Book Synopsis Agricultural Price Policy by : Isabelle Tsakok
Download or read book Agricultural Price Policy written by Isabelle Tsakok and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many governments of developing countries burdened with international debt are under ever-increasing pressure to use their scarce economic resources wisely. Faced with slow progress in alleviating poverty and stimulating economic growth, they especially need to end wasteful subsidies and revise inefficient tax policies. This book will help staff members of government planning agencies and ministries of finance and agriculture to analyze the effects of government policies on the production, consumption, and export of agricultural commodities. The analytical techniques that Isabelle Tsakok demonstrates in this book are the essential first step in reforming agricultural price policy to bring about a more efficient allocation of resources. After mastering the techniques of single-market, partial-equilibrium analysis, which are the book's focus, policy analysts can use the techniques to identify when more sophisticated methods, such as multi-market analysis and computable general-equilibrium models, are needed to determine what agricultural price policies are "right." Tsakok begins with graphical analysis and data requirements in order to build intuitive understanding, and progresses through steadily more complex techniques, demonstrating—step by step—the calculation of domestic resource costs, effective rates of protection, and related coefficients of protection. Providing a wide range of numerical real-world examples to illustrate the practical application of the partial-equilibrium framework, Agricultural Price Policy is an invaluable reference manual and teaching tool.

Book Synopsis International model for policy analysis of agricultural commodities and trade-standard IFPRI multimarket model (IMPACT-SIMM): Technical description for version 1 by : Robinson, Sherman
Download or read book International model for policy analysis of agricultural commodities and trade-standard IFPRI multimarket model (IMPACT-SIMM): Technical description for version 1 written by Robinson, Sherman and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2021-12-31 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Food Policy Research Institute’s International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT) supports analysis of long-term challenges and opportunities for food, agriculture, and natural resources at global and regional scales. IMPACT is continually being updated and improved to better inform the choices that decisionmakers face today. This document describes a new country-level version of the model. IMPACT-SIMM (International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade–Standard IFPRI Multimarket Model) is a partial equilibrium, multi-market, simulation model of the production, supply, and demand of agricultural commodities within a country or group of countries. It simulates the operation of agricultural markets, solving for equilibrium prices within a country and, in multi-country mode, global markets. It is designed to be a “portable” and potentially open-source version of the IFPRI (International Food Policy Research Institute) IMPACT3 model documented in Robinson et al. (2015). IMPACT-SIMM shares model specification, equations, and computer code with IMPACT3, but is designed to be more flexible in application. It allows users to specify a standard multi-market model at any level of aggregation by commodities and countries by changing data inputs, without any change in model code. This model system supports longer-term scenario analysis to provide researchers and policymakers with a flexible tool to assess and compare the potential effects of changes in biophysical systems, socioeconomic trends, technologies, and policies at the level of individual countries or groups of countries.

Book Synopsis The Common Agricultural Policy SIMulation (CAPSIM) Model by : Robert M'barek
Download or read book The Common Agricultural Policy SIMulation (CAPSIM) Model written by Robert M'barek and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Common Agricultural Policy SIMulation (CAPSIM) model is one of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (JRC-IPTS) in-house models used for impact analysis of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). It is a calibrated, comparative static, partial equilibrium model which was developed in the early 1980s by the European Centre for Agricultural, Regional and Environmental Policy Research and the University of Bonn on behalf of the Directorate General Eurostat (DG ESTAT) for agricultural policy analysis. In 2006, CAPSIM was transferred from DG ESTAT to JRC-IPTS. The CAPSIM model has a disaggregated coverage of items and individual European Union Member States and Candidate Countries. The present JRC-IPTS Technical Report describes the model structure of CAPSIM in its version from 2005 with several applications. The first part of the report focuses on explaining the model specification, particularly: supply and demand side, processing, labour, different policy regimes as applied in the CAP, trade regimes and welfare calculations. The second part describes the CAPSIM programme code in order to provide a guided tour through the technical aspects of the model for potential users.
Book Synopsis A Partial Equilibrium Model of the Malawi Maize Commodity Market by : Mariam A. T. J. Mapila
Download or read book A Partial Equilibrium Model of the Malawi Maize Commodity Market written by Mariam A. T. J. Mapila and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2013-03-29 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a model of the Malawi maize commodity market that is developed for use as a policy analysis tool. The model captures national and local maize market dynamics and the linkages existing within the maize market in the country. This research has been undertaken in order to provide policy makers with a robust tool which can be used to simulate the impact of policy changes on markets and households. Such a tool ensures the availability of evidence for informing food and agricultural policies. The model is a multiequation partial equilibrium model of the national maize market in Malawi. It is developed and linked in a top-down unidirectional manner to the local maize economy via a price linkage equation. A nonbehavioral arithmetic microaccounting approach is used to estimate rural household incomes that are linked to the local economy, through which macroeconomic-level maize price changes transmit. The model can be used as a tool for analyzing the impacts of macroeconomic and agricultural policy changes on the maize industry as well as on rural households that rely on maize. The novelty of the model is that it takes into account the interrelationships between farm/household, local-economy, and national maize market prices, as well as economic theory and existing empirical evidence, to build a framework that is capable of linking to the macroeconomy rural subsistence households that are traditionally deemed to have few or no backward and forward linkages.
Book Synopsis Understanding Risks and Uncertainties in Energy and Climate Policy by : Haris Doukas
Download or read book Understanding Risks and Uncertainties in Energy and Climate Policy written by Haris Doukas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-10 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book analyzes and seeks to consolidate the use of robust quantitative tools and qualitative methods for the design and assessment of energy and climate policies. In particular, it examines energy and climate policy performance and associated risks, as well as public acceptance and portfolio analysis in climate policy, and presents methods for evaluating the costs and benefits of flexible policy implementation as well as new framings for business and market actors. In turn, it discusses the development of alternative policy pathways and the identification of optimal switching points, drawing on concrete examples to do so. Lastly, it discusses climate change mitigation policies’ implications for the agricultural, food, building, transportation, service and manufacturing sectors.
Book Synopsis General Equilibrium Impacts in Imperfect Agricultural Markets by : Anubhab Gupta

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My dissertation evaluates the general equilibrium effects of agricultural market structures by examining how market power and capacity constraints of downstream intermediaries shape the economy-wide impacts of agricultural program interventions. I construct an integrated general equilibrium model of agricultural market structure and calibrate the model using original household-level survey- and industry-data from the Tanzanian cotton industry to estimate the direct and spillover effects of technological improvements in cotton production when the downstream cotton ginners have market power in purchasing cotton from farmers. Chapter 2 of my dissertation reviews the three strands of economic literature into which this work fits and contributes: demand-side constraints in agricultural markets, in particular, limited capacities and imperfect competition among downstream intermediaries, welfare distribution of downstream market structure in agriculture, and general equilibrium effects of policy interventions in local economies. In Chapter 3, I develop the integrated general equilibrium model of market structure by explicitly allowing for intermediary market power and their capacity constraints, and capturing local-economy general equilibrium effects. Chapter 4 presents the original household-level data from the Western Cotton Growing Area of Tanzanian and the ginners’ industry-level data, and explores the existing coalitions of cotton ginners, their contractual agreements with cotton farmers, spatial and temporal dimensions of cotton purchase, and the costs of producing lint. In Chapter 5, I discuss the empirical strategy of econometric estimations of inputs needed to parameterize the integrated model. Using ginners’ cost data on processing inputs, I non-parametrically estimate their market power to be 0.28 in cotton purchase, which is akin to a scenario as if the ginners are playing a three-four firm Cournot game. Chapter 6 presents the direct and indirect (spillover) effects of ginners’ market power, and estimates the income and production impacts of higher cotton productivity experiment with imperfectly competitive ginners and compares that to the synthetic case of perfect competition. I find that the total real income of the Western Cotton Growing Area reduces by 3.1 percent due to ginners’ market power with heterogeneous welfare impacts for the different cotton and non-cotton producing households. The income (inflation-adjusted) gains in the entire local economy are reduced from 5.9 to 2.4 percent due to ginners’ market power upon the 25 percent cotton productivity increase. The direct income increases of technology improvement for the cotton producers are reduced by 2.2 to 5.6 percentage points, and the indirect income increases for the non-cotton producing households are reduced by 0.5 to 0.8 percentage points. The methodology presented in my dissertation applies to both developed and developing country agricultural settings. The findings from this dissertation have important implications for agricultural program evaluations to consider the negative effects of market power and to assess the impacts through a local economy angle. Evaluations based on a partial equilibrium analysis typically overlook the agricultural spillovers. I also highlight the importance of intermediary capacities in agriculture in determining the welfare of upstream farmers and their local economy. When intermediaries operate at their maximum processing capacities, direct welfare gains and income spillovers of technological improvements in agricultural production are unambiguously negative for the farmers, and all the benefits of innovation are transmitted to the intermediaries. A realistic analysis of policies aimed at raising welfare in rural economies must consider effects of market power and downstream capacity constraints. Taking these effects into account opens up new policy considerations and opportunities, including the benefits of laws limiting or proscribing anticompetitive behavior to prevent formation of mergers and coalitions downstream from farms. Introducing interventions to ensure a more elastic demand for farm products when intermediaries are capacity constrained could complement other welfare-enhancing programs that governments undertake in potent and dynamic – yet easily overlooked – ways.
