Thi udy inveigaed he deerminan of agriculural crop expor upply for Kenya over he period Annual ime erie daa were colleced from Kenya Saiical Abrac and he IMF Inernaional Financial Saiic (IFS). A diequilibrium model of agriculural crop expor wa ued. The regreion reul howed ha he real exchange rae wa a ignifican deerminan of ea, pyrehrum and horiculure expor bu no of coffee expor. Producive capaciy a proxied by GDP wa found o be a ignifican in deermining coffee, ea and aggregae expor. El-Nino rainfall, a capured by a dummy, wa ignifican for coffee expor, while rade liberalizaion, alo capured by a dummy wa only ignifican in deermining pyrehrum expor. Key word: Agriculural, Expor, Real exchange rae, Kenya Inroducion Like in many Sub Saharan African counrie, agriculure ha an imporan role in Kenya overall economic developmen. Kenya agriculural ecor make everal pecific conribuion o he economy. Fir, agriculural expor conribue over 6 percen o oal annual foreign exchange earning (Republic of Kenya. 1996). Thi i imporan becaue a noed by Tom and Faick (1967), many le developed counrie depend heavily upon agriculural expor for foreign exchange earning o finance impor of capial good. Secondly he ecor aborb a large proporion of he labour force in rural area ha i, abou 8 percen, and mo of hem depend on he agriculural ecor for heir livelihood (Republic of Kenya, 199). Moreover, agriculure i he ource of food for he counry, wih more han 8 percen of he food conumed coming from local producion (Republic of Kenya, 199). Finally, agriculure i a ource of raw maerial for agro-baed indurie. Agriculural expor in Sub-Saharan Africa have declined ignificanly in he la wo decade. The region hare of global agriculural expor ha declined from 8.% o 3.6% in. 5

2 Cener for Promoing Idea, USA For he very poor counrie boh manufacured and agriculural expor have declined (Tonia and John, 5). Like in many Sub Saharan counrie, agriculural expor in Kenya have been declining. The annual volume of Kenya agriculural expor for major crop i hown below for he year Toal agriculural expor (on) year Fig 1.1 Graph of Kenya agriculural expor for major crop, (in on). In he fir wo decade afer independence, agriculural expor were hi by boh negaive and poiive exernal hock in he form of wo oil crie (1973 and 1978) and he 1976/77 coffee boom, repecively. Oil crie led o decline in GDP, which i one of he deerminan of expor. In 197, here wa an increae in agriculural expor which coincided wih he rade liberalizaion of 197 (Republic of Kenya, 198). The increae in 1976 wa a a reul of inroducion of expor promoion aciviie. For example, he Expor Compenaion Scheme (ECS) in 1976 and eablihmen of he Kenya Exernal Trade Auhoriy (KETA), which renghened and reorganized expor promoion. There wa a decline in he agriculural expor beween 198 and 1985, which wa a a reul of he removal of bonu rae of 15 percen o hoe exporer who had increaed heir expor he previou year and he impac of 198 drough. Agriculural expor marked an increae in 1993, when hey roe harply o reach he highe peak. Thi coincided wih he removal of foreign exchange conrol, rade barrier and progreive implemenaion of reform. The poor performance in wa accompanied by ignifican reducion in quaniie and price of mo expor iem (Republic of Kenya, 1999). Thi perhap wa due o bad wheher condiion, ha i, abnormal rain in 1997/98. The increae in 1999 wa a a reul of El-Nino rainfall. The governmen of Kenya recognize ha increae in agriculural crop expor can conribue ignificanly o economic growh and welfare (Republic of Kenya, 1986). Indeed, ome of he economic reform purued by he governmen were aimed a expor promoion hrough expor crop uch a coffee, ea and horiculure and diverificaion of expor. However, Kenya ha experienced low expor growh rae in general, and agriculural expor in paricular (Republic of Kenya, 1). Thi i depie he meaure aken by he governmen o boo expor uch a expor promoion cheme. In heir udie of expor in Kenya, Okore (1987) and Ng eno (1991), focued on manufacured expor and aggregae expor repecively, on he bai of daa running up o mid 198. Thi udy focued on agriculural expor upply. The ample period encompae pre and po liberalizaion period o ake ino conideraion he likely impac of rade liberalizaion on he upply of agriculural expor, which ha no been done in Kenya. In addiion he udy employed recen advance in ime erie economeric modeling o boo i predicive power. Maerial and mehod Modeling agriculural expor funcion The upply of agriculural expor i aumed o be influenced by relaive price beween raded and non raded good i.e. real exchange rae, domeic capaciy variable proxied by GDP, rainfall and rade liberalizaion, he wo laer one being capured by dummie. 55

Thee finding indicae ha he lef hand ide of he model i an I() which implie ha he regreion uing Ordinary Lea Square (OLS) i meaningful, hence no valuable long-erm informaion wa o be lo if hey were o be differenced. Since all variable apar from producive capaciy in he model were found o be aionary, coinegraion e wa no neceary. Model elecion crieria Before eimaing he model, a deciion wa made regarding he number of lag o be included. The Akaike Informaion Crierion (AIC) and he Schwarz Bayeian Crierion (SBC) were ued for hi purpoe. From he reul AIC and SBC poined o one (1) a he appropriae lag lengh for ea expor and he aggregae model (volume of ea, coffee, horiculure and pyrehrum). For coffee and horiculure expor model, AIC wa minimal when he number of lag equal one, while SBC when number of lag equal wo. For boh model, he appropriae number of lag choen wa wo ince SBC i a uperior crieria han AIC. For pyrehrum expor model, he be lag lengh wa wo ince i wa he lowe value of he informaion crieria. Diagnoic e for regreion reidual Before reporing he regreion reul for he model eimaed, diagnoic e reul were preened and dicued fir. The J-B normaliy e wa applied o e wheher he erie i normally diribued or no. The null hypohei ae ha he regreion reidual are normally diribued. A mall probabiliy value (p-value) for J-B coefficien lead o he rejecion of hi hypohei. The reul a hown by he able below how ha he aggregae of he eleced crop, individual crop; ea, horiculure, pyrehrum and coffee expor model give J-B e aiic of.5,.1, 3.5,.7 and.6 wih probabiliy value of.57,.67,.55,.66 and.56 repecively. The null hypohee were acceped ince probabiliie are greaer han.5, which indicae ha he reidual are normally diribued. To e wheher reidual were erially correlaed LM e wa applied. The null hypohei of he LM e i ha here i no erial correlaion up o lag order p, where p i a pre-pecified ineger (Godfrey, 1988). A mall probabiliy value of le han.5 lead o he rejecion of hi hypohei.

The reul how ha here i no heerokedaiciy preen in he reidual ince he probabiliie of hi e for all expor model are more han.5. Ree which and for Regreion Specificaion Error Te wa o e for omied variable, incorrec funcional form of a model and correlaion beween he independen variable and he error erm. The null hypohei ae ha here i no mipecificaion in he model. A mall probabiliy of hi e lead o rejecion of he null hypohei. The reul of all model rejeced he null hypohei ince hey all had probabiliy value greaer han.5. Therefore, all he model were well pecified and parameer were no omied.
