This study evaluates spatial variation in the relationship between agricultural output and input use across Turkey. The potential impact of the national agricultural policy reform introduced in 2001 on the spatial variation in agricultural output elasticities across the country was explored. By...

A copula approach to censored system estimation is proposed. The quasi-maximum likelihood estimator departs from the multivariate normal error distribution predominantly used in existing estimators and resolves the computational difficulty with multiple probability integrals in high-dimensional...

We extend the Tobit (censored) linear equation system procedure to utility-theoretic demand functions, along with a mapping mechanism to impose the adding-up restriction implied by consumer utility maximization theory—a theoretical restriction very often ignored in previous empirical studies...
