The Impact of Climate Change on Livestock Management in Africa : A Structural Ricardian Analysis
This paper develops the structural
Ricardian method, a new approach to modeling agricultural
performance using cross-sectional evidence, and uses the
method to study animal husbandry in Africa. The model is
intended to estimate the structure beneath Ricardian results
in order to understand how farmers change their behavior in
response to climate. A survey of over 5,000 livestock
farmers in 10 countries reveals that the selection of
