Effective farm management, driven by dairy farmers' intrinsic motivation, plays a pivotal role.

Based on a survey of 682 German dairy farmers, the results underscore the importance of intrinsic motivation, habitual behavior, and knowledge acquisition. Farmers' willingness to engage in continuous improvement suggests that policies should focus less on formal programs and more on enabling intrinsic motivation.

Since the start of the outbreak in 2022, more than 105 million birds across commercial and backyard operations in 48 states have been affected. Many countries, including top importers of U.S. poultry meat and products, have imposed trade restrictions on U.S. poultry exports in response to the outbreak. We examine the impacts of county- and state-level restrictions and HPAI cases on U.S. poultry exports in 2022 and 2023 using a fixed-effects Poisson model. We find that state-level restrictions have a negative and statistically significant effect on export value, associated with a 60% decline in real export value, compared to when no state restrictions are in place. Conversely, county-level restrictions are associated with a 16% decline, suggesting that geographic granularity is an important determinant of the impact of a ban and USDA efforts to negotiate for more localized restrictions ensure the continuation of U.S. poultry exports under an animal health emergency.</p>","PeriodicalId":8004,"journal":{"name":"Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy","volume":"47 3","pages":"933-948"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/aepp.13504","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144273482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We derive theoretical parameters in the Cobb–Douglas production framework and estimate these parameters using fixed-effects panel instrumental variable and system generalized method of moments estimations. Contrary to theoretical predictions, we find that water-related innovation has a significant negative effect on water productivity. This suggests the presence of a productivity paradox in the water sector. In our analysis, this paradox is consistent across various modeling specifications and alternative estimations, marking a unique phenomenon not previously observed outside the information and communication technologies sector. Furthermore, the paradox is more pronounced in countries of the global north compared with those in the global south, a divergence we attribute to differences in economic structures, technological capabilities, and resource allocations.

Its success and popularity is due to many factors but what is especially important is its promotion of the dignity of recipients and allowing for the autonomy of recipients' choices. In contrast, two other well-known food assistance programs run by the USDA, the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), have imposed hurdles to the goals of dignity and autonomy which have led to many potential participants foregoing benefits.
