Are Agricultural Extension Packages What Ethiopian Farmers Want? A Stated Preference Analysis

By Carlsson, Fredrik Köhlin, Gunnar Mekonnen, Alemu Yesuf, Mahmud from ScientificCommons.org - Gunnar Köhlin. Published on .

[Carlsson, Fredrik Köhlin, Gunnar Mekonnen, Alemu Yesuf, Mahmud] There is an evident dichotomy in many rural development policies in the world between extension driven adoption of modern inputs and community driven local public goods.

The wellknown problem of compliance bias is also difficult to avoid in such settings....

[Sterner, Thomas Köhlin, Gunnar] This paper provides an overview and a discussion of environmental taxes in Europe. On the whole, most European countries have fairly high levels of environmental taxation at least compared to the US. This appears broadly speaking to be true of both tax levels and tax revenues. It is partly related to a greater reliance on taxes as an instrument of environmental policy and partly due to a greater acceptance of taxes and maybe a larger public sector overall. It may also be due to a more ambitious...
