BOOTSTRAPPING ECONOMETRIC MODELS [PDF]
, 2007 The bootstrap is a statistical technique used more and more widely in econometrics. While it is capable of yielding very reliable inference, some precautions should be taken in order to ensure this. Two "Golden Rules" are formulated that, if observed, help to obtain the best the bootstrap can offer.

Consumer Valuation of Meat Alternatives and Labeling Policies: A Comparative Perspective
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates and compares US consumer perceptions and the impact of environmental, human health, and animal welfare information related to conventional meat on preferences for meat alternatives and labeling policies. Using the best–worst scaling method across 10 different burger alternatives, our results show that the meat burger is

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Temperature Sensitivity and Adaptation of Cereal Yields: Empirical Evidence From Italy
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates the evolving temperature sensitivity and climate adaptation of cereal yields in Italy from 1952 to 2023, using province‐level data for maize, common wheat, and durum wheat. Employing panel data econometric methods, we estimate yield responses to heat exposure, changes in sensitivity over time, and adaptation to climate ...

Are all meats substitutes? A basket‐and‐expenditure‐based approach
Agribusiness, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines the relationship among animal‐based meat and plant‐based meat alternatives (PBMAs) using a basket‐and‐expenditure‐based choice experiment. In particular, we examine whether animal‐based meat products are substitutes or complements with PBMAs.
