Small farmer production in Tanzania: constraints and supply response
Kaganda, Charles P. /
Abstract:
This paper discusses the supply response of small farmer with respect to three factors: incentives, constraints and innovations. It descibes a conceivable development process starting from a situatiation where capacity is under utilised because price incentives are not powerfull enough to induce the farmer to produce more to a situation where the farmer reaches his apacity limit in terms of the crop that is given priority by the government through price changes. Finally it traces production increases in response to technical innovations.
