PRODUCER COOPERATIVES, INPUT PRICING AND LAND ALLOCATION
研究生产者合作社如何对两种投入品（公共提供的私人投入品和本地公共投入品）定价，发现人头税歧视优于使用费，但长期允许土地租赁可带来帕累托改进。
This paper considers input pricing rules for a producer cooperative which supplies its members with two inputs: a publicly provided private input (water), and a local public input (road services). An Israeli Moshav which allocates land equally among producers is a good example. The cooperative uses a two‐part pricing rule: a product‐dependent uniform fee (head tax) and a user charge per unit of the private input. Discrimination of head tax among the producer groups is shown to dominate that of user charge in the short run. However, land reallocation among producers can result in a Pareto‐superior pricing rule and the Henry George theorem emerges in the long run. Thus, allowing land leasing while maintaining equal rights to land increases producer welfare.
