LUMINATE: linking agricultural land use, local water quality and Gulf of Mexico hypoxia (2014)

Beschreibung: In this paper, we discuss the importance of developing integrated assessment models to support the design and implementation of policies to address water quality problems associated with agricultural pollution. We describe a new modelling system, LUMINATE, which links land use decisions made at the field scale in the Upper Mississippi, Ohio and Tennessee Basins through both environmental and hydrological components to downstream water quality effects and hypoxia in the Gulf of Mexico. This modelling system can be used to analyse detailed policy scenarios identifying the costs of the policies and their resulting benefits for improved local and regional water quality. We demonstrate the model's capabilities with a simple scenario where cover crops are incentivised with green payments over a large expanse of the watershed.

Beschreibung: Flexibility can be considered a crucial factor of competitive advantage, especially under conditions of dynamically changing environments. Based on the classical microeconomic definition, flexibility is characterised as a firm's ability to change output by sustaining its average costs. Using some recent concepts developed in production economics, this article proposes a primal flexibility measure for multi-product firms. When decomposed, this measure offers useful insights into possible sources of flexibility, especially by investigating the role of both scale and scope economies. This approach provides the theoretical basis for our investigation into the magnitude and sources of flexibility in the Polish agricultural sector.

Beschreibung: In this paper, after a review of the evolution of the literature on climate change economics in agriculture, I present some evidence of the impact of different moments of the distribution of rainfall on farmers risk aversion. It is found that while more rainfall is negatively associated with the probability of observing risk aversion, rainfall variability is positively correlated. This result highlights an important behavioural dimension of climatic factors.

'Fair trade' coffee and the mitigation of local oligopsony power (2014)

Beschreibung: In recent years, there has been considerable growth in ‘fair trade’ markets for several commodities, most notably coffee. We argue that coffee is grown under conditions that might well subject growers to the market power of downstream intermediaries (processors). Using an approach designed to evaluate the effects of state trading enterprises on trade and welfare, we develop an oligopsony model of intermediaries. In this model, fair-trade processors optimise a welfare function that includes the producer surplus of coffee growers. This concern for growers' welfare among some processing firms helps to alleviate the market power distortion. We calibrate the model to price data reported by a fair-trade organisation and consider the counterfactual removal of fair-trade behaviour by processors. As expected, the income of coffee growers (in aggregate) is reduced, though the effects are quite small.

Econometric analysis of social interactions in the production decisions of private forest owners (2014)

Beschreibung: This article analyses private forest owners' timber supply, taking individual and regional determinants into account, and investigates whether the drivers of forest owners' behaviour differ within and between these different levels, due to peer effects. From a unique database of French private forest owners from a survey carried out in 1999, harvest decision and harvesting intensity are simultaneously estimated by a multilevel selection model. It allows us to identify social interactions: endogenous, contextual and correlated effects. Results show that forest owners with the same characteristics may behave differently, depending on the dynamism of the timber sector and the forest environment.

Climate change and agricultural productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa: a spatial sample selection model (2014)

Beschreibung: Using spatially explicit data, we estimate a cereal yield response function using a recently developed estimator for spatial error models when endogenous sample selection is of concern. Our results suggest that yields across Sub-Saharan Africa will decline with projected climatic changes, and that failing to control for sample selection and spatially correlated errors leads to biased estimates of some climate impacts. We also find evidence that the estimated elasticities are essentially no different from those of simpler models ignoring those features in the data. Simulation experiments indicate the extent to which improvements in irrigation can ameliorate the effects of climate change.

Beschreibung: The level of submissions to the ERAE remains very healthy. At the same time the speed of response by the editors is now on average significantly less than three months. With regard to citation impact the ERAE continues to perform well with a score of 1.544 recorded in 2015 and the indication is that 2016 will show further improvement. Finally, the editorial process as well as the relationship with Oxford University Press continues to be very efficient which bodes well for the future of the ERAE.

Making it personal: breach and private ordering in a contract farming experiment (2017)

Beschreibung: In a laboratory experiment, we study behaviour in a contract farming game without third-party enforcement but with an external spot market as outside option. We examine if and how relational contracts and personal communication support private-order enforcement. We find mixed evidence for our private ordering hypothesis. While relational contracting significantly reduces contract breach in general, the possibility for ‘direct bargaining communication’ has no additional positive effect. Both parties benefit from a well-functioning relation in the long run, yet most subjects are not willing to sacrifice short-term gains. If reputational mechanisms are absent, premiums are offered (but not paid).
