A Note on the Computation of the Shadow Wage Rate in an Autarkic Agricultural Environment

Victor Ginsburgh and Jean-Pierre Kiekens

European Review of Agricultural Economics, 1989, vol. 16, issue 1, 137-44

Abstract: In this paper, the authors show that an indirect approach, based on mathematical programming, can be followed to evaluate the shadow wage rate and the profitabilty of various production alternatives. The idea is applied to a typical autarkic farm of the intertropical Sahelian region. Copyright 1989 by Oxford University Press.
