  • Abstract
    Informational imperfections and uncertainty have been in the focus of recent literature as they are the source of much of the difference between first- and second-best scenarios. This is an application of these concepts to agricultural development as risks ranging from price fluctuations to environmental conditions and inequalities of access to information manifest itself at both the micro and the macro level constraining the possibilities of agricultural development.
