“…The price dampening effect is relevant to the region with direct access to the world market and normally exports to the world market. In general, any export control (export quota, export tax or an export ban) can be depicted as an export tax (Alston and James, ), with an export ban considered as a prohibitive export tax, reducing the FOB price.…”

We build on the price transmission framework to identify domestic wheat price effects of wheat export controls. We explicitly take into account that a harvest failure causes domestic price effects. Moreover, the analysis at the regional level provides further evidence of the functioning of export controls in a large country. Results suggest a pronounced regional heterogeneity in the strength of domestic price effects of the 2010/11 export ban in Russia. The wheat price dampening effects amount to up to 67% and are strongest in the major wheat exporting region with direct access to the world market. This effect is transmitted to other regions by increased and reversed interregional trade flows. In contrast, we find that regional variation of export controls’ domestic price effects in Ukraine is rather small.

“…Elasticities can be obtained from past literature, "guestimated," or estimated (James and Alston, 2002). "Guestimated" elasticities often take the form of unit elasticities (Sumner, 2007;Harrington and Dubman, 2008).…”

Valuing the absence of feral swine in the United States: A partial equilibrium approach

et al. 2018

Feral swine (also called wild pigs; Sus scrofa Linnaeus) are known to cause damage to crops among other types of property damage. This research addresses the lack of economic welfare estimates of wild pig imposed crop damages in the literature by estimating the value of wild pig removal with respect to five crops in nine southern U.S. states. An equilibrium displacement model was used to assess the changes in price and quantity that would result from eliminating damage to corn, soybeans, wheat, rice, and peanuts in these nine states. Changes in price and quantity were used to calculate the changes in producer and consumer welfare in both the short-and longrun. The total producer and consumer surplus gains were found to be $142 million in the short-run and $89 million in the long-run.

Are uniform assessments for generic advertising optimal if products are differentiated?

An analytical framework where consumers display preferences for various qualities of an agricultural commodity is used to investigate the producer welfare effects of generic advertising assessments. Depending upon the degree of differentiation present in the final goods, some producers are shown to benefit more than others from the use of a uniform, per-unit assessment on all producers. This article delineates those cases where producer assessments should be equal and where assessments should be different to insure an equitable benefit.
