Understanding how a changing climate alters regional comparative advantage is crucial for
evaluating the economic impacts of climate change. I exploit temporal variation in decades …

The extent to which crop insurance programs have resulted in additional land being brought
into production has been a topic of considerable debate. We consider multiequation …

Area base models are being used in resource assessments to project the availability of farm
and forest land. In this paper we introduce a heterogenous land area base model and apply …

Previous empirical research on crop supply response has given insufficient attention to the
fundamentally different nature of supply response under farm programs versus competitive …

We conduct an econometric analysis of the factors influencing US crop yields and acres
using US county level data from 1977 to 2007 and evaluate the likely effects of future climate …

An integrated investigation of futures price, cash price, and government programs is
presented in the context of an econometric model of acreage supply response for US corn …

Ricardian and von Thünen land rent models are combined into a single land use share
model including farm, forest, and urban land uses. The land share model is applied to the …

We estimate US corn and soybean supply responses by exploiting the large exogenous
price variations associated with implementation of the Renewable Fuel Standard. We focus …

This article demonstrates that both crop area and output elasticities can be calculated from a
profit function. A Chambers/Just profit function (which includes land allocations as quasi …

Do direct payments alter operators' acreage decisions? The authors use an event study with
individual‐level data in a panel‐data setting to examine how an exogenous change in direct …
