The feasibility of quadratic programming as a means of integrating agricultural pricequantity relationships and regional resource availability is demonstrated for a California test case. Estimates are developed for producer's and consumer's surplus, values of vegetables and field crop...

A multiyear discrete stochastic programming model with uncertain water supplies and inter-year crop dynamics is developed to determine: (i) whether a multiyear drought’s impact can be more than the sum of its parts, and (ii) whether optimal response to 1 year of drought can increase a...

The growth in conservation programs has created a need for modeling frameworks capable of measuring microlevel behavioral responses and macrolevel landscape changes. This paper presents an empirical model that predicts farmers' production practices and the resulting levels of agricultural...
