Revisiting the size–productivity relationship with imperfect measures of production and plot size por Ayalew, Hailemariam, Chamberlin, Jordan, Newman, Carol, Abay, Kibrom A., Kosmowski, Frederic, Sida, Tesfaye

Agricultural subsidies and global greenhouse gas emissions por Laborde Debucquet, David, Mamun, Abdullah, Martin, Will, Piñeiro, Valeria, Vos, Rob

“…Here, we find that, while over the years the government support has incentivized the development of high-emission farming systems, at present, the support only has a small impact in terms of inducing additional global GHG emissions from agricultural production; partly because support is not systematically biased towards high-emission products, and partly because support generated by trade protection reduces demand for some high-emission products by raising their consumer prices. …”
