- Davis, Junior (2006): How can the poor benefit from the growing markets for high value agricultural products?
This paper aims to identify critical areas for trade, marketing, capital market development and regulatory reforms that can facilitate the integration of small-scale farmers (small-scale farmers) in domestic, regional and global markets for high-value agricultural (HVA) products in particular high value crops, livestock, fish and non timber forest products in a sustainable manner and to increase and diversify the incomes of small-scale farmers in the long-run.
RePEc:pra:mprapa:26048 Save to MyIDEAS - Vijay Paul Sharma & Dinesh Jain (2011): High-Value Agriculture in India: Past Trends and Future Prospects
Given the declining share of traditional agricultural commodities in production, consumption and trade, horticulture and other non-traditional high-value agriculture represent an important area of potential income growth in rural areas. The high-value agriculture-led-growth strategy also provides significant scope for achieving greater commercialization of smallholder agriculture. Despite the potential, the contribution of high-value agricultural exports is still small but increasing. This paper examines the past and existing performance and identifies likely challenges and opportunities for high-value-agriculture in the country.

This paper reports on an ex-post assessment of IFPRI’s research on High-Value Agriculture (HVA) over 1994–2010. HVA is defined to include perishable agricultural commodities produced for the market that yield high returns to land, labor, or both. IFPRI’s research on HVA has been housed mainly in GRP27 (Participation in high value agricultural markets).

RePEc:fpr:impass:39 Save to MyIDEAS - Keijiro Otsuka & Tomoko Hashino & Keijiro Otsuka (2016): Development of High-Value Agricultural Districts: The Role of Producer Cooperatives in Japan and Developing Countries
Like manufactured products, quality variations are large in high-value agricultural products (HVPs) such as vegetables, fruits, and livestock products. ... Like manufacturing industrial districts, innovation holds the key to the development of agricultural districts. ... This chapter attempts to demonstrate not only similarities in development patterns between industrial and agricultural districts but also in the role played by producer cooperatives. With a view to drawing lessons from historical experience for the development of agricultural districts in developing countries, this chapter reviews the development experience of apple-producing district in prewar Japan and compares it with the contemporary development of a large number of agricultural districts in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.

RePEc:iim:iimawp:10671 Save to MyIDEAS - Christopher CRAMER & Jonathan DI JOHN & John SENDER (2018): Poinsettia Assembly and Selling Emotion: High Value Agricultural Exports in Ethiopia
We examine how investment in high-value agriculture can help to address the balance of payments constraint on growth and the wage employment challenge in Ethiopia while accelerating structural change. ... This process has often been (mis)understood as a rural to urban shift, or as only a departure from agriculture and into those sectors classified as manufacturing or industrial. ... Structural change is taking place within agriculture and rural areas rather than away from them, but the implications for ‘industrial’ strategies are rarely discussed. ... The horticulture export sector has created far greater demands and pressures for the development of up-to-date transport and logistics in Ethiopia than, for example, the textile and leather sectors.We then identify, within the context of the Upper Awash Valley in Ethiopia, some of the apparently technical but, above all, socio- political constraints limiting the potential for high value agriculture to contribute to growth and structural change.Our method and findings are very different from the literature on ‘complexity’ and ‘product space’ and they query pessimistic conclusions about ‘premature deindustrialization’. And our findings suggest the need to rethink how industrial strategies can promote structural change: much more support should be directed to high value agricultural production and less focus on assembling garments or trainers in subsidized industrial parks.
RePEc:avg:wpaper:en8866 Save to MyIDEAS - Birthal, Pratap Singh & Jha, Awadhesh K. & Singh, Harvinder (2007): Linking Farmers to Markets for High-Value Agricultural Commodities
Growing demand for high-value food commodities is opening up opportunities for farmers, especially smallholders to diversify towards commodities that have strong potential for higher returns to land, labour and capital. ... Evidence has shown that smallholders do participate and make a sizeable contribution to the production of high-value food commodities, but their links to markets are not strong.
