This study implements an updated set of projections for Philippine agriculture, which addresses the following key issues: (1) the proper modeling of land allocation to better analyze the implications of land scarcity under climate change; (2) the impact of climate change, agricultural...

The objective of this paper is to estimate transformation and Armington substitution elasticities for South African trade. We use linear methods to estimate elasticities without growth factors. We then employ a non-linear system of equations to estimate Armington import elasticities and related...

In this paper we introduce a piecewise parametric production model that may be used as a reference technology for efficiency gauging. We show that other piecewise reference technologies used in efficiency measuring are obtained as special cases of our model.
