| Game theory offers an alternative approach to standard means of resource assessment which can be of value in the definition and assessment of policy options for competing parties. Using a Nash co-operative game it has been possible in this paper to show the significance of fishing strategies for southern bluefin tuna which take into account the age distribution of the catch. Assuming Japan and Australia act according to a cooperative game then the optimal fishing strategy was found to involve Australia avoiding the fishing of the very young cohorts and Japan taking a moderate catch in subsequent older age classes but not the oldest of the age classes. Sub-optimal strategies were also presented and evaluated along with an indication of the level of biomass... |

| Land fragmentation, in which a single farm household operates more than one separate piece of land, is significant issue in Vietnamese agriculture, especially in the North. For the whole country, there are about 75 million plots of land, an average of 7-8 plots per farm household. Such fragmentation can be seen to have negative and positive benefits for farm households and the community generally. The negative impacts can be reduced mechanisation, higher cost, loss of land due to boundaries, increased negative externalities, and more limited application of new technologies. On the other hand, land fragmentation may have some benefits to farmers such as spreading output risk, seasonal labour use, and crop diversification. Comparative static analysis and... |

| The integration of detailed farm supply models with the basic spatial equilibrium model, is outlined. The direct linking of farm linear programming models with the spatial equilibrium model is achieved so that both prices and quantities are endogenous. Both the farm model and the spatial equilibrium model must be specified in primal-dual form to make the linkages. Limited details of the use of such a model in a study of a segment of the grain handling system in New South Wales are presented along with conclusions relating to the pricing of grain handling services. |

| Over the last decade the Vietnamese government has instigated land reforms that recognise the household as the basic unit of production and allocate land use rights to households. Under the 1993 Land Law these rights can be transferred, exchanged, leased, inherited, and mortgaged. This Land Law provided the foundation for the development of a market for land use rights. During 2001, 400 farm households were surveyed in four provinces in Vietnam. Along with production and consumption data, evidence was sought of land accumulation and consolidation, land use changes, and attitudes to land reform issues. Analysis of the data shows that there is an active market for land use rights, but the level of activity varies considerably between provinces. Some... |

| Annual time series data for the period 1950-51 through 1975-76 are used to estimate the price elasticity of aggregate Australian agricultural supply using two methods. The short-run elasticity is estimated to be highly inelastic but it has been increasing through time. The preferred estimate of the long-run elasticity is in the relatively inelastic range and it has also been increasing through time. Some implications of these results for intersectoral resource flows and compensatory assistance, the cost-price squeeze, the effects of the mineral boom and monetary policy are discussed. |

| The dual class shareholding company has been adopted as a way of managing the single desk operating system for wheat in Australia. Using B Class ASX listed shares to fund the operation of the company, and the use of A Class grower held shares to control the direction of the company, the objectives of the current arrangements are to maximise net pool returns to growers. Using principal-agent theory, the current marketing arrangements are examined. Considering both groups of shareholders as principals of one agent, this paper has focused on examining the contracts between the agent and each principal, and the incentives provided by these contracts to the agent to act in the interests of each of the shareholder groups. The reward to the agent from each... |

| In this paper a model is developed which brings together elements of the household models, spatial trading systems and demand systems with elements of production and income risk. Some of the implications of the design are analysed. The design is focussed on the problem faced by Vietnamese farm households as they face land use policy changes which will allow for the possibility of land consolidation, reduced input subsidies and increased market risk. |

| A multiproduct spatial equilibrium model of world steel trade is presented in this paper. The model is used to analyse the impacts of the safeguard trade barriers brought about by the USA in order to protect their domestic industry from the so-called unfair competition. Emphasis is placed on the likely effect on the Australian industry and possible policy responses available to the industry. A case study is made of Australia’s three largest export products; namely, slab, hot-rolled and cold-rolled steel, which share some substitutability in supply and demand because of the nature of the industry. As a result of the safeguard barriers to steel trade, world steel prices fell and trade shifted away from the USA to other importing regions. |

| Co-operation in research is a complex question which would seem to depend to a large extent on a number of necessary and sufficient conditions for success. In this note an attempt is made to define some of these conditions and then reflect on a few possibilities for co-operation between institutions, in particular between government departments and universities. First, however, it is necessary to provide a brief discussion of research objectives. |

| Standard spatial equilibrium activity analysis models, as developed by Takayama and Judge (1971), are based on linear supply and demand functions and fixed input-output coefficients. Such models are suitable for multiple market level trading systems where the fixed input-output coefficients are appropriate. A primal-dual price form of these models is developed in which the assumption of constant per unit costs of transformation is relaxed. In the case when the average cost curves of transformation are quadratic in nature the problem becomes one that will be termed cubic programming (that is, a cubic objective function and linear and/or quadratic constraints) which is solved in a concave region of the solution space. In the paper, the formulation of a... |

| The nature of the competition policy public benefit tests, applied to various agricultural industries, is reviewed. Then, various analytical techniques that have been applied to the assessment of the public benefit test are examined. These techniques include analysis of price premiums, consideration of pooling and averaging, pricing to market tests, what-if scenarios, market power analysis, and price discriminating monopolist models. Some of the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches are summarised. Generally, all of these approaches have various strengths and a number of weaknesses so that the case for the assessment of costs and benefits must substantially depend on the logic of the effects of the regulation rather than the results of any... |

| The use of protected areas as a fishery management tool has been suggested as a hedge against management failures and variation in harvests. A stochastic bioeconomic model of a two-species fishery will be used to test the performance of protected areas as a management tool in a fishery with heterogenous environments. Protected areas are analysed under density-dependent and sink-source dispersal relationships between environments within the fishery. Differing levels of management control over fishery resource extraction are analysed. The model is applied to Manning Bioregion in NSW. The focus of the study is placed on the biological and institutional characteristics that yield benefits to the fishery. |
