An econometric analysis of supply responsiveness in traditional agriculture: millet, sorghum and rice farmers in Mali
1981
Sako, B. | Cotterill, R.W.
Extract: This paper reviews grain policies in Mali, tests several hypotheses about farmers' responsiveness in traditional agriculture, and analyzes the welfare effects of government grain pricing policies. The data used are annual production and sale figures between 1960 and 1979. The major findings of the study strongly suggest that: (1) crop production and sale responds positively to government determined prices, and (2) the government program of subsidized imports has a definite adverse effect on producers, and overall social welfare in Mali.
