From the author of the invaluable African Farm Management, this expanded textbook covers the theory and practice of economic decision-making in agriculture throughout the tropics. Written in a clear style, with an emphasis on verbal rather than mathematical description, this should be essential reading for all students of tropical agriculture.
Based on the author's widely used earlier text African Farm Management, this account updates the economic analysis of tropical agriculture and includes examples from all parts of the developing world. Writing in a clear, concise style, Professor Upton explains the essential theories of farm economics without numerous mathematical formulae. This account is completely revised, with increased emphasis on 'farm household economics', in which farms are seen as consumers as well as producers. Containing a new chapter on the economics of irrigated agriculture. This book provides an invaluable economic framework for better understanding the management of farming systems in the tropics, and will be welcomed by students of tropical agriculture worldwide.
