Farm Diversification in Relation to Landscape Properties

Pfeifer, C.; Jongeneel, Roelof A.; Sonneveld, M.; … - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2008

location in farmers’ decision making to diversify is pointed out in literature but geographical information is generally … reduced to the location within a political delimitation unit the empirical work. Objective of this paper is two-fold. Firstly …, it addresses the role of location, in term of site specific natural conditions as well as neighbouring emerging dynamics …

Decoupled Payments and the Localization of Activities

Daniel, Karine; Kilkenny, Maureen - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2002

This article considers the impacts of (de)coupled farm sector support on the locations of farming and agro-industrial activity. An economic geography model is developed which has two types of regions, one with extensive agricultural production (rural), the other with intensive farming that is...

Development, Testing and Application of ACRE: An Agro-Economic Production Model on Regional Level

Henseler, Martin; Wirsig, Alexander; Krimly, Tatjana - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2005

ACRE is an Agro-eConomic model for agricultural pRoduction on rEgional level. Based on an extension of Positive Mathematical Programming (PMP) this model was developed as a decision tool for politics with respect to questions of global change scenarios. The validity of the theoretical approach...

Spatially explicit farming system modelling for an efficient agri-environmental policy design

Havlik, Petr; Bamiére, Laure; Jacquet, Florence; … - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2008

A mathematical programming model is developed and associated to a spatial pattern index (Ripley L-function) to analyse the optimal reserve design and implementation for the Little Bustard conservation in Plaine de Niort. The model structure corresponds to three spatial levels, fields, farm and...

THE CAP AND THE AUSTRIAN AGRICULTURAL SECTOR: IMPACTS OF POSSIBLE FUTURE MILK MARKET REGULATIONS

Tribl, Christoph - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2008

The European milk market is regulated by a quota system, which is limited by March 2015 for the time being. Using Austrian FADN data and applying a mathematical programming model, the impact of the CAP reform on Austrian farms with milk quota endowments as well as the impact of future milk...

A FARM LEVEL ANALYSIS OF THE RELATION BETWEEN CAP REFORMS AND LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL LEGISLATIONS: HOW AND IN WHICH EXTENT FLEMISH DAIRY FARMERS CAN FILL UP EXTRA MILK QUOTA?

Van der Straeten, Bart; Buysse, Jeroen; Nolte, Stephan; … - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2008

The agricultural policies shift gradually from EU-level organised market interventions to local organised environmental policies. This paper explores the growth possibilities of the Flemish dairy sector with the outlook of a quota abolishment as a case study of this policy shift. The dairy quota...

Impacts of Decoupling and Milk Quota Trade on the French and German Dairy Sectors

Huettel, Silke; Kleinhanss, Werner; Offermann, Frank - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2005

This paper analyses the impacts of the 2003 CAP reform and of milk quota trade at the national level. To this end, a mathematical programming model has been further developed for Germany and extended to other main milk-producing EU member states like France. Homogeneous farm groups are built on...

The application of the Water Framework Directive where farmers have alternative water sources

Dono, Gabriele; Severini, Simone - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2008

This paper evaluates the possible consequences of decreasing in the amount of water provided by the irrigation board to the farms, and increasing in the unitary water charges that the irrigation board applies to the farms. The study has been conducted in a Mediterranean region of southern Italy...

Mixed Crop Livestock Farming Incorporating Agroforestry Orchards Facing the New Cap

Ducros, Denis; Kephaliacos, Charilaos; Ridier, Aude - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2005

In the context of the new CAP, decoupling subsidies from production should incite farmers to reorganize their production systems, particularly through diversification opportunities. In this paper we focus our analysis on the conditions that could permit the development of extensive orchards by...

Modelling dairy farming and grazing in the Netherlands: scenarios and results

Helming, John; Reijs, Joan - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2014

In this paper we analyse the impact of different grazing policies on number of dairy cows in different grazing categories in 2025 by model simulation in the Netherlands. It can be generally concluded that in the absence of intervention there is a strong tendency towards a decline in grazing on...
