肯尼亚的农村贸易和生产中心计划旨在利用小城镇刺激农业和畜牧业潜力尚未得到满足的地区的市场和就业扩张。该程序的逻辑与此处介绍的基于公式的方法一致。该方法旨在告知规划者小城镇的投资地点。该方法使用地理技术来界定市场区域并定义其一些特征。这种方法明确承认城乡联系在发展决策中的重要性。这些地点选择的具体方法应适用于其他试图扩大农业和就业市场的发展中国家。
Kenya's Rural Trade and Production Center Program is designed to use small towns to stimulate market and employment expansion in areas of high unmet agricultural and livestock potential. The logic of the program is consistent with a formula-based method presented here. The method is intended to inform planners of locations for investments in small towns. Geographical techniques are used in this method to delimit market areas and define some of their characteristics. This methodology distinctly acknowledges the importance of rural-urban linkages in development decisions. The specific approaches to these location choices should be adaptable to other developing countries attempting to expand agricultural and employment markets.
