Modeling The United States Farmland Market: A Test Of The Rational Expectations Hypothesis

Author

Listed:
  • Moore, Kevin C.

Abstract

A demand and supply model of the U.S. farmland market is constructed. Naive, adaptive, and rational expectations are used to represent market participants capital gains expectations. Rational expectations appear invalid in the land market while naive expectations provide good results. Use of supply and demand schedules also appears appropriate.
