The Agricultural Minimum Wage and Wheat Production in Morocco (1971-89).
A positive relation between wheat production and the level of the agricultural minimum wage in Morocco is explained by applying a version of Stigler's (1946) monopsony model. The resulting econometric equation passes a large number of tests on Moroccan data over 1971-89. A model of the determination of the price of wheat is similarly developed and tested.
