We investigate climate change impacts on productivity and production risk on U. S. Pacific Northwest winter wheat farms. Using farm-level data from the Census of Agriculture, we use a partial-moment-based approach to estimate climate and irrigation influences on winter wheat yield and farm net...

This paper develops the conceptual and empirical basis for a class of empirical economic production models that can be linked to site-specific bio-physical models for use in integrated assessment research. Site-specific data are used to estimate econometric production models, and these data and...

We argue that to support agriculture–environmental policy decision making, stakeholdersneed ‘quantitative back-of-the-envelope’ analysis that is timely and sufficientlyaccurate to make informed decisions. We apply this concept to the analysis of the supplyof ecosystem services from...

This study examined possible economic impacts on Northern Plains grain producers of policies that could be undertaken by the United States to comply with the Kyoto Protocol.The paper begins with a discussion of the potential effects of the Kyoto Protocol on prices of energy and inputs used in...

Antle and Valdivia (2006, Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics 50, 1–15) proposed a minimum-data (MD) approach to simulate ecosystem service supply curves that can be implemented using readily available secondary data and validated the approach in a case study of soil...

This book identifies the long-run trends in global agricultural production, prices, and trade and projects the likely trends of the future.
