Download or read book Bio Economic Models applied to Agricultural Systems written by Guillermo Flichman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-15 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has the purpose of providing the "state of the arts" concerning bio-economic modelling dealing with agricultural systems. In most cases, the contributions use a methodology combining the use of biophysical and economic models, in all cases, an engineering production function approach is totally or partially applied. This practice is being developed in the last years as a response to concrete policy matters: agricultural policies are increasingly combined with environmental and natural resources policies, and this reality involves the need of an integrated assessment, that current economic models are not able to provide.

Download or read book Rainfed Farming Systems written by Philip Tow and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 1324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While a good grasp of the many separate aspects of agriculture is important, it is equally essential for all those involved in agriculture to understand the functioning of the farming system as a whole and how it can be best managed. It is necessary to re-assess and understand rain-fed farming systems around the world and to find ways to improve the selection, design and operation of such systems for long term productivity, profitability and sustainability. The components of the system must operate together efficiently; yet many of the relationships and interactions are not clearly understood. Appreciation of these matters and how they are affected by external influences or inputs are important for decision making and for achieving desirable outcomes for the farm as a whole. This book analyses common rain-fed farming systems and defines the principles and practices important to their effective functioning and management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greenhouse Gases Balance of Bioenergy Systems covers every stage of a bioenergy system, from establishment to energy delivery, presenting a comprehensive, multidisciplinary overview of all the relevant issues and environmental risks. It also provides an understanding of how these can be practically managed to deliver sustainable greenhouse gas reductions. Its expert chapter authors present readers to the methods used to determine the greenhouse gas balance of bioenergy systems, the data required and the significance of the results obtained. It also provides in-depth discussion of key issues and uncertainties, such as soil, agriculture, forestry, fuel conversion and emissions formation. Finally, international case studies examine typical GHG reduction levels for different systems and highlight best practices for bioenergy GHG mitigation. For bringing together into one volume information from several different fields that was up until now scattered throughout many different sources, this book is ideal for researchers, graduate students and professionals coming into the bioenergy field, no matter their previous background. It will be particularly useful for bioenergy researchers seeking to calculate greenhouse gas balances for systems they are studying. I will also be an important resource for policy makers and energy analysts. - Uses a multidisciplinary approach to synthesize the diverse information that is required to competently execute GHG balances for bioenergy systems - Presents an in-depth understanding of the science underpinning key issues and uncertainty in GHG assessments of bioenergy systems - Includes case studies that examine ways to maximize the GHG reductions delivered by different bioenergy systems

Download or read book Bounded Rationality in Decision making written by Helle Nielsen and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging standard economic models, this book shows how farmers tend to use cognitive shortcuts and how professional pride frequently trumps profit considerations when farmers make decisions about fertilizers and other types of decisions. This indicates that environmental regulation based on economic incentives may not work as effectively as economic theory and ex ante policy analyses would have it. Rather than assuming that regulations respond to incentive-based policies, this book examines the ways in which they do, which is rare in the policy-making literature. Furthermore, the book demonstrates in a real world setting how bounded rationality plays out, whereas bounded rationality in decision-making has typically been studied in a laboratory setting. The book contains a comprehensive and comparative review of rational and bounded rationality models of behavior. It explores concepts developed in books such as Administrative Behaviour by Herbert Simon and, A Behavioural Theory of the Firm by Cyert and March, and it reviews their implications for economic theory and environmental policy. Empirically, the book examines the responses of farmers in Denmark to fertilizer regulation and the decision processes they go through regarding fertilizer levels. Fertilizer regulation builds on economically optimal levels and therefore offers a rational standard against which to compare actual decisions on fertilizer levels. This lends the study a significant methodological advantage, and it represents a novel approach to the study of rationality. It combines quantitative analysis of fertilizer practices among Danish farmers over more than 10 years with qualitative interviews. These are compared with analysis other types of decisions showing that decision processes and the weight assigned to economic considerations varies by type of decisions.
