Ramón López, Timothy S. Thomas

Open publisher page 5 citations

Abstract

Almost 50 per cent of the population in Paraguay is rural and about 90 per cent of the rural population is employed in agriculture (Jazairy et al ., 1992). There are indications that the incidence and severity of poverty in rural areas is much worse than in urban areas. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
