This paper presents a method for determining the subsidy required to motivate farmers to participate in timber afforestation programs designed to maximize social well-being. The method incorporates a carbon sequestration benefit function into the land expected value model in order to quantify...

The present study applies a bootstrapped data envelopment analysis (DEA) procedure to compute bias-corrected measures of agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) change and its components (technical change and technical efficiency change) using a panel data of 19 regions of Bangladesh...

Using panel data of 83 counties observed from 2000 to 2015, the marginal abatement cost (MAC) of soil erosion is accurately evaluated by directional distance function with convex expectile regression. Besides, we further explore how the external variables affect shadow prices and the choice of...
