The Minister of Agriculture stressed the absorptive capacity of the sector.

(d) Linking sentence length with prison capacity.

Then there is the unnecessary debate about absorptive capacity.

In the meantime, countries are working to improve logistics and uptake.

In the negotiations, full consideration should be given to the level of development and the assimilation capacity of developing countries.

The question is how to increase the absorptive capacity of the region and build a modern industrial base.

All of these actions should help increase the absorptive capacity for foreign capital.

The system is cracking, but only because of the limits of its absorptive capacity, not because of its core principles.

The continued confiscation of Palestinian lands by Israel has substantially undermined the agricultural sector's absorptive capacity.

The use of the shortest possible distribution channels is vital for increasing capacity and retaining more value added.

It brings carrying capacity down, and there's not enough carrying capacity to support the people. And then you're in trouble.

As for capacity, its capacity is planned for 12 million, but plans to boost it to 24 million are in the works.

Now, that's also wrong, because traffic happens to be a nonlinear phenomenon, meaning that once you reach above a certain capacity threshold then congestion starts to increase really, really rapidly.

But even with their deadweight of 441,585 metric tons, sailing as VLCC most of the time, they do not use more than 70 of their total capacity.

Countries that benefit most from FDI are those whose domestic firms and institutions also benefit, and thus those that have the requisite absorptive capacity.

In addition, the characteristics of the host economy (level of development, absorptive capacity and market structure in individual industries) are also crucial to assessing the impact of potential investments.

Developing countries must be assessed severally, not collectively, to determine whether they have the system of governance and the absorptive capacity to benefit from increased levels of resources.

However, a backlog of investments in pipeline and port capacity and more generally in energy infrastructure has put a limit on growth in the sector, at least in the short term.

It was true that the capacity of Korydallos prison in Athens was but one third of its actual occupancy, but that was because of a wish expressed by the detainees to remain in Athens, near friends and family.

Moreover, huge waves of migrants from developing countries to OECD countries challenge the assimilation capacity of the latter and deprive the former of its educated work force. In the US and Germany, 13 of the population is foreign born, as are 8 of France inhabitants and 10 of Britain s.

The relocation is facing problems, including the camp absorption capacity and the provision of assistance, despite the World Food Programme (WFP) provision of one time emergency food for some 4,500 persons.

The same is true of foreign direct investment (FDI). Countries that benefit most from FDI are those whose domestic firms and institutions also benefit, and thus those that have the requisite absorptive capacity.

The focus ranges from the total carrying capacity (sustainability) of planet Earth to the sustainability of economic sectors, ecosystems, countries, municipalities, neighbourhoods, home gardens, individual lives, individual goods and services, occupations, lifestyles, behaviour patterns and so on.

While there has been a slight increase in the absorptive capacity of the operating and development budgets, the Government still lacks the capacity to meet donor requirements for the project documents and feasibility studies that are necessary for the release of donor funds.

This is because the shot noise of an optical communication channel is greater than the thermal noise of an electrical channel which, from information theory, means that more signal power is required to achieve the same data capacity.

The Group's findings highlighted the challenge faced by UNIDO in providing effective technical cooperation delivery to the least developed countries (LDCs) and backward regions that lacked strong counterpart institutions with adequate absorption capacity.

4. Also stresses the need for all Governments to ensure the necessary conditions, including the creation of transparent legal and regulatory frameworks, to facilitate the acquisition and development of technology, to enhance innovation capacity, to improve the absorptive capacity of local enterprises and to build up supply capabilities

The environmental impact of a community or of humankind as a whole depends both on population and impact per person, which in turn depends in complex ways on what resources are being used, whether or not those resources are renewable, and the scale of the human activity relative to the carrying capacity of the ecosystems involved.

Most of these resources were provided to UNCTAD projects in the 2001 2004 period 2,395,000, of which 83 per cent had been disbursed by mid 2005, a satisfactory high rate considering the war torn conditions of the economy and reduced absorptive capacity of Palestinian institutions.
