A generalization of Takayama and Judge's spatial equilibrium model that allows for any degree of market structure is presented. The model is applied to the Japanese dairy industry to examine interregional milk movements generated under alternative assumed degrees of market competition. The...

Traditional spatial equilibrium models have assumed that markets are either perfectly competitive or monopolistic. In this paper, a generalized spatial equilibrium model is developed which allows for any degree of market conduct from perfect competition to monopoly. The model incorporates a...

In this article, a spatial equilibrium model that allows for the inclusion of any degree of market structure from perfect competition to monopoly is developed and applied to the U.S. dairy industry. This model is used to simulate possible Class I premiums, which could be negotiated by U.S. dairy...

ABSTRACT We examined the impacts of China's implementation of a sliding scale duty (SSD) system on the world cotton market. The analysis was based on a spatial equilibrium model of major importing and exporting regions that incorporates key features of China's SSD. The model solutions suggest...

This study analyzes the impacts of climate change on maize yields using an econometric model that incorporates climate, economic, and technology variables. The major finding is climate change will not universally cause negative impacts of maize yields in the United States and China. The results...

The objective of this paper is to present a comprehensive, multi-regional trade model which includes all types of state trading enterprises (STEs) as well as other domestic and trade policies. The model is applied to measure the effects of STEs on the world wheat sector, where exports and...
