Summary/Abstract |
In a recent article in the AJAE, Ito, Peterson, and Grant (IPG) investigated the nature of demand for rice in 14 Asian countries using a generalized covariance demand model. The results indicated that income elasticities have significantly declined. Moreover, income elasticities are negative in half of the countries studied, leading to the conclusion that rice is becoming an inferior good in Asia.

Summary/Abstract |
This paper provides an analysis of experiment station and farmer field data for Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand that shows, a stagnant yield potential and a diminished gap between potential and actual farm yields. This analysis finds that the larger yield gap is between farmers, rather than between the farmer and the experiment station.

Summary/Abstract |
In this paper, we attempt to understand the rice situation in the region and prospects for its future. The paper has three parts: the first section discusses the current level of food consumption in the region; the second section examines the sources of growth of rice production; the third section discusses a model we have used for projecting future growth in rice output
