The Ramsey model of optimal capital accumulation is reconsidered under the additional restriction that gross investment must be nonnegative. An effective characterization of the optimal solution in open-loop form is obtained. It is shown, however, that in general no restriction can be placed on the number of intervals in which the non negativity constraint is binding.
