On Self Selection in PES Schemes AgEcon
Russell, Noel P.; Sauer, Johannes.
This paper investigates participation by farmers in the UK Environmental Stewardship Schemes and how decisions to join the scheme are related to land productivity levels on the one hand and ecological conservation on the other. In particular the paper will explore the extent to which the self selection of farmers onto the scheme influences likely scheme performance. The first part of the paper analyses a theoretical model for the provision of ecological services where an uninformed government agency offers to contracts to well-informed farmers. The results of this analysis indicate the extent to which self selection by farmers can impair the efficiency of PES schemes and point to specific strategies that might be used by a government agency to mitigate...

The Economics of Biodiversity Conservation in Agricultural Transition AgEcon
Omer, Amani A.; Pascual, Unai; Russell, Noel P..
This paper explores the dynamic effects of biodiversity conservation on agricultural production in the context of specialised intensive farming systems that may be in transition towards more sustainable farming. The focus is on the analysis of the dynamic effects of changes in the levels of agrobiodiversity, on technical change and productivity in intensive agricultural systems. A theoretical model is used to derive hypotheses regarding these linkages that are empirically tested using a stochastic production frontier model with data from a panel of UK cereal farms for the period 1989-2000. The results suggest that the increased agrobiodiversity has positively helped to shift the production frontier outwards. This indicates that agricultural transition from...

Technology, preferences and the sustainable intensification of agricultural production AgEcon
Russell, Noel P.; Omer, Amani A.; Pascual, Unai.
This paper addresses the relationship between agrobiodiversity conservation and sustainable agricultural intensification. A stylised theoretical model is used to explore the conditions by which both agrobiodiversity and conventional input intensification may increase through optimal adjustments of input use in biodiversity poor agroecosystems. The model shows that this result can arise in quite general circumstances where there is (1) an agricultural production technology that allows a positive relationship between ecological integrity of a given agricultural area and agricultural productivity in that area, and (2) decision maker preferences that recognise this positive relationship and generate resource allocation decisions that support it. While increase...

Economics and Biodiversity in Intensively Managed Agro-Ecosystems AgEcon

This indicates that the evolution of an intensive agricultural system to less intensive use of inputs can...
