Abstract: This paper presents innovative practices for the regionalized estimation and structural analysis of specific costs for wheat, based on the European Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN). When implementing public policies, it is necessary to generate not only the central estimates of the distribution of the parameter of interest but also its lower or upper quantiles to select appropriate regulatory thresholds. By considering the individual heterogeneity and asymmetry of farm specific costs, this paper introduces methodologies for estimating specific costs in conditional quantiles, dual estimations of gross margins and pseudo-barycentric imputations of partial estimates. The projection of additional elements on factorial graphs allows analyzing changes of scale, from national to regional or structural, by carrying out a comparative study of the results. In order to test its relevance, this innovative procedure is applied to the estimation and analysis of specific costs and gross margins for the regions of the ma
