The effect of stochastic factors on soil carbon makes the quantity generated under a sequestration project uncertain. Hence, sequestered may need to be discounted avoid liability from shortfalls. We present potentially applicable uncertainty discount and discuss difficulties that might arise in empirical use. insist variance historical crop yields across geographical areas is used derive proxy for forming an projects. Application our approach suggests level discounts would 15-20% East Texas region.
Abstract The 2018/2019 trade conflict between the United States and China impacted a broad array of agricultural products, including soybeans. Previous studies using gravity models fail to account for trends complex seasonal patterns observed in data. This study uses machine learning (ML) approach estimate losses soybean export value volume from war. We find that ML techniques outperform traditional exports $10.16 billion/year. fit data series well, highlighting importance utilizing improved...
Utah’s Mighty 5 ad campaign was designed to attract out-of-state visitors southern five National Parks (NPs). Using the synthetic control method, we find have contributed rapid visitation growth at Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef NPs. No effect found for Bryce Canyon Zion NPs, which implies that recent increased these parks has been driven by national trends not promotion. Canyon, currently suffer from excess demand (congestion), US Park Service is actively engaged in visitor...

This study examines marketing strategies for small-scale producers by comparing the risk and return properties of direct (farmers’ markets) wholesale channels. Farmers’ market prices fresh produce were collected at sixteen markets in Utah Colorado. San Francisco terminal used to represent prices. A simulation model combined price, yield, construct probability distribution functions showing likelihood differing levels profit eleven options. The results show that riskaverse prefer a...
Abstract This article analyzes the existence of moral hazard in prevented planting (PP) United States. The PP provision is defined as “failure to plant an insured crop by final date due adverse events.” If farmer decides not a crop, receives indemnity. Late (LP) option for farmers while maintaining insurance after date. Crop may alter farmers’ behavior selecting or LP and could increase likelihood claims even though can choose LP. study finds evidence that with higher coverage tends more...
