In this paper we propose a game-theoretic model of a rank-order tournament with private information and characterize … its equilibrium solution. The model captures many important features of the production contracts once observed in the … growers' equilibrium effort depends on three factors: the spread in piece rates between the performance brackets, the number …

Changes in production conditions associated with biological invasions can be complex. As a result, modeling invasive … spatial relationships among growers. In order to calculate optimal management decisions, an accurate bioeconomic model of the … feedback between grower decisions and the new biological interactions created by an invasive species population is needed.
