Impacts of official development assistance on agricultural growth, savings and agricultural imports
研究了1974-1990年间56个发展中国家的援助与农业产出增长、进口的关系，发现援助促进了农业增长，并加强了与工业化国家的贸易联系。
This paper explores the links between development assistance, agricultural output growth and imports in 56 developing economies over the period 1974-1990. The empirical model treats agricultural growth and imports, savings and aid as endogenous. The analysis also accounts for differences in macroeconomic policies. The results show that aid had a positive impact on agricultural growth. A robust relationship exits between aid and agricultural imports consistent with the argument that aid helps industrialized countries through market expansion and strengthened trade ties.
