was conducted. Articles were classified according to the type of quantitative technique employed. Trends were identified and analyzed to reveal changes in quantitative techniques favored by agricultural economics researchers. 1. Econometrics. These articles employed some form of regression analysis, analysis of variance, or in the 1930's and 40's, correlation analysis. These articles were further divided into two subcategories labeled as single equation and simultaneous equation models. The single equation categoryalso included the articles from the 30's and 40's that relied on analysis of variance and correlation. 2. Maihemaucal Programming. Thiscategory was also divided into two subcategories labeled linear programming and nonlinear programming.

In Oklahoma, manufacturing employment continues to grow, playing a crucial role in the state's economy. The proportion of state employment in manufacturing rose from 12 percent in 1960 to 15 percent in 1970. Since then, the growth rate of manufacturing jobs has been even greater. In addition, many of the jobs created were in rural communities—from 1963 through 1971, 54 percent were located in communities smaller than 15, 000. State and community leaders planning for future growth could benefit from a manpower analysis. State leaders need to insure a sufficient supply of manpower in appropriate occupations. Community leaders could benefit from a manpower analysis estimating occupational needs resulting from changes in local economic base.

“…However, it is a policy-based commonality. Hence, it is theoretically more easily reversible than tastes, technology, and other institutional factors accounting for structural transformation in the process of economic development. An economy-wide, multisectoral framework is needed to analyze the macroeconomic influences, particularly the various inter-relationships that affect agricultural development (Byerlee and Halter, 1974). Of the multisectoral models that have been developed for economy-wide analysis, the computable general equilibrium (CGE) models represent the most advanced analytical tool.…”

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of changes in the external trade environment and domestic economic policies on the agricultural development of Malaysia. The scope of this research also includes providing further insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the computable general equilibrium (CGE) methodology for agricultural policy analysis. The first analysis focuses on the export agriculture sector which encompasses Malaysia's two primary agricultural commodities, rubber and palm oil. Heavily dependent on exports of rubber in the 1950s and 1960s, Malaysia has since built a more diversified economy with strong emphasis on manufacturing. Export agriculture, however, is still an important component of the national economy. The second objective examines the influence of domestic policy on agricultural development. The simulation results demonstrate the growing resiliency of the Malaysian economy to external shocks. Also, they point to the domestic economy's ability to buffer internal policy-induced distortions.1 This trend is so commonly observed that the phenomenon qualifies as a stylized fact of modern economic development (Krueger et aI., 1988). However, it is a policy-based commonality. Hence, it is theoretically more easily reversible than tastes, technology, and other institutional factors accounting for structural transformation in the process of economic development.
