Descripción
This paper presents a quantitative assessment of the potential farmers’ benefits from increases
in the productivity of the agricultural sector combined with the introduction of new marketing
strategies. The analysis is based on farm-programming models designed to capture the
important structural features of farm household decision making in Mozambique. The model
explicitly incorporates the harvest income target and satisfaction of household caloric
demand through home-consumption of own production before maximizing cash revenues
through marketed goods.
