    China's success in addressing food problems after adopting the reforms in 1978 has been nothing less than remarkable. Grain output (rice, wheat and maize) has almost doubled and most hunger has been eliminated. Ever since China embarked on its reform agenda more than 30 years ago, its economic growth and poverty reduction have been nothing less than remarkable. Agriculture has been an important contributor to these developments.

This report provides an overview of the FPIs, and a summary of two case studies in its application, the blue swimming crab (BSC) fisheries in Indonesia and the Philippines. A comparative analysis with an Icelandic lobster fishery is conducted as a benchmark, as the Icelandic lobster fishery is also export oriented and has been recognized as a well-managed fishery.

    In this paper, the authors examine the
    impact of reductions in barriers to migration on the
    consumption of rural households in China. The authors find
    that increased migration from rural villages leads to
    significant increases in consumption per capita, and that
    this effect is stronger for poorer households within
    villages. Household income per capita and non-durable
    consumption per capita both increase with out-migration, and

    This paper investigates how reductions
    of barriers to migration affect the decision of middle
    school graduates to attend high school in rural China.
    Change in the cost of migration is identified using
    exogenous variation across counties in the timing of
    national identity card distribution, which made it easier
    for rural migrants to register as temporary residents in
    urban destinations. The analysis first shows that timing of

    The aim of this report is to identify a set of concrete steps that the government of Mongolia might take to promote private-sector activity and greater integration with the global economy in a way that leads to job creation, broad-based growth and most importantly, poverty reduction. It does this by combining an assessment of the investment climate faced by firms (through analyses of firm and household surveys and supply chains in selected sectors) with a diagnostic trade integration study. The report is structured as follows.

    The paper revisits the site of a large,
    World Bank-financed, rural development program in China 10

    ended. The program emphasized community participation in
    multi-sectoral interventions (including farming, animal
    husbandry, infrastructure and social services). Data were
    collected on 2,000 households in project and nonproject
    areas, spanning 10 years. A double-difference estimator of

    In determining domestic water prices,
    policy makers often need to use information about the demand
    side rather than only relying on information about the
    supply side. Household surveys have frequently been employed
    to collect demand-side information. This paper presents a
    multiple bounded discrete choice household survey model. It
    discusses how the model can be utilized to collect and
    analyze information about the acceptability of different

    The Government of China has placed
    strong emphasis on addressing problems related to
    agriculture, farmers, and rural society, with the
    development of a "new socialist countryside"
    designated as a top priority for the Eleventh Five-Year Plan
    (2006-2010). The financing of public services in rural
    areas will be a key determinant of the Plan's success.

    Energy for heating, cooling, lighting,
    mechanical power, and various chemical processes is a
    fundamental requirement for both daily life and economic
    development. The negative impact on the environment of
    current energy systems is increasingly alarming, especially
    the global warming consequences of burning fossil fuels. The
    future requires change through the development and adoption
    of new supply technologies, through a successful search for
