Between 1998 and 2003, agriculture has generated an average of 40% of the GDP, 90% of food supply, 50% of employment, and 60% of the manufacturing raw materials. The Gezira Scheme is the country`s largest irrigation project lying between the Blue and White Niles and has a command area of about 504 thousand hectares.

A partial equilibrium multimarket model for Sudan is developed and used. Based on the findings, this book recommends the reduction of taxes on agricultural producers, the state-intervention on the production process, and the state-monopoly of marketing the agricultural products as strategies to enhance the performance of the irrigated agriculture in Sudan. ····· 10361118861

They were of the opinion that interference of the state in economic matters hampers the development of the personality of individuals. The outbreak of the Second World War reversed this way of thinking and gave a fillip to state participation in foreign trade. It was also realized that individuals or private sector organizations are usually not that equipped as it is required for handling foreign trade especially, in bulk buying and supply of goods which of course involves huge risk which private agencies cannot afford to undertake. In India, Government participates in the import and export business through its agencies like State Trading Corporation ltd. (STC) and Minerals and Metals Trading Corporation of India (MMTC) Ltd. The main emphasis of this book is to examine the role of MMTC in export business during the globalized regime and to see how far it has succeeded in achieving the assigned responsibilities. ····· 10361118821

We have designed a prototype model of food consumption of the elderly with the goal of calling the attention of producers and growers to the specific needs of this growing market segment. However, the food consumption habits of the elderly cannot be compacted into a single model, since this specific age group is not homogenous. By designing hypothetical models we are hoping to facilitate the further research of the issue. In the near future we want to test and try our general models in practice, involving the producers as well as the consumers. The models point at the specific needs of aging populations and their choice of food products based upon reasonable decisions and focusing on the future. Considerations of the future perspective are an important feature of this behavior, since it might significantly improve the quality of life and health awareness of the elderly, their decisions in the field of consumption, and ultimately their general health and welfare conditions. ····· 10361118608
