A Dynamic Regional Model of Irrigated Perennial Production
Franklin, Bradley; Knapp, Keith C.; Schwabe, Kurt A. - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2012
Perennial crop production is inherently dynamic due to several salient physical characteristics including an establishment period of several years with low or no yields, long lives in commercial production (40 years or more), and path-dependence of yields on input use and other exogenous...
