How Differently Do Farms Respond to Agri-environmental Policies? A Probabilistic Machine-Learning Approach
Abstract
This study evaluates to what extent farmers respond heterogeneously to the agri-environmental policies implemented within the European Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Our identification and estimation strategy combines a theory-driven research design formalizing all possible sources of heterogeneity with a Bayesian additive regression trees algorithm. Results from a 2015-2018 panel of Italian farms show that the responsiveness to these policies may differ substantially across farms and farm groups. This suggests room for improvement in the implementation of these policies. We also argue that the specific features of the CAP call for a careful implementation of these empirical techniques.
期刊介绍:
Land Economics is dedicated to the study of land use, natural resources, public utilities, housing, and urban land issues. Established in 1925 by the renowned economist and founder of the American Economic Association, Richard T. Ely at the University of Wisconsin, Land Economics has consistently published innovative, conceptual, and empirical research of direct relevance to economists. Each issue brings the latest results in international applied research on such topics as transportation, energy, urban and rural land use, housing, environmental quality, public utilities, and natural resources.
