Description

Optimal land use and farm area choices depend on crop prices, input prices, family labor, household characteristics, and agro-ecological characteristics. Location in the watershed (e.g. altitude) is important. We can distinguish separate decision units by location for purposes of linking to environmental analyses. We parameterize the model using Lantapan farm survey data from 1994 – 2002. Powerpoint.
