| A market share analysis is undertaken to determine the contribution of the size of market effect, the distribution effect, and the competitive effect, the distribution effect, and the competitive effect to gains for the five major farm real estate lenders. Results are used as a basis for selection of variables for a demand-supply analysis. Separate demand and supply equations for new farm real estate debt over the 1951-81 period are estimated by three-stage least squares for three major lending groups. The results are used as a basis for simulation of Federal Land Bank supply response to selected policy changes. If current market conditions continue through 1990, FLB market share is expected to decrease 12.34 percent over the 1987-90 period. Higher FLB... |

| When there is a correspondence between two logical systems, duality can be used to derive a correspondence between results in one system and results in another system (Russell and Wilkinson, 1978). Under appropriate regularity conditions, dual functions such as normalized profit functions in production economics embody the same information on technology as the more familiar primal production functions. The technology can be examined directly using the primal approach or indirectly using the dual approach. It is often easier to estimate product supply and input demand relationships using a dual approach, because only endogenous variables appear on the left-hand side of equations and only exogenous variables appear on the right-hand side of equations... |

| Georgia agricultural production continues on an increasing trend and reached a historical high in 2006. Increases in output have been accompanied by relatively lower levels of input increases. The Tornqvist productivity index indicates an average annual productivity increase of 3.0% during 1960-2006. Productivity increases explain how the Georgia agricultural economy is expanding during a period when farm acreage and the number of farms are declining. An alternative to the Tornqvist productivity index is the Bennet-Bowley productivity indicator. A feature of the Bennet-Bowley indicator is that it is a component of normalized profit change. Profit change can be decomposed into a price change component, as well as a productivity component. Declining output... |

| The decision-making process by which academic departments within an experiment station allocate funds among commodities is examined. The decision to conduct research on some commodities and not on others introduces a problem of censored dependent variables. In order to overcome this problem, a simultaneous equations model with selectivity was used; it was applied to data from the Idaho Experiment Station. The results indicated a simultaneous relationship between research funding levels and expected benefits. Marginal products of one dollar in research investment were $53.80 for applied research, and $8.49 for maintenance research. |

| Research aimed at increasing agricultural productivity is provided by both private and public sectors. While the private sector's contribution to agricultural research is significant, provision of these activities solely by the private sector would not be optimal because of the existence of various types of market failure. Externalities or spillovers, which are commonly cited as a major form of market failure, clearly are evident with some types of agricultural research. Private firms would be able to capture only a portion of the benefits resulting from such research activities. It is well known that private markets may produce inefficient output levels in the face of these externalities. Government involvement in this area, therefore, may be necessary in... |
