| Incidence of animal diseases, such as Hog Cholera and Pasteurella, was found in our field survey of 100 pig farmers in T.T.Hue province in Vietnam Thirty five (36%) of surveyed farmers are in poverty according to the 2005 poverty standard in Vietnam. Low income farmer has a large income share from pig production. We suggest that the increase of pig deaths in low income farms will raise the risk to fall into poverty. Improvement of animal health service, especially for low income farmers, will be important for poverty reduction in rural area in Vietnam. Vietnamese pork distribution is in a state of so-called information asymmetry. In order to solve the problem of information asymmetry, it is necessary to fulfill the requirements of incentive compatibility.... |

| This paper considers the role of incentive payment programs in eliciting, estimating, and predicting landowners' conservation enrollments. Using both program participation and the amount of land enrolled, we develop two econometric approaches for predicting enrollments. The first is a multivariate censored regression model that handles zero enrollments and heterogeneity in the opportunity cost of enrollments by combining an inverse hyperbolic sine transformation of enrollments with alternative-specific correlation and random parameters. The second is a beta-binomial model, which recognizes that in practice elicited enrollments are essentially integer valued. We apply these approaches to Finland, where the protection of private nonindustrial forests is an... |
