Abstract

This paper is a methodological review focusing on the major advances in modelling issues in agricultural production economics that have been made over recent decades. Issues include the role of markets and international trade, structural and dynamic aspects of production, environmental impacts of production decisions and risk issues. We describe the main scientific developments and their implications for policy design and evaluation for each topic. We also provide a short conclusion on emerging issues, data and modelling requirements and perspectives for future research.
