This book is addressed to scientists, researchers, development specialists and policy makers who deal with natural resources and agriculture in the developing countries. It aims to (1) provide evidence of the impact of natural resource management research (NRMR) in the CGIAR; (2) establish a methodological foundation for impact assessments of NRMR; and (3) draw up a set of lessons for future impact assessment studies. The book consists of three main parts. Part I (chapters 1-3) provides the definitional, historical, and theoretical background for NRMR impact assessment in the CGIAR. Part II (chapters 4-11) presents the methods and results of seven case studies on the impact of NRMR projects carried out in the CGIAR. Two summary chapters (12 and13) are presented in part III. The book has a subject index.
Increased concern about the environmental and natural resource implications of
agriculture has given rise to an emphasis on research that calls attention to these
issues in developing countries. National and international agricultural research
systems, including the research Centres under the Consultative Group on
International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), have intensified research on natural
resource management (NRM) both in terms of budget allocation and priority
setting.
The time chosen for establishing here, those Colonies which were to give
character to the Republic, was the century beginning in 1620*. This period, you
will observe, commences a hundred and twentyeight years after the discovery of
America. It is a remarkable fact that He who “ determines the times before
appointed” to nations, kept our “habitation” almost entirely unoccupied by any
colony or association of civilized men for more than a century and a quarter after
that discovery.
Refinements in the Economic Analysis of Investment Projects
Written by authors of established texts in this area, this book is a companion volume to the classic The Capital Budgeting Decision. Exploring this key topic in corporate finance the authors examine the complexities of capital budgeting as well as the opportunities to improve the decision process where risk and time are important elements. Containing ‘Global Aspects’ sections that cover cross-border decision-making, this book also emphasizes the application of capital budgeting techniques to a variety of issues, including the hugely significant ‘buy versus lease’ decision that cost corporations billions each year. It gives in-depth coverage to: real options - the value of a project must take into consideration the flexibility that it provides management, acknowledging the option of making decisions in the future when more information is available decomposing cash flows - a project consists of many series of cash flows and each series deserves its own specific risk-adjusted discount rate. Decomposing the cash flows of an investment highlights the fact that while managers are generally aware that divisions and projects have different risks, too often they neglect the fact that the cash flow components may also have different risks, with severe consequences on the quality of the decision-making. Designed to assist those making business decisions at all levels, this volume is essential reading for all those working in or studying capital budgeting.
