MIRAGRODEP is a recursive-dynamic, multi-region, multi-sector computable general equilibrium model, devoted to trade and agricultural policy analysis. It is developed for AGRODEP and draws upon the MIRAGE model built by CEPII.
MIRAGRODEP with endogenous tariffs is a recursive dynamic multi-region, multi-sector Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model based on MIRAGRODEP which in turn is based on MIRAGE (Modelling International Relations Under Applied General Equilibri
Since the seminal paper by Granger and Newbold (1974) on spurious regressions, applied econometricians have become aware of the consequences of unit roots in empirical analysis with time series data.
The analysis of price transmission plays a key role in understanding markets integration.
MIRAGRODEP Dual-Dual is a recursive-dynamic multi-region, multi-sector computable general equilibrium model, devoted to trade and agricultural policy analysis. It is developed for AGRODEP and draws upon the MIRAGE model built by CEPII.
Over the past two decades, the prices of agricultural commodities have experienced large and unpredictable fluctuations that have attracted the attention of researchers, policymakers and the media to better understand the mechanisms that govern th
Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models, which are widely used in the literature to quantify potential impacts of economic public policies, are calibrated on data from Social Accounting Matrices (SAM).
Les modèles d’équilibre général calculable (MEGC), largement admis dans la littérature et utilisés comme outils d’analyse d’impacts potentiels de politiques économiques, sont alimentés par des données provenant de la Matrice de Comptabilité Social
Development of agricultural value chains is necessary to help smallholder farmers in Africa. Domestic agricultural policies and trade policies impact all economic agents along the value chain, from farmers to traders to consumers.
Dans cet article nous étudions la sensibilité des modèles d’équilibre général aux modes de bouclage macroéconomique à l’aide du modèle standard de l’IFPRI appliqué au Nigeria et à la Tanzanie.
In this paper, we study the sensitivity of computable general equilibrium (CGE) models to the choice of macroeconomic closure rule using the case of the standard IFPRI model for Nigeria and Tanzania.
This technical note aims to introduce a spatial equilibrium model (SEM) to AGRODEP members. Specifically, by using simplified data, a pedagogic tool is developed to explain the design of a spatial equilibrium model.
L’objectif de cette note technique est de présenter un modèle d’équilibre spatial (MES) mis à la disposition des membres d’AGRODEP.
The AGRODEP Consistent Policy Aggregator Toolbox was created to assist users perform aggregation and tariff reduction senarios.
The objective of this AGRODEP Technical Note is two-fold. First, it aims to describe the mathematical structure of and the economic hypothesis behind the Partial Equilibrium Trade Simulation (PETS) model.
Many books have been written on the subject of macroeconometric modelling that the usefulness of adding a new general contribution can be questioned. Our approach will be original in two ways.
This AGRODEP Technical Note provides a literature review on the topic of estimation of demand and supply elasticities.
