Agricultural Policy Uncertainty And Anticipatory Firm Level Adjustments

Author

Listed:
  • Lagerkvist, Carl Johan

Abstract

This paper investigates, through a dynamic stochastic adjustment model the extent to which an active agricultural policy can be the source of volatility in agricultural investment. It is shown that noise in formulation of agricultural policy has adverse effects even in cases where earlier results would take that investment is increased.
