Global climate change and the effect of conservation practices in US agriculture
Energy and the adoption of conservation tillage in the United States
The impact of energy on the adoption of conservation tillage is of special importance in addressing concerns about the effect of agricultural production on the environment in the United States. It is the subject of this paper. After establishing that a relationship exists between the price of energy and the adoption of conservation tillage via cointegration techniques, the relationship is quantified. It is shown that while the real price of crude…
The impact of public policy on conservation tillage use in U.S. agriculture
A number of policy tools are used to reduce soil erosion from agricultural lands in the United States, including education and technical assistance, financial assistance, land retirement, and conservation compliance requirements. Education and technical assistance by public and private sources can be effective in promoting the adoption of conservation tillage by farmers for whom that practice will be profitable. Financial incentives may be necess…
Government policy and the development and use of biopesticides
Link between conservation tillage and factor inputs
One important issue concerning the impact of agricultural production on the environment involves the environmental consequences of conservation tillage practices. While it is generally recognized that water runoff and soil erosion will decline as no tillage and mulch tillage systems are used more extensively on cropland, what will happen to pesticide and fertilizer use remains uncertain. To gain some insight into this, the conservation tillage ad…
A note on quality differences and United States/Canadian wheat trade
An Assessment of the Impact of an Increase in the Tobacco Excise Tax on the U.S. Economy
The analysis in this study examines the effects on the U.S. economy of a proposed $1 per pack equivalent increase in the tobacco products excise tax as a means to partially finance a program of health care reform. The analytical approach used in this study consisted of a general equilibrium model composed of 14 producing sectors, 14 consuming sectors, and six household categories classified by income and a government. Data suggest that as a resul…
Assessing the impact of the sugar programme on the US economy
The integration of the market for soybeans and soybean products
An assessment of alternative agricultural policies to reduce nitrogen fertilizer use
Geographic Markets, Causality and Railroad Deregulation
This paper presents an approach to defining a market using the notion of instantaneous causality. The market for which the approach is empirically implemented is the flour market in the United States over the period January 1979 through October 1982. One anomaly over this period was the deregulation of railroad rates in October 1980. The empirical results based on three spatially diffuse cities suggest that the market is national in scope and tha…
Testing for the Stability of Investment Function
The regional demand for fossil fuels by electric utilities
Uri N. D. (1979) The regional demand for fossil fuels by electric utilities, Reg. Studies 13, 191–198. There exists the possibility of interfuel substitution in the generation of electrical energy. The responsiveness of the demand for various fossil fuels by electric utilities given this economic fact is investigated. Using aggregate time series data for ten Federal Energy Administration regions, the results indicate that the responsiveness of th…
