This study estimates the vulnerability
of Latin American agriculture to climate change using a
Ricardian analysis of both land values and net revenues.
Examining a sample of over 2,500 farms in seven countries,
the results indicate both land value and net revenue are
sensitive to climate. Both small farms and large farms have
a hill-shaped relationship with temperature. Estimating
separate regressions for dryland and irrigated farms reveals

power. A World Bank Survey of 115 developing countries shows
that on average, in mid-1998 just 39 percent of key reform
steps had been carried out. There are large variations among
countries in the number of reform steps take, with most
reforms concentrated in a small number of countries. In a
great majority of countries, little or no reform has been -

questions will determine to what extent India's
increasingly scarce natural resources are managed. Moreover, -

This paper develops a Structural
Ricardian model to measure climate change impacts that
explicitly models the choice of farm type in African
agriculture. This two stage model first estimates the type
of farm chosen and then the conditional incomes of each farm
type after removing selection biases. The results indicate
that increases in temperature encourage farmers to adopt
mixed farming and avoid specialized farms such as crop-only
