How adoption rates, timing, and ceilings affect the value of ENSO-based climate forecasts.
Rubas, Debra J.; Mjelde, James W.; Love, H. Alan; … - 2008
An international wheat trade model incorporating climate variability is used to simulate different scenarios when wheat producers in the USA, Canada, and Australia adopt El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-based climate forecasts for use in production decisions. Adoption timing and rates are...
