1964
Dahle, Robert D. | Jones, E Walton | Nichols, T. Everett, Jr
Local communities and area development groups throughout the country are seeking to expand industrial employment and markets for agricultural products. An expansion of agricultural processing industries is particularly attractive since it supposedly accomplishes both of these objectives simultaneously. Development groups are action oriented and require information presented in such a way that specific follow‐up action programs can be implemented. This article summarizes an approach which permits the integration of the two decision‐making entities involved in determining processing feasibility—the processing firm and the farm firm. The approach developed in this article provides a starting point for consideration of processing feasibility by action agencies, raw product producers and potential investors in processing plants.

1964
Hayami, Yujiro
This study explores the historical dynamism of Japanese agriculture from the side of fertilizer demand. It is intended to extract lessons for today's emerging nations from Japan's experience of agricultural development. The causes of enormous increase in fertilizer input, which played a key role in raising agricultural productivity in Japan, are identified, and their contributions are measured on the basis of aggregative time‐series data for the period 1883–1937. Using an approach similar to Griliches', estimates are provided to support the hypothesis of Herdt and Mellor postulated on U.S.India comparative study.
