Öğe Determinants of household food security of small scale farmers in gedarif and rahad localities "high agriculture production area" of Eastern Sudan(Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2018) Hamed Elneel, Faiez Ahmed MohamedThe study aims to assess the determinants of small scale farmer household food security among Gedarif and Rahad localities from eastern Sudan. Data used relies heavily on the results of sample survey of 336 households in 8 villages collected during 2014. Analytical techniques employed included descriptive statistics, and multinomial regression model. The study has shown that, land, credit access; and technology using in agriculture are most factors determining household food security in the study area. In the light of the findings from the study, it is recommended that policy makers should increase effort to make micro-credit accessible to rural farmers targeting agriculture and livestock sector to create more income and food diversification, therefore using technology, extension, and training.Öğe The potential of bilateral trade between Egypt And Nile basin countries: A gravity model approach(Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2018) Shelaby, Ayman; Mohamed, Mohamed; Salah, SayedTThis research aims at determining the factors affecting the agricultural bilateral trade flows of Egypt with the Nile Basin countries using the gravity model. Basic and Augmented models have been estimated for both Egyptian agricultural exports and imports. The growth of Egyptian exports to the Nile Basin countries is affected by GDP of both sides. There's a great chance for Egypt to increase the exports to Nile Basin countries by increasing GDP. Distance has a negative impact due to the poor and insufficient transportation infrastructure of Nile Basin countries. Which give more attention to the development of roads and Nile shipping to increase bilateral trade between Egypt and Nile basin countries.Öğe Determinants of choice of market outlet among smallholder poultry farmers in Oyo State, Nigeria(Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2018) Olufadewa, Mayokun Samuel; Obı-Egbedı, OgheneruemuThe study examined the factors that influence choice of market outlet among smallholder poultry farmers in Oyo state, Nigeria. Primary data were collected using structured questionnaires. A multistage sampling technique was used to select 200 poultry farmers from two Agricultural Development Zones in Oyo state Nigeria. Multinomial logit results showed that household size, contractual agreement, road condition and total number of birds on the farm influenced the choice of local market outlet while years of formal education, years of poultry farming experience, price information and access to extension officers influenced the choice of urban market outlet. The study recommends that extension officers should provide market information to the poultry farmers regularly to enhance smallholder farmers’ commercializationÖğe Yabancı turistlerin destinasyon seçimine sığınmacıların etkisi: Türkiye’ye yönelik bir araştırma(Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2018) Aratimur, Volkan; Akgündüz, YılmazBu araştırmanın amacı Türkiye’yi bir destinasyon olarak seçmek isteyen yabancı turistlerin, ülkedeki sığınmacıların varlığından nasıl etkilendiklerini belirlemektir. Bu kapsamda destinasyon seçimini etkileyen itici-çekici faktörler esas alınarak seyahat alışkanlığına sahip yabancı uyruklu bireylere uygulanmak üzere dokuz senaryo hazırlanmıştır. Nisan-Mayıs 2017 aylarında uluslararası seyahat siteleri aracılığıyla, çevrimiçi olarak hazırlanan anket formuyla ve kolayda örnekleme yöntemiyle 412 geçerli veri toplanmıştır. Bulgular, fiziksel ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak amacıyla ve doğal, tarihi ve kültürel çekicilikleri görmek amacıyla seyahat etmek isteyen bireylerin destinasyon tercihlerinde sığınmacıların varlığından olumsuz olarak etkilendiğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca snobizm etkisiyle, fiyat odaklı olarak, sosyal arayış ve keşif amaçlı, alış-veriş olanaklarından yararlanmak amacıyla ve güçlü imaja sahip bir destinasyona seyahat etmek isteyen bireylerin destinasyon tercihlerinde destinasyondaki sığınmacıların varlığından olumsuz olarak etkilenmedikleri belirlenmiştir.Öğe Weighted average information criterion for selection of an asymmetric price relationship(Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2018) Acquah, Henry De-GraftTThis study evaluates the performance of the recently developed model selection criteria (WIC) against commonly used alternatives (AIC and BIC) in terms of their ability to recover the true asymmetric data generating process. Monte Carlo simulation results indicate that the performance of the model selection methods depends on the sample size, the difference in asymmetric adjustment parameters and the amount of noise in the model used in the application. WIC outperforms AIC and BIC under stable conditions such as a large sample and small noise levels. Additionally, WIC outperforms AIC and BIC as the difference between asymmetric adjustment speeds increases. These results suggest that WIC is a very reliable and useful criterion in asymmetric price transmission model selection.Öğe Marketing efficiency in the distributive trade channel for onions in Osun State(Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat Üniversitesi, 2018) Adegbite, Adedeji; Adejobi, Adedeji OlusayoThe perishable nature of vegetables demands an effective and reliable chain/channel of distribution for fast disposal. Performance of the existing distributive channels, marketing efficiencies of the channel operators and factors that influenced the marketing efficiencies of the marketing operators are integral to effective marketing. Much attention has not been given to this in the agricultural marketing literature in Nigeria. Marketing efficiency analysis revealed that marketing of onions by bulk merchants, wholesalers and retailers is most efficient in one of the selected markets at 149%, 343% and 275% respectively. Transaction loss, sales volume, transportation cost, wages, association dues, stall rent and cost of capital are factors that affect onion marketers in the study area.
