摘要

The article examines the magnitude and determinants of rural poverty at Zeghe Peninsula. It is done based on the dimension of poverty expressed in terms of consumption expenditure. Data were collected through questionnaire survey from 200 sample households. The Foster-Greer-Thorbeck (FGT) measure of intensity of poverty and the logit model were used. FGT is composed of additively decomposable poverty indices of incidence, depth and severity. Based on the FGT result, 68.5% are poor, and 18.7% constitutes the poorest of the poor in the Peninsula (i.e., severity). The percentage shortfall of consumption expenditure of the poor from the poverty line (i.e., depth) is 32.8%. From the logit model, variables like large land holding size, better suitability of land for coffee production, participation of households in contractual farming activities, engagement of households in petty trading, beekeeping and fishing activities decreased the probability of households to be poor. High dependency ratio and participation of households in firewood-selling activities increased the chance of households to fall into poverty. This implies that any development endeavor that aims at improving the welfare of people of the Peninsula should focus on these correlates of poverty.View full textDownload full textKEYWORDSrural poverty, poverty line, magnitude, determinants and Zeghe PeninsulaRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10875549.2010.494953
