A REGIONAL ECONOMETRIC MODEL OF U.S. APPLE PRODUCTION AgEcon
Roosen, Jutta.
A four-region econometric model of U.S. apple production and consumption is developed. Technical progress has benefited growers in the Northwest the most, but prices there are much lower in comparison to other regions. Estimated elasticities are used to estimate national and regional welfare impacts of pesticide cancellations.

A REGIONAL ECONOMETRIC MODEL OF U.S. APPLE SUPPLY AND DEMAND AgEcon
Roosen, Jutta.
An econometric model of U.S. apple supply and demand is estimated using annual data for 1971-1997. Supply is arranged into four geographical regions, the Northwest, the Southwest, the Central, and the East. The structural model consists of five components: supply, allocation between fresh and processed utilization, pricing, demand and net imports. Estimated supply elasticities illustrate regional differences in growers' ability to respond to market changes.

Adjustment of Wheat Production to Market Reform in Egypt AgEcon
Kherallah, Mylene; Minot, Nicholas; Gruhn, Peter.
In response to slow growth in the agricultural sector and as part of a general shift towards a more market-oriented economy, the Government of Egypt started liberalizing the agricultural sector in 1987. Controls over wheat production and marketing were eliminated and wheat producer prices were brought closer to international levels. As a result, there has been remarkable increases in wheat crop area and yields, causing wheat production to triple from 1986 to 1998. This study analyzes the results of a survey of 800 Egyptian wheat farmers in order to address three issues that are of interest to agricultural reform policy in Egypt. First, what are the patterns in wheat production and marketing that have emerged following the economic reforms? Second, why is...

AN AUTOMATED ECONOMETRIC APPROACH FOR ESTIMATING AND REPORTING DAILY COTTON MARKET PRICES AgEcon
Brown, Jeff E.; Ethridge, Don E.; Hudson, Darren; Engels, Carlos.
An automated price reporting system developed through computer technology and hedonic price theory is used to estimate daily cotton market prices, premiums, and discounts. This objective approach for reporting cotton market prices was developed to complement the objective measures of high volume instrument grading of cotton. The computerized, econometric system is limited to the Texas and Oklahoma marketing regions where sales are readily available from electronic markets. The econometric based system has shown all the characteristics of an efficient price reporting system; it is accurate, reliable, consistent, and repeatable in its working process and price estimates.

An Econometric Analysis of the Environmental Benefits Provided by the Conservation Reserve Program AgEcon
Fleming, Ronald A..
Over $1.7 billion has been spent on the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) since 1985. The purpose of this study is to show that these expenditures have aided the environment. Rather than quantify changes in environmental variables, a spatial econometric model is used to test if CRP enrollments are greater in counties with poorer environmental quality. In seven of nine regions, CRP enrollments are higher in counties with an environmental concern. This positive finding justifies past expenditures by the CRP and supports continued funding as an environmental program. The CRP is targeting current environmental concerns that will lead to future improvement.

Analyses of Generic Dairy Advertising, 1984-97 AgEcon
Blisard, Noel; Blayney, Donald P.; Chandran, Ram; Allshouse, Jane E..
Generic advertising raised fluid milk sales about 6.0 percent, or 18.1 billion pounds, between September 1984 and September 1997. Sales of cheese rose by about 6.8 billion pounds (milk equivalent) in the same period because of increased generic advertising. An assessment of 15 cents per hundredweight of milk sold commercially, mandated by the Dairy and Tobacco Adjustment Act of 1983, funded the advertising. Activities of the National Fluid Milk Processor Promotion Board also contributed to increased milk sales over the past year. Gross returns to dairy farmers between September 1984 and September 1997 were estimated to increase by $3.44 for each dollar spent on generic advertising.

CAN ECONOMETRIC ANALYSIS MAKE (AGRICULTURAL) ECONOMICS A HARD SCIENCE? CRITICAL REMARKS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR ECONOMIC METHODOLOGY AgEcon
Petrick, Martin.
This paper argues that mainstream economics does not follow the positivist research tradition it (often implicitly) claims to follow and expresses some serious doubt that econometrics in particular can make economics a hard science. Mathematical rigour and sophisticated statistical techniques may be regarded as persuasive analytical tools in economics, but their mere application does not guarantee good research practice. The paper outlines an alternative methodological view of pragmatic instrumentalism in which the well known tools of economic analysis can find a new place. Instead of relying on a narrow rule that purports to produce universal truth, this view encourages to increase the target area for questioning and probing. Much more attention is paid...

DEMAND ESTIMATION FOR AGRICULTURAL PROCESSING CO-PRODUCTS AgEcon
Wachenheim, Cheryl J.; Novak, Patrick J.; DeVuyst, Eric A.; Lambert, David K..
Co-products of processing agricultural commodities are often marketed through private transaction rather than through public markets or those in which public transaction information is recorded or available. The resulting lack of historical price information prohibits the use of positive time series techniques to estimate demand. Demand estimates for co-products are of value to both livestock producers, who obtain them for use in livestock rations, and processors, who must sell or otherwise dispose of them. Linear programming has long been used, first by researchers and later as a mainstream tool for nutritionists and producers, to formulate least-cost livestock rations. Here it is used as a normative technique to estimate step function demand...

Economic and climatic models for estimating coffee supply PAB
Moraes-Oliveira,Adriana Ferreira de; Aparecido,Lucas Eduardo de Oliveira; Figueira,Sérgio Rangel Fernandes.
Abstract: The objective of this work was to estimate the coffee supply by calibrating statistical models with economic and climatic variables for the main producing regions of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The regions were Batatais, Caconde, Cássia dos Coqueiros, Cristais Paulista, Espírito Santo do Pinhal, Marília, Mococa, and Osvaldo Cruz. Data on coffee supply, economic variables (rural credit, rural agricultural credit, and production value), and climatic variables (air temperature, rainfall, potential evapotranspiration, water deficit, and water surplus) for each region, during the period from 2000-2014, were used. The models were calibrated using multiple linear regression, and all possible combinations were tested for selecting the variables....

ENTROPY-BASED SEEMINGLY UNRELATED REGRESSION AgEcon
Harmon, Alice; Preckel, Paul V.; Eales, James S..
We adapt the classical SUR procedure to a minimum cross entropy approach to estimate linear systems of equations where the errors across equations are correlated. We conclude that our entropy-based approach may provide a reasonable substitute for SUR in cases where classical methods may not be applied due to shortages of data.

Estimating a Demand Function for Poultry Litter AgEcon
Carreira, Rita I.; Goodwin, Harold L., Jr..
Excess poultry litter could be a sustainable source of crop nutrients outside of nutrient-saturated regions if crop farmers are willing to utilize it. Using nearly 150 observations of actual poultry litter purchases in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri we estimate a demand function for poultry litter produced in northwest Arkansas.

Estimating A Farm Group Model and Input Allocations Using Accountancy Data AgEcon
Gocht, Alexander; Heckelei, Thomas.
This paper proposes and applies an innovative estimation approach for farm group programming models using Generalised Maximum Entropy. The proposed set-up simultaneously determines calibrating cost function parameters and input allocations to production activities. The methodology is applied to Belgium FADN data of arable farms for which available input allocations allow to validate the estimation approach. Results outperform separate estimates of input allocations previously applied in the literature and this finding is robust with respect to support point design.

EU policy reform simulation based on panel data estimation of on- and off-farm labour supply equations for Dutch dairy farmers AgEcon
Ooms, Daan L.; Hall, Alastair R..
This research focuses on the estimation of labour supply equations for Dutch dairy farmers that are suitable for policy simulations. Data availability leads to the fact that we can not estimate structural labour supply equations. We show how to derive reduced form equations suitable for policy simulations. In this research we use the panel data sample selection estimation approach of Kyriazidou (1997) and Wooldridge (1995) to estimate the off-farm labour supply equation. The two lead to different estimation results and different simulation results based on these.

Há Convergência do PIB per capita da agropecuária no Brasil entre 1980 a 2004? AgEcon
Spohr, Gabriela; Freitas, Clailton Ataides.
Este artigo tem como objetivo a realização dos testes de hipóteses de convergência absoluta, condicional e sigma convergência, das taxas de crescimento per capita da agropecuária dos Estados brasileiros, ao longo do período de 1980 a 2004. Esses modelos foram testados contemplando a estrutura de dados em painel. Os testes econométricos apontam um processo de convergência absoluta e quando condicionada ao capital humano a convergência torna-se mais acentuada. Contudo, as estimativas não mostram a existência de convergência sigma. This article has the objective to accomplisher by the hypothesis test convergence absolut, conditional and sigma convergence of GDP growth per capita in the farming field for the brasilian states in the period of 1980 to 2004....

Influence of Climate Variability on the Market Price of Water in the Gila-San Francisco Basin AgEcon
Pullen, Jennifer L.; Colby, Bonnie G..
Emerging water markets in the western United States have slowly developed as usage patterns have changed over time. This article develops an econometric model for the Gila-San Francisco Basin. Results indicate the market price of water has risen in response to drought and market conditions. Analysis shows a statistically significant relationship between the price and quantity of water transferred, year the transaction occurred, location where the transaction occurred, new use of the water right, and whether the transaction occurred during a drought year. Using the Standard Precipitation Index, we find negotiated prices are higher during dry years.

LEAST SQUARES AND ENTROPY AS PENALTY FUNCTIONS AgEcon
Preckel, Paul V..
Mathematical measures of entropy as defined by Shannon (1948) and Kullback and Leibler (1951) are currently in vogue in the field of econometrics, primarily due to the comprehensive work by Golan, Judge, and Miller (1996). In this paper, an alternative interpretation of the entropy measure as a penalty function over deviations is presented. Using this interpretation, a number of parallels are drawn with least squares estimators, and it is demonstrated that, with a minor modification of the traditional least squares estimator, both approaches may be applied to the general linear model. The advantages and disadvantages of each approach are discussed, and a philosophical approach to the selection of estimation technique is suggested.

Market Power in the Carbonated Soft Drink Industry AgEcon
Allender, William J.; Richards, Timothy J..
We investigate the strategic pricing for leading brands sold in the carbonated soft drink (CSD) market in the context of a flexible demand specification (i.e. random parameter nested logit) and a structural pricing equation. Our approach does not rely upon the often used ad hoc linear approximations to demand and profit-maximizing first-order conditions. We estimate the structural pricing equation using four different estimators (i.e. OLS, LIML, 2SLS, and GMM) and compare the implied deviation from Bertrand-Nash competition. Our results suggest that retailers, on average, price CSD brands below their cost, likely a result of the competitive retailing environment. We also find CSD wholesalers price their brands significantly more cooperatively than...

Private Decisions and Public Goods: Trade-Offs in the Conservation Programs in the New Farm Bill: Discussion AgEcon
Davis, Todd D..
The 2002 Farm Bill creates several opportunities for landowners to adopt management practices that protect and improve soil and water quality. Landowners considering enrollment in conservation programs must compare the monetary and nonmonetary costs and benefits from removing land from production agriculture. The overall purpose of this invited paper session was to improve the understanding of the factors affecting a landowner’s decision to enroll in conservation programs. Papers addressed the environmental benefits of conservation programs and compared the returns to enrolling in conservation programs to the returns from production agriculture.
