Tradeoffs In Agriculture, The Environment, And Farmer Health An Integrated agriculture/environment Model The Pesticides Effect Study agriculture, trade, and the environment Discovering and measuring the critical http://www.cipotato.org/market/PgmRprts/pr95-96/program1/prog18.htm
Extractions: An Integrated Agriculture/Environment Model Policy analysis is typically undertaken nationally or regionally. The analysis frequently uses secondary data that reflect aggregates. However, policy analysis with sustainable agricultural development objectives must include environmental effects that are location-specific. Policy analysis in the heterogeneous biophysical setting of the tropical mountains of Ecuador suffers serious deficiencies from the averaging effects of using data that are not location-linked. One objective of the research on pesticide effects is to improve the potential for policy analysis with sustainable agriculture criteria by developing and implementing a framework that links macrotype policy to microtype effects. The method used here is to define a common unit of measurement valid to the different disciplines and predict the effects of technological or policy changes on those units. In this case, the unit is a farm field. By describing the population of these units statistically and estimating effects on each unit, it is possible to aggregate those effects to a level useful for policy analysis. Using this information, one can define aggregate tradeoffs between economic and environmental or health outcomes in the form of a tradeoff curve.
