Abstract: This article recognizes the importance of two policy instruments in shaping the path of agriculture during its development process. The implications of agricultural price policies on the funding of agricultural research are explicitly considered in a set of structural equations for a unique path of Chilean political history. A political economy model includes four blocks of simultaneous equations estimated as an interdependent system. The level of price policies and public research investments result from the collective action exerted on the government by pressure groups of producers, consumers and taxpayers involved in the production, consumption and funding of agriculture.
