| Traditional spatial equilibrium models have assumed that markets are either perfectly competitive or monopolistic. In this paper, a generalized spatial equilibrium model is developed which allows for any degree of market conduct from perfect competition to monopoly. The model incorporates a "dual structure" in which there are oligopolistic consignment sellers (producer marketing boards) and perfectly competitive producers receiving pooled returns. The usefulness of the model is demonstrated using Kyushu regional milk market data in Japan. Numerous spatial equilibrium solutions are generated for the Kyushu milk market assuming alternative sets of imperfectly competitive behavior with the "dual structure." It is demonstrated that actual interregional milk... |

| The purpose of this report is to catalog, describe, and provide information concerning existing models of the dairy sector. Many types of dairy models are listed in this report. The models vary by geographic aggregation (e.g., farm, state, regional, national, and international levels), time dimension (e.g., comparative static, annual, quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily specifications), principal application (e.g., Federal Milk Marketing Order, dairy price support program, operations analysis, etc.), computer requirements (mainframe vs. micro-computer, DOS vs. Apple), ease of use, i.e., "user friendliness," and other dimensions. The report should be useful for individuals interested in the dairy industry, public policy, or quantitative methods. |

| As a first effort at modeling nonalcoholic beverage demand in a systemwide framework that includes bottled water, this article examines the impact of advertising on the demand for nonalcoholic beverages in the United States. We employed an AIDS (almost ideal demand system) model of five jointly estimated equations that included advertising expenditures as explanatory variables to evaluate annual U.S. consumption of nonalcoholic beverages for 1974 through 2005. Results suggest that advertising increases demand for fluid milk, soft drinks, and coffee and tea, but not for juice or bottled water. Advertising spillover effects occur in over 50 percent of the cases considered, and such effects can be substantial, particularly for advertising of soft drinks, and... |

| The dominant pattern in U.S. non-alcoholic drink: consumption over the past 25 years has been a steady increase in per capita soft-drink: consumption, largely at the expense of coffee (and to a lesser extent) milk consumption. Our findings suggest that the major factor governing this pattern is structural change. Specifically, trend was found to be statistically significant in three of the four equations estimated in the Rotterdam system. Moreover, the estimated trend-related changes in per capita consumption (-1.0 percent per year for milk, 2. 1 percent for soft drinks, and 3.7 percent for coffee and tea) leave at most 28 percent ofthe observed quantity variation for 1990-1994 to be accounted for by changes in relative prices, income, and advertising.... |

| The U.S. dairy industry has operated under a price support program since 1949. Between 1949 and 1980, the dairy price support program generally operated without incurring large government costs and was an effective price stabilizer. However, since 1980, the dairy industry has experienced chronic excess production relative to consumption and consequently government purchases under the price support program have been excessively large (particularly in the mid-1980s). The tremendous increase in government costs of the dairy price support program and a growing dissatisfaction with the program by farmers has prompted proposals to modify or replace this program. This paper examines the potential market impacts of five different dairy policy scenarios. The five... |

| This paper investigates the impacts of alternative federal dairy policies on the U.S. dairy sector. In addition to the current dairy price support program, five alternatives are investigated: (1) immediate deregulation, (2) gradual deregulation, (3) target price-deficiency payment program without supply control, (4) target price-deficiency payment program with supply control, and (5) mandatory supply control. An econometric model of the national dairy industry is used to simulate quarterly equilibrium price and quantity values at the farm and wholesale levels for each policy over the period 1980-90. Consumers are better off under both immediate and gradual deregulation, as well as the target price-deficiency payment scenarios because prices are lower,... |

| Anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide and other "greenhouse" gases have the potential to substantially warm climates worldwide. While the timing and magnitude of global warming is uncertain, scientists on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predict that average global temperature may increase by 1.5- 4.5³C (2.7-8.1³F) over the next 100 years. Changes in precipitation will likely accompany any changes in temperature. However, the magnitude, and even direction of these changes is difficult to predict with much confidence on a regional basis. The agricultural sector may be profoundly affected by future changes in temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, and carbon dioxide concentrations. Over the past decade, there has been a... |

| The market impacts of generic dairy advertising are assessed using an industry model which encompasses supply and demand conditions at the retail, wholesale, and farm levels, and government intervention under the dairy price support program. The estimated model is used to simulate price and quantity values for four advertising scenarios: (1) no advertising, (2) historical fluid advertising, (3) historical manufactured advertising, and (4) historical fluid and manufactured advertising. Compared to previous studies, the dairy-industry model provides additional insights into the way generic dairy advertising influences prices and quantities at the retail, wholesale, and farm levels. |

| The objective of the research reported here is to develop a more flexible and comprehensive policy simulation model for imperfectly competitive international agricultural trade with various trade and domestic support policies. The model is a nonlinear imperfectly competitive spatial equilibrium model formulated as a MCP. The model is flexible in that it can simulate the economic effects of the following trade policies: specific duties, ad valorem tariffs, tariff-rate quotas, export subsidies, production subsidies, production quotas, consumption taxes and price floor, combined with various imperfectly competitive market structures. The usefulness of the model is demonstrated with an application to international wheat trade simulated under several... |

| The purpose of this paper is to document and describe a computer program which simulates the impact of alternative dairy policies and technologies on important dairy market variables such as farm and retail prices and quantities. Several policy and technology scenarios are simulated to illustrate the output of the program. The model, which is called the National Economic Milk Policy Impact Simulator (NEMPIS), is general in specifications of the duration of the simulation period, policy instruments, and technological choices. The computer software is available to anyone, provided that they send the author an IBM compatible formatted floppy disk. The model should be of interest to economists, policy makers, and dairy scientists interested in analyzing farm... |
