The generation of output supply and input demand elasticities for a Johansen-type model of the Irish agricultural sector
估计了爱尔兰农业部门的产出供给与投入需求系统,生成一组弹性用于构建约翰森型模型,对农业政策建模者有用。
This paper .attempts the estimation of an integrated output supply and input demand system for the Irish, agricultural sector. The objective of the exercise is the geneiation of a set ofelasticities 'to be used in the construction of a Johansen 'type model of the sector. Drawing on separability prjnciples, the estimation problem is divided into three levels: the estimation of an aggregate profit function; a revenue function for aggregate .output; a revenue function for aggregate tillage output; and a cost function for aggregate fertiliser consumption. Elasticities are otitained for 'each level and the integrated production system.
