Uncovering the key bilateral trade linkages in the U.S. domestic food supply chain through disruption simulations

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper uses counterfactual simulations to examine the impact of bilateral trade linkage disruptions on the U.S. agricultural and food trade system. Using an econometric gravity model, we estimate the relationship between disruptions and trade flows, identify critical state‐to‐state trade linkages whose disruption would significantly impact
