Answer 1

People's Republic of Bangladesh
Population: 147,365,352 (July 2006 est.)

Land Area: 133,910 sq km
Land use: arable land: 55.39% (74,172 sq km)
permanent crops: 3.08% (4124 sq km, 5.56% of arable land)

GDP (official exchange rate): $69.02 billion (2006 est.)
GDP - composition by sector:
agriculture: 19.9% ($13.7 billion)
industry: 20.6%
services: 59.5% (2006 est.)

"Although more than half of GDP is generated through the service sector, nearly two-thirds of Bangladeshis are employed in the agriculture sector, with rice as the single-most-important product. Major impediments to growth include frequent cyclones and floods, inefficient state-owned enterprises, inadequate port facilities, a rapidly growing labor force that cannot be absorbed by agriculture, delays in exploiting energy resources (natural gas), insufficient power supplies, and slow implementation of economic reforms. Reform is stalled in many instances by political infighting and corruption at all levels of government. Progress also has been blocked by opposition from the bureaucracy, public sector unions, and other vested interest groups. The BNP government, led by Prime Minister Khaleda ZIA, has the parliamentary strength to push through needed reforms, but the party's political will to do so has been lacking in key areas."
"Bangladesh's dependence on food imports and, in particular, food aid throughout the years has been cause for concern. Food imports in Bangladesh currently represent approximately 18 percent of total imports and absorb 34 percent of total export earnings. In 1990/91, food aid represented 98 percent of total food imports but this has been reduced considerably to representing 30 percent of total food imports in 1995/96. The significant difference has essentially been made up by private sector imports, which began in 1992/93."

Republic of Uganda
Population: 28,195,754

Land Area: 199,710 sq km
Land use: arable land: 21.57% (43,077 sq km)
permanent crops: 8.92% (17,814 sq km, 41% of arable land)

GDP (official exchange rate): $8.502 billion (2006 est.)
GDP - composition by sector:
agriculture: 29.4% ($2.5 billion)
industry: 22.1%
services: 48.5% (2006 est.)

"Uganda has substantial natural resources, including fertile soils, regular rainfall, and sizable mineral deposits of copper and cobalt. Agriculture is the most important sector of the economy, employing over 80% of the work force. Coffee accounts for the bulk of export revenues. Since 1986, the government - with the support of foreign countries and international agencies - has acted to rehabilitate and stabilize the economy by undertaking currency reform, raising producer prices on export crops, increasing prices of petroleum products, and improving civil service wages. The policy changes are especially aimed at dampening inflation and boosting production and export earnings. During 1990-2001, the economy turned in a solid performance based on continued investment in the rehabilitation of infrastructure, improved incentives for production and exports, reduced inflation, gradually improved domestic security, and the return of exiled Indian-Ugandan entrepreneurs. In 2000, Uganda qualified for enhanced Highly Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) debt relief worth $1.3 billion and Paris Club debt relief worth $145 million. These amounts combined with the original HIPC debt relief added up to about $2 billion. Growth for 2001-02 was solid despite continued decline in the price of coffee, Uganda's principal export. Growth in 2003-06 reflected an upturn in Uganda's export markets."

Nepal
Population: 28,287,147 (July 2006 est.)
Land Area: 143,181 sq km
Land use: arable land: 16.07% (23,009 sq km)
permanent crops: 0.85% (1217 sq km, 5.28% of arable land)

GDP (official exchange rate): $7.154 billion (2006 est.)
GDP - composition by sector:
agriculture: 38% ($2.72 billion)
industry: 21%
services: 41% (2005 est.)

" Nepal is among the poorest and least developed countries in the world with almost one-third of its population living below the poverty line. Agriculture is the mainstay of the economy, providing a livelihood for three-fourths of the population and accounting for 38% of GDP. Industrial activity mainly involves the processing of agricultural produce including jute, sugarcane, tobacco, and grain. Security concerns relating to the Maoist conflict have led to a decrease in tourism, a key source of foreign exchange. Nepal has considerable scope for exploiting its potential in hydropower and tourism, areas of recent foreign investment interest. Prospects for foreign trade or investment in other sectors will remain poor, however, because of the small size of the economy, its technological backwardness, its remoteness, its landlocked geographic location, its civil strife, and its susceptibility to natural disaster."


Uganda is actually using 8 times its arable land for crops (in terms of percentage of arable land: 41% instead of Bangladesh’s 5.56%) and over four times the land in area (17,814 sq km instead of Bangladesh’s 4124 sq km).

Uganda’s per-capita agricultural GDP, at $88.67, is slightly lower than Bangladesh’s $92.97, only because of the recent decline in the wholesale price of coffee, Uganda’s principle export.

Bangladesh imported $1.737 ($11.79 per capita) billion in food stuffs as opposed to Uganda’s $254 million ($9.01 per capita)

I believe that the most agriculturally developed country of the three is Uganda, with Bangladesh second (close in some ways, not close in others) and Nepal a distant third.

Answer 2

I agree Bangladesh..think about Nepal, Highland climate is too cold for intensive agriculture. Uganda is considered a developing country, most agriculture would be done on a small local scale and possibly by hand. Bangladesh has a rich river basin, and is a part of the South Asian population cluster (soon to overtake the E. Asian) It has to support a lot of people so it has to be very productive.

Answer 3

agriculture is whatevewr grows in a given region. farmland is decreasing in many areas, but is increasing in others regardless of whether it is good or bad bad for the environment.

Answer 4
