dc.descriptionThe agricultural economy of Malaysia has traditionally been export-oriented. Cassava was the 1st of the export crops, established in the 1850s. Malaysia is a land-surplus, labor-scarce economy; thus cassava was planted in a shifting cultivation system giving it the image of a soil-depleting crop. Data are also provided on yields, production systems, production costs and labor utilization, and pricing and market efficiency. The national plan through 2000 emphasizes tree crops, which could affect cassava production. (CIAT)
dc.descriptionLa economia agricola de Malaysia se ha orientado tradicionalmente hacia la exportacion. La yuca, uno de los primeros cultivos de exportacion, se establecio en la decada de 1850. Malaysia posee una economia con exceso de tierras y escasez de mano de obra; por tanto, como la yuca se producia en sistemas de cultivo migratorio, se creo la imagen de que la yuca es un cultivo que agota el suelo. Tambien se proporcionan datos sobre rendimientos, sistemas de produccion, costos de produccion, utilizacion de mano de obra, precios y eficiencia del mercado. El plan nacional hasta el ano 2000 enfatiza los cultivos arboreos, lo cual podria afectar la produccion de yuca. (CIAT)
