonomie.Objectives: 1. Generate some stylised facts on the behaviour of smallholder farmers and provide answer(s) to questions such as what are the economic responses (survival strategies) of small farmers as land gets degraded from time to time? 2. Closer examination of the causes and extents of land degradation and degree (dimension) of impoverishment from the farmers perspective. 3. Provide an overall evaluation of the macro policies, activities of governmental, and NGOs towards resource conservation, disaster prevention and preparedness strategy and formulate major policy issues that emerge from the findings. 4. Scrutinizing the efficiency of recently adopted Structural Adjustment Program (SAP) and liberal economic policies towards improving the ability of the country to produce food crops in surplus growing regions at the lower opportunity cost of the domestic inputs employed than obtaining it by import or food aid.
