Ex‐Ante Assessment of Farm Resilience to Institutional Shocks: A Modeling Approach
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Using the agent‐based model SWISSland, we simulate farm‐level responses and interactions under two institutional shocks: tariff reductions and direct payment reductions. Using a framework we developed, we assess resilience capacities, resilience attributes, and the provision of private and public goods, following the shock.
