Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 April 2015
Extract
Community leaders of rural areas characterized by low-income and surplus labor seeking ways to promote rural development, frequently encourage new firms to process the primary products of the region.

Impact multipliers are often used to measure income and employment impacts created from processing primary products.
