It is due to the intervention of government into the marketplace, and the government’s manipulation of the resources for political gain. The objective of the government is to move the economy away from agriculture and towards industry in order to achieve a modern country. In doing so they adopt political policies which further detriments the peasants in order to appease their upper class.
Agricultural policy consists of government actions that affect the incomes of rural producers by influencing the prices they pay in major markets, and thereby determining their incomes. Farmers are faced with three markets. The market for agricultural commodities, where they receive revenue from sales; the production market, where their costs are incurred; and the market for consumer goods, where their income is determined by the real value of their profits. It is in these markets where the government policies are intervened and manipulated to achieve their goals. That is the goal of becoming a modern industrial country. One way that this is done is through the concept of the sole buyer. In Africa, it is policy that a governmental entity be the sole buyer of agricultural products. Due to the fact that this is a rural third world country, a market is produced in which there are several suppliers, but only one sole buyer, which is a government entity. It is in this way that the government may determine the prices because when there are several suppliers and only one buyer it is a prime situation in which the buyer is able to set the price, therefore determining the seller’s income. It is in this way that the African government chooses to control the incomes of the rural farmers. Rather than boosting the economy by offering incentives to keep the farmers producing , they choose to control the economy by controlling the prices the farmers incur thereby actually decreasing the productivity of the farmers, and indirectly decreasing the welfare of the economy.
In Africa the use of project based policies rather than price based policies further damages the already waning economy. Price based policy is a more efficient and effective method of boosting economy, yet project based policy is still adapted leading to further damage to an already distraught economy. The government will begin numerous political projects designed to increase the economy. However due to the limited resources available in Africa, the starting of so many concurrent projects results in a stretching of the already scarce resources resulting in the resources being spread to thinly throughout all of the projects, and therefore the projects fail rather than succeed. It is this result which defeats the very purpose of which the projects were first began. Not only do the projects fail, they also use the little resources that are available and instead of boosting
The Government of Kenya created the Government of Kenya in the 18th century to improve the quality of life for the poor in Africa.
This country was founded in 1893, a move that made the colonial rule of Kenya that much more oppressive. This change was followed by a massive social reform of the nation with a massive increase in education, trade, and economic growth in the 21st century.
Education, Trade and Development, as well as public and private sector sector were also important part of this initiative.
However, once the reform of the country started a crisis developed as the government became reliant on the military and a lack of public funds and the country’s social institutions were forced to come to an end.
In order to achieve this the government appointed the president, and made an order for the public service to be created by August 1st. This order was given by the first president and he led the citizens to build the government, to make it more efficient and to start implementing various economic policies. These include more food, housing, and education, but also a reduction in the military and increased infrastructure. In addition the nation went from a poor people’s republic to a poor people’s economic republic. As such the people were left with much hardship, an end to slavery and corruption, and increased financial security to them. The country was given the nickname “Kwanza”, and later, “Waka” and its nickname is used today as ‘kwanza’s’.
Despite the large population of the nation today, there was no significant economic growth during this period.
There were also huge social and cultural problems. Despite being an economy that was already in shambles, the people of the country saw themselves as poor in comparison to other large nations. The government had to impose a series of socialistic reforms during the 17th century and the 1790s that were more in line with the ideals of this country, but this also brought in new difficulties, economic growth, and social reform.
At the beginning of this decade, the country was experiencing a huge crisis and the country’s population had become more desperate and desperate, and so there was a major shift in the government. The people had abandoned all social problems before the start of the 20th century and had instead embraced the idea of better schooling and training, but in the 15th century this was to be reduced by increasing trade and increased taxes as well as by raising land value.The government began raising the debt ceiling as a means of increasing revenues.
In October 1891 a law went into effect to require that at least $10 billion of loans be made of the government’s debt.
The President, in signing the law, was to make a donation to the Salvation Army.[40] The number of children who were not enrolled in the Church school system was then reduced to a percentage of the national average to maintain the level of literacy the country had suffered during the 19th century. This created a situation where there was almost no opportunity to educate the rest of the nation. The government gave money to the Catholic Relief Society of the Philippines on October 14, 1892.[41] By the following year the Church Church became the largest and most widely distributed NGO.[42] According to records, there were more than 120,000 employees for the government in the next six years.[43] The government raised the debts to $15 billion and by September that year, a new law giving the government more authority over the money was enacted.[44] The government increased military spending to $25 billion and by January of 1895
