Última MODELING FARMERS PREFENCES FOR AGRIENVIRONMENTAL SCHEME DESIGN: A SPANISH CASE STUDY AgEcon Espinosa-Goded, Maria; Barreiro-Hurlé, Jesús; Ruto, Eric. Agri-environmental schemes (AES) have had a limited effect on European agriculture due to farmer’s reluctance to participate in them. Information on the role that AES design can have on encouraging farmers to participate can be an important input into the design of such policies. This paper investigates farmers’ preferences for different design options related to a specific AES in Spain using a mixed logit error component choice experiment approach allowing for preference heterogeneity and correlation amongst the non status quo alternatives. In particular, findings show farmers preference for greater flexibility in scheme implementation, presence of a fixed-rate payment per contract and additional advisory services. However, heterogeneity in the value of...

Management of food-borne illnesses is important in ensuring food safety to consumers in both domestic and export markets. In livestock trade, various measures are prescribed under the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Standards (SPS) agreement of the World Trade Organization (WTO). With regard to food safety, the SPS agreement recommends establishment of Disease Free Zones (DFZs)in order to manage the spread of trans-boundary cattle diseases. DFZs have been successfully implemented in major beef exporting countries such as Australia, Botswana, Brazil and Namibia. In Kenya however, the DFZs are still in a pilot stage and it is important to understand farmers’ preferences on the type of DFZ that would be readily acceptable to them. A choice experiment survey was...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/91951 Technical efficiency and technology gaps in beef cattle production systems in Kenya: A stochastic metafrontier analysis AgEcon Otieno, David Jakinda; Hubbard, Lionel J.; Ruto, Eric. In this study the stochastic metafrontier method is used to investigate technical efficiency and technology gaps across three main beef cattle production systems in Kenya. Results show that there is significant inefficiency in nomadic and agro-pastoral systems. Further, in contrast with ranches, these two systems were found to have lower technology gap ratios. The average pooled technical efficiency was estimated to be 0.69, which suggests that there is considerable scope to improve beef production in Kenya Tipo: Conference Paper or Presentation Palavras-chave: Technical efficiency; Technology gap; Beef cattle; Production systems; Stochastic metafrontier; Kenya.; Livestock Production/Industries; D24; O32; Q18.
