The document contains charts showing changes in home prices from 2000 to 2009 for 14 U.S. states based on a repeat sales model. The charts compare home price indices excluding real estate owned (REO) homes to indices including REO homes. In most states, home price indices declined from their peaks in the mid-2000s before beginning to recover in 2009. The inclusion of REO homes generally resulted in greater declines and slower recovery in home price indices.
This presentation provides an overview of the executive aviation market from Embraer's perspective. It discusses forward-looking statements and acknowledges uncertainty in projections. Charts show projections for global GDP growth remaining steady around 3% annually through 2014. U.S. corporate profits are up significantly from 2009 levels though remain below pre-crisis averages. Global stock markets saw over a 10% drop highlighted in late 2008. Business jet traffic in the U.S. and Europe has rebounded in 2011 after declines in 2009. The used aircraft market inventory decreased in 2010 after large increases in prior years.

This presentation discusses the state of the global and U.S. economy, as well as trends in the business jet industry. It notes that while the global economy is expected to grow around 3% annually through 2014, uncertainty remains. U.S. corporate profits and stock markets rebounded in recent years but volatility persists. Business jet traffic in the U.S. and Europe has increased since 2009 but remains below pre-recession levels. The supply of used business jets for sale has declined since 2008.
Disinflation momentum continues…
Consumer Price Index (CPI, 2005=100) moderated further in Mar ’09 to 3.5% YoY (Maybank IB estimate: 3.7% YoY; Consensus estimate: 3.6% YoY) from 3.7% YoY in Feb 09 and the peak of 8.5% YoY in Jul-Aug ‘08. This marked the seventh consecutive month of disinflation. MoM, inflation rate was down by 0.2%, the sixth sequential drop over the past seven months. Led by “disinflation” in Food and Non Alcoholic Beverages (FNAB) prices and “deflation” in Transport costs... The YoY increase in FNAB prices slowed for the sixth straight month while Transport costs declined for the fourth month in a row. Both account for 47.3% of CPI’s basket of goods and services and ¾ of last month inflation rate. There were no significant movements or notable changes in the price trends of other goods and services. Consequently, our measure of CPI ex-FNAB and Transport was little changed at 2.1% YoY last month compared with 2.2% YoY in the preceding month. Technical deflation is on the card as % YoY monthly inflation rate may turn negative between mid-year up to late-3Q09 or early-4Q09 due to the high-base from last year’s sharp hike in fuel and energy prices, as well as taking cue from the producer price index (PPI) which has turned negative since Nov ‘08. Therefore, maintaining our 2009 and 2010 inflation rate forecasts of 1% and 1.5% respectively, which is a marked deceleration from 5.4% in 2008 amid the environment of global/local economic downturn and lower commodity prices. Year-to-date inflation rate is 3.7%.

Jones Lang LaSalle EMEA Corporate Occupier Conditions Industrial December 2011hoet
This document summarizes industrial occupier market conditions in EMEA in December 2011. It notes that while take-up has been ahead of last year so far, signs of slowing activity are emerging due to renewed economic uncertainty in the Eurozone. Limited development has led to tighter supply, and reduced developer confidence and financing constraints will further limit new speculative developments. Prime rents have increased in many markets but the rate of growth is starting to slow down.

The future of academic library websitesPamela Carson
When designing academic library websites, libraries need to consider user needs, competitors, new technologies, collaboration, strategies, and advocacy. To effectively design websites, libraries should conduct user testing and needs analysis, perform competitive intelligence on other organizations' websites, implement emerging technologies, collaborate across library departments and with stakeholders, link website changes to overall strategies, and advocate for their unique interests with vendors and universities.
The document discusses challenges facing efforts to reduce economic disparities between regions in England. It notes that while the goal is to narrow gaps in growth rates, economic performance has always varied between cities and little progress has been made. Barriers include a lack of consensus around the role of core cities, artificial administrative boundaries, and departments prioritizing different approaches. Resolving tensions between priorities of growth places versus places in need remains difficult politically.

This document discusses a study on the carbon value and risk management options of afforestation on marginal irrigated croplands in Uzbekistan. The study analyzed afforestation of marginal lands as an alternative land use, providing various products and ecosystem services. It examined areas in Khorezm and Southern Karakalpakstan where 20-35% of croplands are marginal due to issues like salinity. The study used farm surveys, market data, and tree growth parameters over 7 years to model the returns and risks of different land use options, and identify the carbon prices needed to incentivize afforestation given production variability. Results found afforestation more profitable than major crops grown on marginal lands, but

This document discusses migration, labor supply, wages and agriculture in rural Odisha, India. It finds that migration has impacted labor supply, real wage rates, productivity, output and cropping patterns in agriculture. Specifically:
- Migration of unskilled labor out of agriculture to other sectors has been a characteristic of economic development globally and in India. This has led to labor shortages and increasing wages in rural Odisha's agriculture sector.
- Studies show migration reduces farm labor participation and shifts cropping patterns to less labor-intensive crops. Higher wages from migration remittances compensate for lost farm output in some areas but reduce labor efforts and productivity in others.
- Minimum wage laws in India intended
The document discusses several issues related to labor in the Malaysian agriculture sector. Employment declined slightly from 2008 to 2010 while the sector became more dependent on foreign labor. There are many problems with agricultural labor, including a lack of quality labor, an aging workforce, low wages, lack of social security, and younger generations' lack of interest in agricultural work. To address these issues, the government could increase social security benefits, provide more training and subsidies to improve labor quality, raise wages, and make agricultural work more attractive to locals and younger people.

It notes that around 58% of India's population depends on agriculture and that the number of cultivators has declined from 50% in 1951 to 24% in 2011. It outlines the classification, characteristics, laws, and welfare measures regarding agricultural laborers. Some key challenges faced by agricultural laborers are excess supply, seasonal employment, small land holdings, limited other occupations, indebtedness, and regional variations in issues. Solutions proposed include cooperatives, irrigation development, improved marketing/distribution, and agricultural insurance.
Trend of inflation from the year 1991 tillBharat Sharma
Inflation in India has been rising since the 1950s but increased drastically after economic liberalization in 1991. Some key points:
1) Inflation hit 13.66% in 1991 due to fiscal deficits, government finance issues, and rupee devaluation.
2) Causes of inflation in the 1990s and 2000s included increasing international oil prices, agricultural issues like drought that raised food prices, and higher government defense spending.
3) Impacts of inflation included liquidity issues, deficit financing challenges, trade imbalances, higher interest rates, and demands for wage increases. Relationships between commodities like crude oil, gold, and the US dollar also influenced inflation trends.

This document discusses the labour market in India. It covers several key points:
1. The Indian labour market consists of three main sectors: rural workers make up over 60% of the workforce, the organized sector employs 8% and produces 40% of GDP, and the growing informal urban sector represents the residual.
2. The labour force size is approximately 430 million workers as of 2004-05, growing at 2% annually. Women's participation is lower at 28% and unemployment is relatively low at 3.1%, but disguised unemployment is high.
3. There is debate around whether India's labour market is rigid or flexible. While some argue for greater flexibility, evidence does not strongly support nominal or real
This document discusses various aspects of inflation including definitions, types, measurement, causes and effects. It explains key inflation concepts like demand-pull and cost-push inflation. It also discusses the stages of inflation and inflation's relationship to GDP and currency valuation. The document provides examples of inflation rates in India and outlines some monetary and fiscal policy measures to control inflation.
The document defines various economic terms related to inflation including inflation, hyperinflation, deflation, and stagflation. It also discusses how inflation is measured using the Consumer Price Index and some of the key causes of inflation such as increases in the money supply, cost pressures, and demand factors. The impacts of inflation on employment, incomes, and the overall economy are also outlined.
Labour shortage is an emerging challenge for Indian agriculture. Several factors are contributing to the declining agricultural workforce, including younger generations moving away from farming, migration to cities for better jobs and wages, and social welfare programs like MGNREGA that provide alternative employment. This is resulting in higher costs of cultivation, increased wages, and potentially lower agricultural production and food security if not addressed through strategic solutions.
Here is a draft essay in response to the question:
Part A
There are several possible causes of inflation. Demand-pull inflation can occur when there is excess demand in the economy, pushing up prices as demand outstrips supply. This may be caused by monetary factors such as an increase in the money supply or low interest rates stimulating spending. Cost-push inflation arises from rising production costs for firms, such as increased wage costs due to higher inflation expectations, or rising import prices. Supply shocks such as an oil price rise can also push up costs. Keynes argued that government spending could cause demand-pull inflation by directly injecting money into the economy. Monetarists argue that in the long-run, inflation is always
Wage and salary administration aims to establish a scientific pay structure to avoid conflicts between employers and employees regarding fair compensation. It should consider economic, psychological, legal and growth factors. In India, wages are not fixed systematically due to poverty, unemployment and population issues. Time-rate and piece-rate wages each have benefits and drawbacks for workers and employers. Developing an effective pay system involves job analysis, evaluation, surveys, establishing pay grades and structures, and monitoring for adjustments.
The document discusses the relationship between inflation and unemployment as depicted by the Phillips curve. It explains that demand-pull inflation is caused by increases in aggregate demand, while cost-push inflation stems from increases in costs of production. The Phillips curve shows an inverse relationship between inflation and unemployment in the short run, but this relationship breaks down in the long run as inflation expectations rise. The natural rate of unemployment is the rate at which inflation remains stable in the long run.
In this presentation, we will discuss definition and concept of Wages and Salary Administration in an organization. Objectives of determining wages and factors that affect the salary of employees is also discussed here in this presentation.

This document discusses different types of unemployment including frictional, seasonal, cyclical, structural, and disguised unemployment. It also discusses underemployment and defines unemployment rate, labor force participation rate, and discouraged workers. Additionally, it covers the relationship between unemployment and inflation including the short-run and long-run Phillips curves. Expected inflation rate is identified as a key factor that can shift the short-run Phillips curve. The natural rate hypothesis and need for disinflation policies if unemployment is kept below the natural rate for too long are also summarized.
Job evaluation provides a systematic basis for determining the relative worth of jobs within an organization based on factors like the importance of the job, skills and qualifications needed, and difficulty level. There are analytical and non-analytical methods for evaluation, such as ranking, classification, and point methods. Wages refer to payments for blue-collar work, salaries to white-collar work, and compensation includes wages and benefits. Minimum wages provide for basic sustenance while living wages provide for needs and insurance. Various laws regulate wages and benefits in India.
The document discusses various aspects of wage and salary administration. It outlines objectives like recruiting employees and controlling payroll costs. It discusses principles like external equity, job evaluation, and maintaining competitiveness. Factors that determine wage structures include cost of living, productivity, and prevailing wages. Different types of wages like minimum, fair, and living wages are defined. Advantages and disadvantages of time wages and piece wages are provided. Guidelines for effective incentive plans emphasize linking pay to performance and clear communication. Key labor laws governing wages in India like the Minimum Wages Act, Payment of Wages Act, and Payment of Bonus Act are also summarized.
The Payment of Wages Act, 1936 regulates the payment of wages to certain classes of employed persons in India. It aims to ensure that wages are paid in a timely manner and deductions are only made as permitted under the law. The key aspects covered are:
1) It applies to persons employed in factories, transport services, mines and plantations.
2) Wages must be paid in current coins, currency notes or by cheque/bank credit within 7-10 days of the following month.
3) Only certain permitted deductions can be made for things like taxes, loans, damages or absence from work.
4) Authorities like Labour Commissioners are empowered to hear claims regarding unpaid wages or wrong
This document discusses wages and salary administration. It covers developing a pay system through job evaluation and market surveys, establishing pay structures, and administering individual pay adjustments while monitoring the system. It also discusses factors affecting compensation levels and the purpose of wages. Principles of compensation administration and different types of compensation like direct, indirect, and total compensation are defined.
The document discusses labour market shortages that can occur even during times of unemployment. It provides statistics showing unemployment and job vacancy rates in several European countries. While counterintuitive, shortages can exist alongside unemployment due to lags in the business cycle and imbalances between specific skills/locations. Reasons for shortages include quantitative shortfalls, qualitative skill mismatches, and unattractive job conditions. Recent trends like technological change, globalization, and demographics may be exacerbating shortages. Potential policy solutions involve actions across education, employers, and governments to better align skills with needs and increase overall employment.

GDP is the total value of goods and services produced in a country over a period of time. The document discusses GDP reporting, components, and measurement in the US. It provides data on US GDP from 1995-2010, showing steady growth except for declines in 1998 and 2008-2009. Sectors like consumption, government spending, investment, and net exports influence GDP. The income and expenditure approaches are used to calculate GDP.
The document summarizes the economic outlook for the El Paso-Juarez border region. It finds that the El Paso economy is recovering faster than other border cities, with employment increasing 3.8% from its lowest point. Unemployment in El Paso has matched the national rate as the US recovery gains momentum, with manufacturing and non-manufacturing activity expanding. The Mexican economy is also recovering, with GDP growth of 5.5% last year. Trade between the US and Mexico continues to increase, especially in the automotive industry where Mexico's production and exports are at record highs.

- The housing market has improved significantly since 2011 due to high affordability, job growth, and low interest rates. Existing home sales are projected to increase in 2012 and 2013.
- Housing inventory remains tight, supporting further home price increases. However, foreclosures could increase in judicial states with slow housing processes.
- Multifamily construction has increased while single-family starts are still recovering from the housing bust. Overall construction is expected to rise to meet demand.
Israel has transitioned to a highly developed, technology-focused economy. It has rapidly developed technology and hi-tech industries, relying on a skilled workforce and entrepreneurial culture. Exports, especially of high-tech goods and services, have driven strong economic growth. Israel spends more on research and development as a percentage of GDP than any other OECD nation. Despite its small size, Israel consistently ranks highly on global competitiveness and innovation indices.
The Saturday Economist : UK recoveries compared 1930 2012 John Ashcroft
The document compares the UK recessions and recoveries of 1930, 1980, 1990 to the current recession from 2008. It finds that the 2008 recession was steeper than previous recessions. The recovery was in line with previous recessions until 2011, but has since faltered, with the economy now flatlining and output still below pre-recession levels. In contrast to previous strong recoveries, the current recovery lacks stimulus, with constrained government spending, household spending, and weak investment awaiting growth in domestic demand.
1) Structural reforms in Egypt from 2001-2008 led to slow redistribution of employment towards sectors like manufacturing, transportation, communication, wholesale/retail trade, and extraction.
2) These structural changes were associated with increasing productivity in the same economic activities.
3) The private sector was the primary source of both employment growth and productivity increases over this period.
The document analyzes determinants of cattle prices in Ethiopia using a hedonic price formation model. Key findings include: 1) Prices are heavily influenced by cattle characteristics like body mass, age, gender, and breed; 2) Prices vary by region, season, and religious holidays; 3) Non-food inflation explains lowland price increases but not highland increases, where international beef prices explain 10% of the rise. However, much of the overall price increase remains unexplained.
London's population growth is projected to be large over the coming years. This presentations outlines some of the latest statistics and discusses implications particularly for housing.
The document summarizes trends in the UK manufacturing sector from 2000-2012. It describes how manufacturing output fell sharply during the recession in 2008-2009 due to declining domestic and foreign demand. Export orders recovered in 2010 as sterling depreciated, and manufacturers replenished inventories. While output grew strongly in the recovery, rising costs led to inflation. Sentiment deteriorated in late 2011 due to concerns about political and economic conditions abroad. The outlook is that manufacturing output will continue rising modestly, supported by export orders, but long-term challenges remain around higher commodity prices.
The Malaysian property market saw modest growth in Q2 2011. Office rents increased slightly while retail sales growth was revised downwards due to rising inflation. The residential sector saw new completions but demand remained focused on affordable housing. The investment market remained active, driven by REIT deals focusing on retail and commercial properties.
The presentation provided an overview of the executive aviation market and discussed forward-looking projections. It summarized key economic indicators like world GDP growth rates, U.S. corporate profits, and stock market returns. Charts showed growth in business jet traffic in the United States and Europe in 2010. Data on the used aircraft market indicated a net decrease in aircraft available for sale so far in 2010 compared to inventory increases in prior years.
The document presents conflicting economic data from various sources on the state of the US economy. It shows data that indicates rising GDP, jobs, manufacturing and retail sales alongside data pointing to high unemployment, falling housing starts and declining economic indexes. The intent is to show that different economic indicators can suggest contradictory things, similar to blind men describing different parts of an elephant. It urges readers to consider long term trends rather than single monthly data points when evaluating the economy.

This document discusses constrained multiplier analysis by relaxing the assumption of unlimited factor resources. It introduces the concept of constraining some sectors' production levels to model resource constraints in agriculture, mining, and government services. The constrained multiplier formula is derived, distinguishing between supply-unconstrained and constrained sectors. A matrix format is used to represent the formula, with the constrained multiplier calculated as the inverse of the identity matrix minus an adjusted coefficient matrix, multiplied by the exogenous components matrix. Readers are directed to a worksheet exercise to calculate constrained multipliers using the mathematical equations and Excel functions.
This document provides an introduction to multiplier analysis using social accounting matrices (SAM). It outlines how economic linkages transmit the effects of exogenous demand shocks through an economy. The direct and indirect effects are explained, with indirect effects including consumption and production linkages. An unconstrained SAM multiplier model is presented, with formulas derived to calculate economy-wide output, income, and sectoral responses to exogenous changes in demand. Exercises are provided to build a multiplier model in Excel and calculate multipliers.
The document provides an introduction to social accounting matrices (SAM) and economywide analysis. It discusses key concepts such as:
- SAMs capture the circular flow of income and expenditures between households, firms, government, and the rest of the world.
- Economywide analysis considers how changes in one sector can impact other sectors through economic linkages.
- A SAM shows payments by columns and receipts by rows to ensure double-entry bookkeeping and macroeconomic consistency.
- Building a SAM requires data from various sources like national accounts and household surveys, which are reconciled using statistical techniques.

This document discusses sustainable food systems. It defines a food system as encompassing all actors and activities involved in food production, processing, distribution, consumption and disposal. A sustainable food system is one that provides food security and nutrition for current and future generations without compromising economic, social or environmental sustainability. It must be economically viable, socially equitable, and have neutral or positive environmental impacts. The food system is driven by biophysical, demographic, technological, political, economic and socio-cultural factors.
The document summarizes Ethiopia's Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP), a large social protection program that aims to smooth food consumption and protect assets for chronically food insecure communities. Key points:
- The PSNP provides direct transfers and public works projects to build community assets like roads and irrigation. It supports up to 8 million beneficiaries with a budget of $0.5 billion annually.
- Independent evaluations show the PSNP improved household food security and dietary diversity but had little impact on child nutrition outcomes. It did not reduce labor supply or crowd out private transfers.
- While the PSNP enhanced resilience, graduation remains a challenge. Targeting in lowland areas also proved difficult. Ensuring timely payments
Some Welfare Consequences of COVID-19 in Ethiopiaessp2
1) The study examines the impacts of COVID-19 on food marketing margins in Ethiopia using phone surveys of farmers, wholesalers, and retailers conducted in February 2020 and May 2020.
2) The surveys found that over 50% of farmers reported receiving less income in May compared to usual times, though most planned to continue vegetable production. Wholesalers reported decreased transport options and client numbers but stable or lower costs, while most retailers saw lower client numbers but stable or lower costs and losses.
3) Retail prices for the main vegetables remained quite stable between February and May, suggesting marketing margins absorbed most impacts of COVID-19 disruptions on vegetable supply chains in Ethiopia during the
Improving evidence for better policy making in Ethiopia’s livestock sector essp2
1. The document discusses Ethiopia's evolving livestock sector and improving evidence for better policy making.
2. While livestock contributed little to GDP growth, there is considerable potential for growth given Ethiopia's large livestock populations and rising demand for animal-sourced foods.
3. Factors like education, household size, extension services, and herd size are positively associated with adoption of improved practices and inputs like vaccination and cross-breeding.
The COVID-19 Pandemic and Food Security in Ethiopia – An Interim Analysisessp2
This document summarizes the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on food security in Ethiopia. It finds that the pandemic is likely to have large short-term negative economic effects through impacts on exports, imports, remittances and domestic lockdown measures. This will reduce GDP, household incomes, employment and agricultural market functioning. Many households are already experiencing income losses, higher food prices and shifts away from nutritious foods. Recommendations include continuing the government's response, addressing misinformation, expanding social safety nets and implementing selective lockdowns.

The document summarizes the effects of COVID-19 on agricultural value chains in Ethiopia. It discusses how measures taken to prevent spread of the virus, such as closing land borders and restricting movement between regional states, have reduced economic activity. It then outlines an assessment of local rural-urban value chains to understand how the pandemic is impacting farmers' incomes, market access, and food security. The assessment will focus on commodities like potatoes, onions, and tomatoes that rely on transportation between rural and urban areas. Recommendations will be made on how to minimize disruptions to the agricultural sector during this crisis.

AFFORDABILITY OF Nutritious foods IN ETHIOPIAessp2
This document summarizes research on the affordability of nutritious diets in Ethiopia. It finds that between 2001 and 2017, the cost of the least expensive diet providing adequate calories and nutrients for an adult woman increased 67% from $0.91 to $1.52. While real prices of some staple foods have decreased in recent years, prices of nutrient-rich foods like dairy, eggs, and meat have increased substantially. However, overall affordability has improved due to rising incomes. Still, ensuring adequate supply of nutritious foods is important to keep their prices low.
The EAT Lancet Publication: Implications for Nutrition Health and Planetessp2
The document discusses a publication by the EAT-Lancet Commission that aimed to define global scientific targets for healthy diets from sustainable food systems. It established a reference diet of 2500 calories per day consisting of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, plant proteins, unsaturated fats, and limited red meat and sugar. Current diets vary widely from this target. The commission also set planetary boundaries related to greenhouse gas emissions, land and water use, and nutrient flows to define a safe operating space for food production. Global modeling was used to identify combinations of measures needed to meet dietary targets sustainably by 2050, such as shifting diets, reducing food waste, and improving agricultural practices.
Sustainable Undernutrition Reduction in Ethiopia (SURE): Evaluation studies essp2
The SURE program is a government-led multisectoral intervention in Ethiopia that aims to reduce undernutrition through a package of interventions like joint household visits, cooking demonstrations, and media campaigns. Evaluation studies of SURE used a quasi-experimental design and found that children's dietary diversity is positively associated with reduced stunting, and that household production of fruits and vegetables was linked to increased child dietary diversity and reduced stunting. However, the studies also found variability in the delivery of nutrition messages across households and limited awareness of nutrition guidelines among local officials.
Policies and Programs on food and Nutrition in Ethiopiaessp2
This document outlines policies and programs on food and nutrition in Ethiopia. It discusses nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions, and the pathways through which nutrition-sensitive interventions can affect diet and food systems. It then provides an overview of Ethiopia's policy landscape on food and nutrition, outlining various strategies and policies that aim to improve nutrition, including the Food, Nutrition and Policy, Agriculture Growth Program Phase II, Productive Safety Net Program, and National Nutrition Program. The document concludes that Ethiopia has a favorable policy environment for improving diets and nutrition, but effective implementation, coordination, evidence-based scaling up of interventions, and strong monitoring and evaluation are still needed.
1) Access to nutritious foods is challenging for many households in Ethiopia, especially low-income households, due to high costs and an inability to afford animal-source proteins, zinc, iron, and other micronutrients that are critical for young children's development.
2) A study found that households in Ethiopia spend around 25,000 birr per year on food, with 14,535 birr from purchases and 11,000 birr from own production, but still struggle to meet half of nutritional requirements for children under two.
3) Factors like religious fasting practices and lack of separate feeding plates for children can negatively impact children's diet diversity in Ethiopia. Increased investment in small and
Kaleab Baye presented on diets and stunting in Ethiopia. Stunting rates have declined overall but inequalities persist, with the lowest wealth quintile having the highest rates. Complementary foods in Ethiopia are often low in quantity, diversity, and quality. Improving maternal and child nutrition requires interventions across food systems to increase availability, accessibility, and affordability of nutrient-dense foods as well as improving caregiver feeding practices and maternal health. Comprehensive measures are needed to assess diet quality and reduce consumption of unhealthy foods and risks to food safety.
This document discusses the linkages between irrigation and nutrition in Ethiopia. It notes that Ethiopia's Food and Nutrition Policy and Nutrition Sensitive Agricultural Strategy recognize the role of irrigation in improving nutritional outcomes. There are several pathways through which irrigation can impact nutrition, such as increasing food production, household income, access to water, and women's empowerment. Studies show that children and women in irrigating households in Ethiopia have better dietary diversity and nutrient intake, as well as reduced stunting and wasting, compared to non-irrigating households. Therefore, promoting irrigation can help improve nutrition in addition to increasing income and agricultural yields.

2. Background
• The global food crises of 2007-08 and 2010-11
sparked a number of efforts to understand the
poverty impacts of higher real food prices
• On the one hand World Bank simulation approaches
suggested global poverty rose by 160 million people
• However, subjective survey data from Gallup suggest
substantial variation of impacts, and that strong
economic growth in developing countries limited the
impacts of higher prices (Headey 2011)
• A third less common approach is to deflate wages by
(food) prices as a proxy for disposable income
3. Background
• Some precedent on agricultural wages & food prices
• Literature is almost solely confined to Bangladesh
(Ravallion; Palmer-Jones; Rashid), and Philippines (Lasco et al.).
• Bangladesh: limited short run impacts of prices on
wages; Philippines: fairly large short run impacts
• More recent study by Mason et al. (2010) looks at
urban manufacturing wages in Zambia and Kenya.
No econometrics, but “food-disposable” wages fell in
2008, but were still high by historical terms because
of strong economic growth.
4. Background
In this paper we have two objectives:
1. To track real wages in (as per Mason et al.)
2. To formally test wage adjustment (as per Lasco et al., etc)
Our context – Ethiopia - is a particularly interesting one:
1. Very poor (60% of urban pop. with <$2/day; 20% uN rate)
2. Very understudied in World Bank & Gallup studies
3. Unusually, we have monthly panel data on informal
or casual wages (much better than previous data)
4. Arguably the most rapid food inflation in the world
in 2008 and 2011

6. 2. Data and methods
• CSA consumer price data from 115 “urban” markets
around the country, from July 2001 to October 2011
• In addition to prices on food & non-food items, CSA
asks about daily laborer wages, maids wages, guards
• But since maids and guards are partly paid with food-
in-kind, we only focus on laborers (trends the same)
• Prices and wages collected for 3 respondents (firms
or households) in each market and then averaged
• Enumerators try to measure the same respondents
(kind of a panel?)
7. 2. Data and methods
• To create a better wage welfare proxy, we create food
and non-food price indices specifically for the poor
• We used the 2004/05 HICES expenditure data, and
measure expenditure shares just for the bottom 40%
• We do this for rural and urban areas of each region,
then apply these weights to the CSA price data to
derive a set of spatially disaggregated “poor person’s
price indices” (PPPIs) for food, non-food and all items
• We deflate laborer’s wages by both food prices and
total prices for the poor.
8. 2. Data and methods
• In principle, deflating by total prices is most
appropriate for welfare interpretation, but deflating
food prices may be more relevant for ultra-poor who
may spend almost all of their income on food
• More generally, are daily laborer’s wages are a good
welfare indicator for the poor?
• For India, Deaton and Dreze argue that wage series
for casual labor are a good poverty indicator, because
they represent the reservation wage for the poor
• For urban Ethiopia we make the same argument
9. 2. Data and methods
• Finally, we use panel regressors to see whether wages
react to food prices in the short run
• We use a panel vector error correction model (PVEC)
& spatially disaggregate by town/city size & regions
• PVEC effectively separates out a long run adjustment
relationship (cointegrating relationships) and short
run adjustments.
• We are more interested in the short run adjustments
as they are more welfare-relevant. “In the long run we
are all dead”

15. • The long run relationship shows substantial
adjustment of wages to food prices (elasticity of
greater than 1), but not to non-food prices:
• Wages = -2.9 +1.2*Food CPI -0.1* Nonfood CPI -0.001* t
However, it is obviously difficult to put a welfare
interpretation on this equation
• Especially since the short run results show scarcely
any adjustment . . .
17. 4. Conclusions
Main findings:
• Casual workers in urban Ethiopia have been hit hard by
rapid food inflation in 2008 & 2011, particularly ultra-
poor:
10-26% loss of disposable income year, region, indicator
• 2011 crisis (ongoing) seems worse than 2008 crisis
• Given that households could have many coping
mechanisms (e.g. longer working hours), these may be
upperbound estimates of welfare impacts
18. 4. Conclusions
Policy questions:
• Govt. has focused on trying to directly curb food
inflation through price controls & subsidization
• Efforts to reduce domestic inflation are sensible, but
the capacity to fully reduce inflation may be limited
given higher international prices and ambitious
domestic growth scenarios in the GTP
• So does Ethiopia need an urban social safety net?
• Many considerations here, but one option is to index
cash transfers to our poor person’s price index
19. 4. Conclusions
Research implications
• Further work could try to validate the wage series as
a relevant and accurate welfare indicator for poor
• CSA could consider asking about food-in-kind for
maids salaries, guards salaries
• Arguably the collection of wage series by statistical
agencies elsewhere should be scaled up
• They appear to be a cost-effective and very useful
high frequency indicator of urban welfare, and in
some contexts, agricultural welfare (e.g. South Asia)
Editor's Notes
Can’t promise I am going to rock your world, but I hope to promote some debate and some further research or feasibility analysis into whether these proposals are really viable.
First panel: Excludingzimbabwe, Ethiopia had the highest food inflation in the world in 2008. Second paenl – this is the change in food CPI/nonfood CPI.
Deaton and Dreze (2002) argue that for India and South Asia agricultural wages are also a good poverty indicator for the rural poor because in South Asia agricultural labor is the reservation occupation for the poor
