This paper, focusing on two rice-farming villages where the Burmese government has experimented with a variety of agricultural programmes, explores the problems associated with rice implementation processes. In particular it looks at the basic structure and operation of agricultural administration — salary and income of government officials, the predominance of military officers in civilian ministries and departments, the creation of departments with overlapping responsibilities, and the hierarchical structure of the Agricultural Ministry — and highlight their limitations. It provides another aspect to evaluating the roots of poverty among average rice farmers.
本文聚焦于缅甸政府在两个水稻种植村庄试行多种农业项目的情况，探讨了与水稻实施过程相关的问题。具体而言，它审视了农业行政管理的基本结构与运作——政府官员的薪资和收入、文职部委和部门中军官占主导、职责重叠部门的设立以及农业部的层级结构——并突出了其局限性。这为评估普通稻农贫困根源提供了另一个视角。
