Abstract:

The development of the energy crisis has caused the use of depletable energy resources to be monitored quite closely in the United States. Within the agricultural sector, irrigation is a large user of energy, with the potential of using many times more energy than all other agricultural field operations. A...

Predicted economic effects of environmental quality control policies on linear firm models and an application to an irrigated farm model

Creator:

Clark, Richard T.

Abstract:

Linear economic models were utilized to predict effects of various environmental control policies on individual firms. Four different linear models were specified and in some instances relatively minor changes in specification were made which resulted in additional sub-models. Models varied as to numbers and types of fixed factors, variable cost...
