Yozlaşmanın Gambia ve Rekabetçi Komşu Ülkeleri Arasındaki Tarımsal İhracat Potansiyeline Etkisi

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, yozlaşma yüzdesi indeksi, döviz kuru ve Gayri Safi Milli Hasıla parametrelerini kullanarak yozlaşma ve tarımsal ihracat değişkenleri arasındaki karşılıklı etkileşimleri araştırmaktır. Çalışma, Gambiya ülkesini odağa almakta ancak karşılaştırma yapabilmek amacıyla rekabet halinde olunan komşu ülkeleri de ele almaktadır. Çalışma, altı Sahraaltı Afrika ülkesini, panel data değerlerine dayanarak, tarımsal ihracat değişkenlerinin belirleyicilerini analiz etmek amacıyla multi-nominal logit model kurmaktadır. Sonuçlar, yozlaşma değer indeksinin tarımsal ihracat üzerinde belirli oranlarda etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir. Önceki yıllardaki yozlaşma üretim indeks değerlerinin, Sahraaltı Afrika ülkelerinin mevcut yıldaki tarımsal ihracatını etkilediği görülmektedir. GSMH’deki artışlar, yozlaşma oranı indeksine paralel olarak tarımsal ihracata fayda sağlamaktadır. Bu noktada, politika yapıcılar, ticaret sektörü, iş ve sivil toplum hareketleri ve çeşitli hükümet yaklaşımları yolsuzluk atmosferinin önlenmesinde önem taşımaktadır. Bu kapsamda çalışma, tarımsal ihracat ve yozlaşma etkileşiminin nasıl olduğunu keşfetme ve teorik bir çerçeve oluşturma noktasında ilk örneği oluşturmaktadır.

Study constructs a multinominal logit model to analyze the determinants of agricultural export variations and depends on panel data belongs to six Sub-Saharan African countries. Study shows that, the corruption perception index had a probality on agricultural export. Value of corruption production index in the previous year was likely to contribute to the current agricultural export of Sub-Saharan Africa countries. Increases at Gross Domestic Product provide benefits to agricultural export in parallel with corruption perception index.
