    Groundnuts are grown as a source of cooking oil for domestic use and are the primary cash crop for all households. In most of the developing countries, the agricultural sector has been playing a major oil crop in Myanmar. This study analyzes groundnut production and relationship between inputs and outputs of groundnut production in Aung Lan Township. The study uses a descriptive method based on primary survey data and the Cobb-Douglas production function is applied to analyze the survey data. According to the result of the Cobb-Douglas function, the inputs of land, machine-animals, and fertilizer-pesticide are significant and their p-values are positive. However, the p-value of labor and seed is not significant, but they have a positive sign. Based on the result, it is suggested that not only the number of farmers but also the skill, knowledge, and experience of farmers are important. Thus, if farmers are more educated, they can more easily adopted in new technical knowledge. By providing agricultural extension services to respondents, it can be upgraded the knowledge of respondents of groundnut growers in ways of choosing better quality seed, proper utilization of fertilizer and pesticide and controlling and maintaining soil so as to improve their yield and production

    No full text
    Hlavním cílem práce je zhodnotit dosavadní vývoj příjezdového cestovního ruchu Vietnamců do ČR a navrhnout doporučení, jak ho zlepšit. V teoretické části jsou vymezeny pojmy z oboru cestovního ruchu, jako je cestovní ruch, turista, destinace a jiné. Menší část je také věnována pojmům z oblasti kultury, z toho důvodu, že téma souvisí s dvěma různými kulturami -- vietnamskou a českou, a kulturní odlišnosti hrají poměrně velkou roli v mezinárodním cestovním ruchu. V druhé kapitole je představena vietnamská kultura a také něco málo o rozvoji cestovního ruchu ve Vietnamu. Samozřejmě je kladen důraz na zdejší trend výjezdového cestovního ruchu do Evropy. Následuje pak analýza v třetí kapitole, která vyjasní, co všechno Česká republika může vietnamským turistům nabídnout jak z hlediska atraktivit, tak z hlediska materiálně technické vybavenosti destinace. Čtvrtá kapitola se zaměří na cestovní kanceláře, poskytující služby vietnamským turistům z Vietnamu, konkrétně na jejich produkt a jiné nabídky. Poslední kapitola bude popisovat současný stav příjezdového cestovního ruchu Vietnamců do ČR. Její součástí je také podkapitola věnující se výsledkům on-line dotazníkového šetření, které zjišťuje zájem vietnamských turistů o ČR a její atraktivity.The aim of the bachelor thesis is to evaluate the existing development of the Czech inbound tourism for tourists from Vietnam and to make suggestions, how to possibly improve it. This thesis is divided into two main parts, namely the theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part, the terms from tourism and culture are defined. In chapter 2 there is an introduction to the Vietnamese culture and the description of the development of Vietnamese tourism. Moreover, the author emphasizes the local trend of outbound tourism to Europe. In the next chapter, there will be an analysis, which clarifies, what the Czech Republic can offer to the Vietnamese tourists, from the point of view of both attractiveness and materially technical facilities of the destination. Chapter 4 focuses on tour operators, which provide Vietnamese tourists with many tourist services. In the last chapter the author discusses about the present situation of the inbound tourism of Vietnamese tourists in the Czech Republic. A sub chapter of this part is dedicated to the results of the on-line survey, which aimed to reveal the interests of the Vietnamese tourists in the Czech Republic
