This study conducts an investigation on the application of classical unit-root tests using parametric tests (the augmented Dickey-Fuller, 1979 – ADF), and nonparametric tests (Phillips and Perron, 1988—PP) to corn and soybean yields in the Delta states using county-level data from 1961 to...

We propose a flexible nonparametric density estimator for panel data. One possible areas of application is estimation of crop yield distributions whose data tend to be short panels from many geographical units. Taking into account the panel structure of the data can likely improve the efficiency...
