3 Trillion USD Agricultural Development Economics Division Capital Stock (FAO) inventories-based estimates On-farm agricultural capital stock has increased over time... Figure 1: Agricultural capital stock, constant 2005 dollars Low and middle-income countries High income countries Source: Authors calculations using FAO, 2011.
4 Capital Stock (FAO) inventories-based estimates Figure 2: Rates of growth in agricultural capital stock, 1980s Source: Authors calculations using FAO, But growth has slowed since the 1980s both globally and in the lowand middle-income countries. In high income countries the rate of change has become negative (probably due to underreporting and other data issues).
5 Capital Stock (FAO) inventories-based estimates The trend has varied among the low and middle income country regional groupings Figure 3: Rates of growth in agricultural capital stock, 1980s Source: Authors calculations using FAO, 2011.
6 Capital Stock (FAO) inventories-based estimates Table 1: Level and growth of agricultural capital stock *ECA annual rate of growth for Region Average ACS per person employed in agriculture, (USD 2005 constant) Compounded annual rate of growth (based on USD 2005 constant), Agricultural capital stock Population active in agriculture ACS per person active in agriculture World 4, High-income countries 63, Low & middle-income countries 2, East Asia and the Pacific 1, Of which: China EAP excluding China 2, Europe and Central Asia* 18, Latin America & Caribbean 15, Middle East and North Africa 9, South Asia 1, Of which: India South Asia excluding India 4, Sub-Saharan Africa 2, Source: Authors calculations using FAO, ACS per ag worker has decreased in the low- and middleincome regions since 1980 This is due to decreases in Sub- Saharan Africa and parts of South Asia, regions which already suffer from low capital-labour ratios.
7 Capital Stock (FAO) inventories-based estimates ACS per worker was lowest in EAP, followed by South Asia and Sub- Saharan Africa; it has not increased in those regions. It is by far the largest in ECA and LAC, with MENA also showing large per capita levels of ACS; it is in these regions that it has increased.

Low and middle income regions spend less than high income countries in absolute terms. The difference is even more pronounced when we consider per capita terms or as a share of agricultural GDP.

13 Government Expenditures on Agriculture (cont d) The agricultural share of public expenditure has decreased; this decrease often coincides with the decline of the sector in the economy.

14 Official Development Assistance to Agriculture Levels of ODA commitments to agriculture were largest during the 1980s. They decreased in the 1990s, increased sharply in recent years (through 2009), but remain lower than in 1980s. ODA per ag worker, the ag share of ODA and AOI for ODA all show similar trends at the global level. Figure 8: Levels of ODA to agriculture, by region, Source: Authors calculations using OECD, CRS.
15 Foreign Direct Investment (UNCTAD) Figure 9: FDI inflows to the food, beverage and tobacco sector as well as to Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting, 1980 to 2008 (billion USD current prices) Foreign direct investments in agriculture have increased rapidly in the most recent years, but remain of marginal importance as a contributor to total agricultural investments. Furthermore, our analysis suggests that the increase may be less than previously reported. Source: Authors calculations using UNCTAD, 2011.
16 Relative size of investments Most investment in agriculture is financed from private, domestic resources. ODA and probably FDI are the smallest sources of investment, with government investment being much larger and private investment being by far the largest. Figure 10: Relative size of private, governmental, ODA and foreign direct investments in agriculture in 54 low and middle income countries (billions constant 2005 dollars), Private Gov't ODA FDI?* Note: * For this country grouping we can not estimate FDI, but judging from available data for other countries it would likely be very small.

18 Your advice Do the following messages make sense? Are they helpful for FAO work? In low and middle income countries as a whole domestic private investment is larger than government investment in agriculture, ODA invested is very small in comparison and FDI is likely to be the smallest source of investment There is inter-regional variation: Government investment is far smaller than private investment in the 11 SSA countries; ODA is nearly at the level of government investment However this is not the case for EAP where government investment is almost as large as private investment In the HI countries (12) we see that government investment is larger than private investment
19 Thank you!
