MMRF is a dynamic CGE model of Australia s six State and two Territory economies. MMRF is used extensively in contract research. Several features of MMRF make it an ideal tool for policy analysis, including: dynamics, a highly disaggregated regional and sectoral database, a national labour...

We describe the progress of computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling software since the 1980s and contrast the main systems used today: GAMS, MPSGE, and GEMPACK. The development of these general-purpose modeling systems has underpinned rapid growth in the use of CGE models and allowed...

In this paper we analyze the Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC) effects of ethanol production expansion in Brazil through the use of an inter-regional, bottom-up, dynamic general equilibrium model calibrated with the 2005 Brazilian I-O table. A new methodology to deal with ILUC effects is...

ORANI is a detailed general equilibrium model of the Australian economy. It has been applied many times by economists in universities, government departments and business in analyses of the effects on industries, occupational groups and regions of changes in policy variables (e.g., taxes and...

TERM (The Enormous Regional Model) provides a strategy for creating a "bottom-up" multi-regional CGE model which treats each region of a single country as a separate economy. This makes it a useful tool for examining the regional impacts of shocks that may be region-specific. TERM is designed to...

On accession to the EU, Poland, one of the most agricultural countries in the region, became eligible for the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), which it perceived as a chance to develop its rural economy. However, in constructing its 2007-2013 Rural Development Programme, Poland directed the...
