Abolition of Raw Milk Quota in the European Union: A CGE Analysis at the Member Country Level
研究在可计算一般均衡框架下分析欧盟废除原料奶配额和取消乳制品出口补贴对成员国的影响，发现丹麦等国产出增加，德国等国下降，欧盟整体产量上升3%、价格下降22%。
This paper discusses a generic approach to implementing production quotas in an applied general equilibrium framework. The quota rent is interpreted as additional primary factor payments. We analyse the abolition of the raw milk quota and the elimination of export subsidies for dairy products in the European Union at a member country level. The raw milk output increases in Denmark, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Spain, while it declines in Germany, Greece, Portugal and Sweden. The EU-wide effect for raw milk production is an output increase of 3% and a price decline of 22%. To assess the robustness of the critical assumption about the raw milk quota rent we apply Arndt and Pearson's Systematic Sensitivity Analysis.
