Producción y Productividad Agrícolas en la Isla de Mallorca, 1590-1860

This paper proposes a detailed measurement of the agricultural development of the island of Majorca from the late sixteenth century to the midnineteenth century, with an emphasis on the products which made up the bulk of the island’s agricultural production. The authors have organized most of the existing databases in the island’s archives and have also incorporated quantitative and qualitative material from their own research and that of other colleagues. Due to their quality and regularity, the data are among the richest known for pre-industrial Europe. These sources lead to some conclusions which link with recent debates in European economic history concerning the calculation of economic growth in economies for periods before statistics were kept. The text presents a methodological analysis covering almost 80 per cent of agricultural production of the island of Majorca and leaves conclusions to be supplemented by further studies of the manufacturing and service sectors

Productividad, competencia e innovación en la banca privada española (1900-1914)

This study investigates the productivity differences and its sourcesacross a set of banks during the last years of the liberal era of theSpanish banking system (1900-1914). These years were characterised bymajor qualitative and quantitative changes in the banking industry includinga sharp increase in the size of the system, in the number of firms, andin its regional distribution. Employing DEA productivity analysis andthe Malmquist index, we discover that these changes were accompanied bya generalised increase in the efficiency of least productive banks. Also,we observe that the crisis of some regional banking groups, like theCatalan, can be linked with its low productivity levels. In consequence,in the light of our productivity evidence, we conclude that the increasein competition was beneficial for the system because helped to the successof the most efficient banks.

Contaminación en los puertos del Callao y Chimbote y su efecto en la productividad

Describe los problemas de contaminación identificados en 1979, producidos por cobre, fierro, y desechos domésticos e industriales frente al Callao y Chimbote y cómo se relacionan con los factores físicos y químicos del ambiente marino, así como también estudia sus efectos en la producción primaria.

Hidraulica Agricola e Desenvolvimento Rural - Estudos e Projetos - Relatorio Detalhado Integrador e Critico da Actividades Profissional

on agricultural hydraulics and rural development has been the main activity of the author in the last two decades. A large part of the professional career was devoted to studies and design of hydraulic infrastructures for the establishment of irrigation in Portugal. The recent years of his professional career focused on the internationalization of consulting services by drafting general plans, technical advises, design projects, training and specialized technical assistance to farmers and technicians. Angola and Cape Verde have been the stage of action. The present document was written with two main objectives: to obtain a Master of Science degree and to share with the community some relevant aspects of author’s work experience. The document was structured to emphasize three major units: the agricultural hydraulics, rural development and studies and projects. For these units were selected groups of activities considered relevant to the author's career: Alqueva Multi-Purpose Scheme, Rehabilitation and Modernization of Hydro-agricultural Schemes, Other Studies and Projects, Master Plans and Reports and Agriculture and Rural Development. In every activity is highlighted the aspects considered most important and which reflect the author's experience.
