No 96491, 2010 Conference, August 26-27, 2010, Nelson, New Zealand from New Zealand Agricultural and Resource Economics Society

Abstract: The paper discusses the way pastoral and forestry systems are defined in econometric land use modelling on a national level. It briefly reviews the relevant data bases and modelling tools. Above all, it reflects on the questions asked and information needed in the work of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF) Policy. The paper presents the first results of a working group about the key policy questions related to land use and land use change and the adequacy of the related analyses and modelling approaches.
