Estimation of constrained optimisation models for agricultural supply analysis based on generalised maximum entropy

[PDF] from washington.edu
T Heckelei… - European review of agricultural economics, 2003 - Oxford Univ Press
Abstract The paper introduces a general methodological approach for the estimation of
constrained optimisation models in agricultural supply analysis. It is based on optimality
conditions of the desired programming model and shows a conceptual advantage ...

Does extending daylight saving time save energy? Evidence from an Australian experiment

[PDF] from escholarship.org
R Kellogg… - IZA Discussion Paper No. 2704, 2007 - papers.ssrn.com
Abstract: Several countries are considering extending Daylight Saving Time (DST) in order
to conserve energy, and the US will extend DST by one month beginning in 2007. However,
projections that these extensions will reduce electricity consumption rely on extrapolations ...

[PDF] Drought and Retribution: Evidence from a large scale Rainfall-Indexed Insurance Program in Mexico

[PDF] from berkeley.edu
A Fuchs… - 2010 - ecnr.berkeley.edu
Abstract Weather shocks are a major source of income fluctuation and most of the world's
poor lack insurance coverage against them. In addition, the absence of formal insurance
contributes to poverty traps as investment decisions are conflicted with risk management ...

[PDF] Imposing monotonicity and curvature on flexible functional forms

[PDF] from umn.edu
H Wolff, T Heckelei… - … Paper prepared for …, 2004 - ageconsearch.umn.edu
Imposing curvature and monotonocity restrictions always has been a vexing problem for
applied economists. We present an estimation methodology for more efficiently estimating
flexible functional forms subject to “regional”, as opposed to “local” or “global”, regularity ...
