The aim of this paper is to estimate the perennial crop potential regarding new uses like second generation biofuels. We focus on the introduction of a perennial yearly harvested crop, namely the miscanthus, in European agricultural short term supply model - AROPAj. Inserting this crop in the...

This paper assesses the cost-effectiveness of a mixed policy in attempts to curb three nitrogen pollutants: NO3, N20 and NH3. The policy under study combines an N-tax on nitrogen input and incentives promoting perennial crops assumed to require low input. We show that opting for a perennial crop...

This paper is devoted to a quantitative analysis of the introduction of perennial crop in a short-term supply model. The analysis provides assessment of impacts regarding land use and N-input demand. We show that a variation in yield or the subsidy amount of miscanthus leads to a significant...

This paper is devoted to assessment of policy mix impacts regarding nitrogen pollutants. The analysed policy combines a tax on the nitrogen input and incentives promoting perennial crops assumed to be low input ones. We show that perennial crop subsidy increases significantly the tax efficiency,...
