Applied Energy, 1990, vol. 37, issue 2, 85-98

Abstract: The specific inputs considered, in addition to energy, are labor, nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, pesticides, and water. The results show that input use is responsive to variations in own prices and that some limited substitution does occur between energy, labor, and nitrogen fertilizer.
