External shocks and policy alternatives in small open economies: The case of El Salvador por Morley, Samuel, Piñeiro, Valeria, Robinson, Sherman

“…Because El Salvador's economy is dollarized, that real devaluation can only come about through a fall in domestic prices brought about by recession. We show that the impact of the shock on output depends on how flexible wages are—the impact is smaller when real wages are flexible and greatest when they are fixed in dollars.We used the CGE model to analyze alternative investment strategies for increasing the growth rate. …”

Impacts of COVID-19 on food systems and poverty in Nigeria por Andam, Kwaw S., Edeh, Hyacinth O., Oboh, Victor, Pauw, Karl, Thurlow, James

“…Given the scale of these economic losses, our recovery scenarios indicate that, even with a rapid easing of restrictions and global recovery, Nigeria is unlikely to escape a deep economic recession. We conclude that, while food systems were exempt, they were not immune to the effects of COVID-19. …”

Responding to the world food crisis-- Getting on the Right Track: IFPRI 2007-2008 Annual Report Essay por von Braun, Joachim

“…But because no one actually knows what the future holds, it is important that responses to this crisis help build the kind of food and agriculture system that can cope with a variety of possible outcomes, ranging from even higher food and energy prices to a possible short-term glut of low-priced food emerging from the current high-price environment and a world in which demand collapses due to recession. Millions of poor people would benefit from a system that would allow policymakers and others to respond calmly and rationally to eventualities like these instead of lurching from crisis to crisis. …”

“…Perched ground water table was measured at the gully heads and erosion pins were installed to monitor the rate of recession from uncontrolled heads. Though soil properties, ground cover, gully morphology had small contribution for the gully development; water fall effect at the head of the gully and elevated water table depth at both heads and banks played the key role. …”

“…Myanmar had one of the lowest confirmed COVID-19 caseloads in the world in mid-2020 and was one of the few developing countries not projected to go into economic recession.
