| الملخص: | The paddy sub-sector assumes an important position in
Malaysian agriculture. It is characterized by a high level of
poverty of 50.2 per cent in 1987, and a range of structural
problems including low productivity, high product ion cost and
short age of labour. Technologically movativation is seen to be
important in overcoming these problems. The fact that paddy
production is now confined only to the granary areas means that
technology will become increasingly important as a means to
increase productivity and output if the target ted 60-75 percent national self sufficiency level is to be attained. This study aims to elucidate the role and impact of credit
on technology and farm performance among paddy farmers. Two
samples of paddy farmers are chosen, one from Tanjong Karang
which represents a technologically advanced area, and the other from Beranang which re presents atraditional and less
innovative area. |
