A dynamic econometric-simulation model of the U.S. livestock industry

Agricultural policy makers have shown an increased inclination to utilize large-scale computerized models to help evaluate alternative policy proposals. Recent advances in computer technology make it possible for agricultural economists to provide policy makers with detailed multicommodity models which are microcomputer based. These models offer high portability and rapid access to information and at the same time provide analysis of the direct and indirect economic impacts of policies as well as the resulting distributional and welfare impacts.
