| Abstract: | A conceptual framework was developed that can be used to analyze the interactions between agricultural and environmental policies and pollution. This framework integrates physical and economic models at a disaggregate level necessary to capture the heterogenity of physical environment and economic behaviour of farmers. The disaggregate units can be statistically aggregated to a level useful for policy analysis. Agricultural and environmental policies can be categorized according to their effects on the intensive and extensive margins. Existing policies can have either positive or negative effects on nonpoint source pollution. The framework provides a basis for empirical investigations of these effects, given adequate data. |
