Problem
a. How does the technology of agricultural production in use differ in, say, the Sudan from that used in a developed nation, like the United States? Why do such differences exist?
b. Could Sudan use the same kinds of technology - tractors, harvesters, combines, fertilizers, irrigation, and the know-how to effectively utilize these tools - on its lands? Why, or why not? (Hint: If you have learned about isoquants and isocost curves in one of your economics courses, draw two graphs with capital measured on one axis and labor on the other. Make one of the graphs for the Sudan and the other for the US. Consider how the different prices of capital and labor in the two countries might affect the most efficient combination of machines and labor in use.)
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
