Este facto espelha, em parte, a atitude desconfiada que os bancoscomerciais têm para com a prática agrícola, no que se refere às garantias paraa concessão de crédito. Aliás, a restrição nos fundos não se assiste apenas porparte da banca. Consta que o Governo, na sua alocação orçamental, temsacrificado bastante a agricultura. Em termos de desembolsos de fundos doOrçamento do Estado para o sector, a actual margem ronda nos 8%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #333333; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New

type='text'>Mozambique: Urges access to international markets</title><content type='html'>AID IS NOT THE ANSWER FOR AFRICA - COMPETITIVENESS IS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most important challenges facing Africa today include improvement of rural infrastructure and world market access, its agriculture and Rural Development .&lt;br /&gt;Which constitutes the basis of development in Africa, but has not yet succeeded in harnessing the potential required to attain food self-sufficiency, improve family income and food security.&lt;br /&gt;Over the past few years, there have been more agricultural imports than exports. The latter dropped from 8 to 3.4 percent in the last two decades.&lt;br /&gt;Despite scientific and technological progress registered around the world coupled with significant advances in world food production, about three billion people, representing half of the planet's population, live in abject poverty on an income of less than two dollars a day, most of them in developing countries, particularly Africa, Asia and Latin America.&lt;br /&gt;Besides, about a billion people, almost a quarter of inhabitants of developing countries, survive on a dollar a day.&lt;br /&gt;In Africa, average food production per person fell over the past few years.The main cause of this situation is low productivity that is itself a consequence of low investments, the Mozambican lack of access to appropriate technologies, the fragility of markets and the lack of access to credit under affordable terms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today  food-poor but cash-rich countries, spooked by last season's high food prices, are racing to snap up rights to farmland in developing countries and breadbasket nations. They're aiming to boost their own food security and cash in on what might prove one of the few sound investments left in a world in financial crisis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BUT,this global land grab could spell the end of small-scale farming and rural livelihoods in numerous places around the world. Just how much security the new land investments may provide countries and corporations also remains uncertain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; "That's the nightmare scenario, that (investors) jump in, lose their money, the operation shuts down, and five years later you have recriminations and rusting machinery" &lt;strong&gt;as well as more landless peasants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Crop experts also warn that past efforts to create huge-scale corporate grain farming have regularly failed, one reason family-owned farms continue to dominate in the United States, one of the world's biggest grain producers. They point to Soviet Union's disastrous collective farms and the collapse of a variety of large-scale colonial farming efforts in Africa as indications of what could go wrong.  &lt;strong&gt;talk with to us..351 96 008 1510&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/26721494-110718452671370153?l=agrotvrural.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26721494/posts/default/110718452671370153'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/26721494/posts/default/110718452671370153'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://agrotvrural.blogspot.com/2008/09/comrcio-internacional-e-nossa-moral.html' title='Mozambique: Urges access to international markets'/><author><name>TRADER or FACILITATOR</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13504557380927587442</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lWSpA5vYSjo/SR2LaOd7jRI/AAAAAAAAALs/4bTiQJHeIBY/S220/al.jpg'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26721494.post-2134134971476979684</id><published>2008-06-06T17:35:00.009+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-04T18:03:46.166Z</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='communities'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='farm'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='poverty'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mozambique. rural'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='AFRICA FOME MISERIA CRISE ALIMENTAR'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='self-sustaining'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rural'/><title type='text'>About  our GOAL´s</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: #3333ff;"&gt;Life’s that you only know from a single and repeat expression. “1$DLLR A DAY”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But we want to make an effective and self-sustaining approach to poverty reduction and community economic development by adding value with a on-line events, such as for example- the success of an every – day – straggle of rural African communities wich are far from every EUROPEAN DAY to day normal straggling, life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition to it, will had a networking opportunity and other resources available in our SITE we are&amp;nbsp;aiming to support the creation of a vibrant private sectors in MOZAMBIQUE...... our “goals” include increasing the capacity of local community champions to make informed choices, define their priorities and gain access to world´s resources and partners.
