“…Other examples of DEA use in Brazilian beef cattle production can be seen in Gomes et al (2012) and Abreu et al (2012). Some recent uses of DEA in agriculture as a whole may be found, for instance, in Aldanondo-Ochoa et al (2013), Bojnec and Latruffe (2013), Falavigna et al (2013), Novo et al (2013), andSánchez-Zamora et al (2014).…”

-This study evaluated the performance of 21 beef cattle modal production systems that conduct only the raising phase. These production systems were developed in 21 municipalities in seven Brazilian states. We used two different DEA BCC models, corresponding to different points of view. Firstly we used an economic model that measured the ability of a production system to generate revenue with the preservation of native forest, using labor, capital, and current spending as inputs. The socio-environmental approach, corresponding to the second BCC model, uses the production factor labor as an output. In that model our interest was to assess whether the capital costs generate economic, environmental, and social benefits. Weight restrictions were imposed on the output variables of each model to explain the proposed viewpoints and to avoid inconsistent results. The results pointed out sources of inefficiency in terms of labor with low qualification, and use of bulls of questionable quality, factors that are common in extensive systems. These are some of the major bottlenecks in animal production systems as a whole.

“…Thus, the proportion of elderly people (OLD) may be negatively associated with the level of living conditions in a given rural area. Agriculture is a major source of economic capital in rural areas [59], and its role as an enduring emblem of rural areas is still evident in most developed economies [2,60].…”

The Impact of the Comprehensive Rural Village Development Program on Rural Sustainability in Korea

2018

An imperative challenge emerges from the demand to apply the scientific method in the assessment of recent agricultural and rural policies throughout the world. The objective of the present study was to conduct an ex-post quantitative evaluation of the Comprehensive Rural Village Development Program (CRVDP), a representative rural development policy operated by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, a central government agency in South Korea. The primary purpose of this program is to ensure sustainable rural society. This study found a moderate but significant positive impact of the policy in enhancing the standard of living in rural areas. The present paper concludes with suggesting some policy implications, limitations and future directions of policy evaluation studies.

“…El concepto de las dinámicas territoriales rurales se refiere a los procesos de desarrollo en la estructura socio-económica, el marco institucional, el capital medioambiental de las zonas rurales, y los cambios que acompañan a los efectos del desarrollo (Rimisp, 2007). En este sentido, se podría decir que hay dos tipos de zonas rurales que coexisten dentro de la UE: las que tienen las dinámicas de desarrollo definidas por el fuerte crecimiento económico, la cohesión social y la sostenibilidad ambiental, y aquellas en las que el estancamiento económico, la despoblación y la degradación del medio ambiente persisten (Sánchez-Zamora et al, 2014).…”
