Public Finance and the Responsible Factors Coupled With Public Expenditure: Ghana as the Focus

Journal of Economics and Sustainable Development (2015)

Aphu Elvis Selase Adator Stephanie Worlanyo Sophia Abra Enyonam Ekor Joyce Lardi Namong

The phrase public expenditure deals with the subject of government activities and their financing. For instance, capital and recurrent expenditures. The expenditure incurred by public authorities like central, state and local governments to satisfy the collective social wants of the people is what the phrase public expenditure connotes. Public spending is planned to benefit categories of individuals and enterprises irrespective of location, or where locations are prioritized using national criteria. Throughout the 19 th Century, most governments followed laissez faire economic policies and their functions were only restricted to defending aggression and maintaining law and order. The size of public expenditure was very scanty. But now the expenditure of governments all over has significantly increased. In developing countries like Ghana, public expenditure policy not only accelerates economic growth and promotes employment opportunities but also plays a useful role in reducing poverty and inequalities in income distribution. Besides, in the developing parts of the world, there are poor budgeting systems and lack of transparency and accountability always climb the platform of the frowning moments hence underdevelopment. Keywords : Public Finance, Responsible Factors, Public Expenditure, Ghana, Focus.

Climate Variability: Cocoa Farmers Perception and Coping Strategies, Suaman District of Ghana as the Focal Point

Environment Pollution and Climate Change (2017)

Aphu Elvis Selase Xinhai Lu Adator Stephanie Worlanyo

The study employed a treatment effect model in estimating factors that influence perception and coping strategies to climate variability. A simple random technique in selecting six (6) communities and respondents (cocoa farmers) from these communities was used since the study area is homogeneously a cocoa growing arena. A total of one hundred and twenty (120) respondents were interviewed with twenty (20) cocoa farmers randomly selected from each community for the study. From the result, 48.33% of respondents perceived climate variability correctly (thus rainfall is decreasing while temperature is increasing) whiles 51.67% perceived otherwise. The factors that significantly influenced farmer’s perception were FBO membership, household size, residence, educational level of household members and farm management training. The assessment of farmers’ perception on temperature and rainfall pattern and to unravel farmers’ perception on climate variability are fallouts of the objectives of the study. The significant adjustment techniques embraced by the agriculturists were pesticides application, planting enhanced assortments, blended planting and changing planting dates. Agriculturists’ observation was found to positively affect their adjustment. The study concluded that farmers in the study area are involved in specialization of the adaptation strategies to mitigate the adverse impacts of climate variability.

Land Tenure System in the Pre-Colonial Era. Ghana as the Insight.

International Journal of African and Asian Studies (2015)

Aphu Elvis Selase Li Feng Jiang Adator Stephanie Worlanyo

By land tenure system, we simply mean how right to land is obtained and distributed in a particular society. During the pre-colonial era, the population of Ghana was small and land was in abundance. Hunters were the major link in founding new settlements. This was the results of the hamlets they pitched during their hunting expeditions, which later developed big, bigger and into biggest settlements now. Schnapps and cola nuts which were the commonest items used in just acquiring land yesteryears have vehemently derailed to join the path of remittance. Today, the acquisition of land is very difficult and those in possession are making millions of cedis from it by selling to those who could afford buying. Keywords : Land Tenure System, Pre-colonial, Acquisition, Ghana.

Effects of Opportunity International Savings and Loans Credit Facility on Maize Production and Health: Evidence of Techiman Municipality in Ghana

Journal of Agricultural Science and Food Research (2017)

Aphu Elvis Selase Xinhai Lu Adator Stephanie Worlanyo

Currently, Ghana’s agriculture is dominated by subsistence (smallholder production units) with weak linkages to industry and the service centre. The agricultural sector is characterized by low productivity, low income and uncompetitive production, processing and distribution. Given the structure of the Ghanaian economy, higher growth in the agricultural sector is needed to fuel growth in other sectors. The size of the sector indicates that, agriculture could be the engine for a more rapid growth and poverty reduction. This assertion could hold if the right policies are formulated and implemented with the right institutional frameworks. A large proportion of the population in Ghana are rural based and depends on agriculture for sustenance, in as much as the health of the citizens are concerned. Enhanced and stable growth of the agriculture sector is important as it plays a vital role not only in generating purchasing power among the rural population by creating on-farm and off-farm employment opportunities but also through its contribution to price stability. In Ghana, although the share of agriculture in real GDP is declining, it continues to be an important sector as it employs about 57% of the labour force in Ghana.
