Abstract EN

The importance of research in agricultural growth comes particularly as the cornerstone of poverty reduction and food security in developing countries.

The United Nations estimates that among the various countries shows that GDP growth from agriculture effective in reducing poverty at least equivalent to the effectiveness of growth resulting from the non-agricultural sectors.

While is determined by the problem in that relationship translated to the eventual impact on poverty levels, the research aims to identify how they will impact of agricultural growth in poverty.

It is possible, that the rates of agricultural growth alone is an effective tool to reduce poverty.

Based on the premise that economic variables did not generate these effects in accelerating the growth rate of agricultural output and in a form that generates a positive impact towards easing the rates of agricultural poverty.

The study identified a sample of selected developing countries in 2004.

The findings of the study shows that there is a negative and significant correlation between the rate of agricultural growth and the Gini coefficient of the sample countries, due to the impact of agricultural growth to alleviate poverty, diminish the presence of increasing disparity in income, and agricultural growth alone in the absence of a number of factors that address the situation of disability suffered by the rural sectors which may leave behind large numbers of poor people for a long time, especially in rural areas, as well as the effect of growth in reducing poverty depends on the nature and growth distribution as it depends on its size and speed.
