Protecting Forests Through Farming: A Dynamic Model Of Nontimber Forest Extraction, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, Herath Gunatileke
Protecting Forests Through Farming: A Dynamic Model Of Nontimber Forest Extraction, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, Herath Gunatileke
Ujjayant Chakravorty
Forest resource extraction by local communities has been cited as a major impediment to the efficient management of protected forests. This paper develops a two sector dynamic model for farming and forest resource extraction by communities living in the forest periphery. The model assumes that land under forestry is constant and households allocate their time to farming and forestry. Comparative dynamic results suggest that higher prices for agriculture output, lower input prices, better knowledge of farming techniques and a lower discount rate may result in a higher equilibrium stock of forest resources. Tobit analysis with primary data collected from the …
Efficiency And Technical Change In The Philippine Rice Sector: A Malmquist Total Factor Productivity Analysis, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, Chieko Umetsu, Thamana Lekprichakul
Efficiency And Technical Change In The Philippine Rice Sector: A Malmquist Total Factor Productivity Analysis, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, Chieko Umetsu, Thamana Lekprichakul
Ujjayant Chakravorty
Regional differences in total factor productivity, efficiency, and technological change in the Philippine rice sector are examined for the post-Green Revolution era. Malmquist productivity indices were constructed for 1971-90 and were decomposed into efficiency and technological change. The average annual Malmquist productivity growth was only slightly positive. Productivity growth was negative during the early 1970s, and was followed by a period of positive growth. Growth was negative again in the late 1980s. The period of positive growth coincided with the introduction of new rice varieties while the declines are likely to have been caused by intensification of rice production in …
State Laws And The Independent Judiciary: An Analysis Of The Effects Of The Seventeenth Amendment On The Number Of Supreme Court Cases Holding State Laws Unconstitutional, Donald J. Kochan
Donald J. Kochan
In recent years, the Seventeenth Amendment has been the subject of legal scholarship, congressional hearings and debate, Supreme Court opinions, popular press articles and commentary, state legislative efforts aimed at repeal, and activist repeal movements. To date, the literature on the effects of the Seventeenth Amendment has focused almost exclusively on the effects on the political production of legislation and competition between legislative bodies. Very little attention has been given to the potential adverse effects of the Seventeenth Amendment on the relationship between state legislatures and the federal courts. This Article seeks to fill part of that literature gap, applying …
