| Abstract | In this study, a framework for future development of the fertilizer industry in South Vietnam is studied. Firstly, an industrial development
situation and the overall economic development in South Vietnam is briefly reviewed. This review, specifically, attempts to give an idea or a framework of the present state of the manufacturing sector, generally, on the overall economic development situation. Further, it also attempts to point out the importance of fertilizer on the agricultural development
with respect to South Vietnam conditions. Moreover, the present state of the fertilizer industry is also briefly considered, and more important, the availability of raw-materials needed for the development of the
fertilizer industry. Secondly, an econometric model is used to construct a demand function for fertilizer in order to study the demand in South Vietnam. Multiple Regression analysis is used in this problem to find
out the correlation between the variables in the model, and a computer programme is used to solve the problem on a CDC 3600 computer using FORTRAN.
Thirdly, the linkage effect of the development of the fertilizer industry with other sectors is also briefly studied to emphasize the importance of the fertilizer industry on the National Economic Development Situation. |
