The objective of this paper is to identify the effect of livestock mandatory price reporting (MPR) on cattle cash prices. Using the lag augmented vector autoregression (LA-VAR) and the historical decomposition, we find that there exist a steady increase in cattle prices after MPR in 2001....

The relationship among rice yield and weather variables in Korea is explored using a stochastic production function. The results reveal that average rice yield is positively related to temperature and negatively associated with precipitation. Both temperature and precipitation, which are...

The effect of stochastic factors on soil carbon makes the quantity of carbon generated under a sequestration project uncertain. Hence, the quantity of sequestered carbon may need to be discounted to avoid liability from shortfalls. We present a potentially applicable uncertainty discount and...
