THE IMPACT OF MACROVARIABLES ON THE FARM SECTOR: SOME FURTHER EVIDENCE

Abebayehu Tegene

Southern Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1990, vol. 22, issue 01, 9

Abstract: Granger-causality tests and Sims' VAR techniques were used to analyze the impact of macrovariables on farm output and prices in the U.S. for the period 1934-1987. Granger-causality tests show one-way causality from the macrovariables to the farm sector variables, and this is supported by impulse response functions from a VAR model. Money and interest rate effects on agricultural prices and output are apparent in the data.
