| Partial equilibrium analysis is used to estimate the social costs of production control in the Australian egg industry. These costs are compared with the estimates of the social cost of the home consumption price scheme which has operated in the past. The comparison is made for various supply and demand conditions and for alternative pricing and quota policies. The method used is to model historical supply and demand relationships for the years 1965-6 to 1972-3. Actual price and quantity data for these years is then used to estimate the social cost of home consumption pricing as it operated in that period. Simulated production controls are imposed on the model and the resulting social costs and benefits are estimated. |

| The development of a simulation model of an extensive pastoral farming system to assist analysts in their assessment of government policy measures is described. The model was designed to simulate, over a number of years, the physical and financial operation of a sheep and beef production system typically found in the North Island hill country of New Zealand. By manipulating model parameters and data related to prices, costs, taxation and credit, a range of policies can be represented and their effects simulated. The model is used to undertake an ex post analysis of the farm-level impact of the supplementary minimum price scheme in New Zealand and to project farm performance following the abolition of the scheme. Consideration is given to the use of the... |
