Do Tax Incentives for Farmland Leases Increase Farm Supply? Evidence From Iowa's Beginning Farmer Tax Credit

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent decades, agriculture has become increasingly concentrated through horizontal mergers and acquisitions via corporate entities, and policy makers are concerned this will be exacerbated by the aging population of farm operators. To reduce market concentration in agriculture, many states have enacted policies to entice new prospective ...

Leveraging covariates in regression discontinuity designs

IZA World of Labor
It is common practice to incorporate additional covariates in empirical economics. In the context of regression discontinuity (RD) designs, covariate adjustment plays multiple roles, making it essential to understand its impact on analysis and conclusions.

Regression Discontinuity Applications with Rounding Errors in the Running Variable [PDF]

Many empirical applications of regression discontinuity (RD) models use a running variable that is rounded and hence is discrete, e.g., age in years, or birth weight in ounces. This paper shows that standard RD estimation using a rounded discrete running

Heterogeneity in Food Price Inflation Convergence Across the EU: Evidence From Club Dynamics and Structural Breaks

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines food price inflation rate convergence among EU27 Member States from 2005 to 2024, focusing on structural breaks, external shocks, and regional disparities. Using panel unit root tests and club convergence analysis, the findings reveal no overall convergence but identify multiple convergence clubs.

Journal of Causal Inference
Following Efron (2014), we propose an algorithm for estimating treatment effects for use by researchers employing a regression-discontinuity (RD) design.

Market‐Based Nutrition Regulation and Adult BMI Dynamics in Latin America

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Market‐based nutrition policies, including interpretative labeling systems and taxes on sugar‐sweetened beverages (SSBs), have been widely adopted across Latin America to influence dietary choices and address rising obesity rates. While prior research documents change in food purchasing and product reformulation following these policies ...

Regression Discontinuity Marginal Threshold Treatment Effects [PDF]

In regression discontinuity models, where the probability of treatment jumps discretely when a running variable crosses a threshold, an average treatment effect can be nonparametrically identified.
