Integrated water resource management strategies have shown effectiveness in decision support, but a deeper integration of economic and participative methodologies is needed. This research reviews the core characteristics and directions of experimental economics and living labs (LLs) and aims to address three research questions, namely, how the participatory, real-world environment of living laboratories can be incorporated into the controlled, hypothesis-driven nature of experimental economics; what is the significance of behavioral insights that are derived from experimental economics in the design and implementation of living labs; and how these two approaches can be merged under one framework. The focus of this review is the improvement of water resource management through collaborative and stakeholder-driven innovation. LLs provide authentic environments for cocreation, allowing scientists and stakeholders to address water-related issues such as supply, demand, and shortage. These environments connect controlled experimental conditions with real applications, providing comprehensive insights into behavioral reactions and policy formulation. LLs can enhance and be strengthened by economic methodologies, particularly in water valuation through integrated frameworks accounting for environmental externalities and opportunity costs. Finally, this article shows that integrating behavioral insights and experimental approaches within LLs improves the external validity of experimental economics by putting interventions in real-world settings.","PeriodicalId":48856,"journal":{"name":"Annual Review of Resource Economics","volume":"121 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145255732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Proponents argue for market failure correction and industry nurturing, while opponents warn of the inability of the government to “pick winners” and its vulnerability to rent-seeking interests. What the current literature overlooks is that effective industrial policies must simultaneously design pie-expanding “public good” policies with appropriate redistribution policies to facilitate their political acceptance. Using this notion, this review proposes a new approach by extending the political-economic seeking transfer and political-economic resource transaction (PEST-PERT) portfolio framework to examine the efficacy of industrial policies in the agricultural, natural resource, and environmental sectors. Several empirical examples are presented, including payment for ecosystem services, conservation programs, agricultural policy reform, development subsidies to increase maize productivity, infrastructure development, and transportation investments. These industrial policy portfolios are dissected for two policy types: (a) pie-expanding policies that promote public goods, reduce transaction costs, and resolve coordination failures; and (b) redistributive policies often needed to overcome opposition from blocking coalitions. In each empirical study, the policy portfolio is specified, distinguishing these two types of policies.","PeriodicalId":48856,"journal":{"name":"Annual Review of Resource Economics","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144850484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Retail prices, cost per day, and affordability relative to earnings have been used to measure food access for centuries, driving early definitions of poverty and income thresholds for subsistence. Substitution between items based on food composition was introduced soon after nutrient requirements were quantified, leading to the development of linear programming and other diet modeling techniques. This article describes how and why modern diet cost and affordability metrics have been adopted by international organizations, government agencies, and researchers to monitor food markets and guide intervention, concluding with new frontiers for research on other factors limiting access to healthy diets, such as cooking costs and time use, and factors that cause displacement of low-cost healthy diets by other foods.","PeriodicalId":48856,"journal":{"name":"Annual Review of Resource Economics","volume":"115 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144684607","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This large body of literature is skewed toward fertilizer demand, with little emphasis on critical supply chain challenges such as high costs and logistics, nor does it focus on the rising importance of micro, small, and medium enterprises (e.g., agrodealers), fertilizer production, and blending in Africa. Additionally, most research has focused on a relatively small number of countries and on cereal crops, overlooking Africa's geographic, crop, and dietary diversity. The article advocates for a broader research agenda that recognizes the recent dynamism in African fertilizer markets and challenges posed by climate change, conflict, and other shocks. It emphasizes the critical need for new and better-quality data for this research agenda to be executed and to provide empirical evidence-based guidance for more effective and efficient fertilizer use and, ultimately, enhanced agricultural productivity and sustainability on the continent.","PeriodicalId":48856,"journal":{"name":"Annual Review of Resource Economics","volume":"697 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144594181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
