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
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
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.
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.
This AGRODEP Technical Note provides a literature review on the topic of estimation of demand and supply elasticities.

Micro-macro syntheses have become a powerful tool to capture the micro effects of macro policies and external shocks on income distribution and poverty.
Since Jan Tinbergen’s original formulation (Tinbergen 1962), gravity has long been one of the most successful empirical models in economics.
Partial equilibrium (PE) analysis is commonly used to analyze the effects of policies, in particular trade policies, on price and welfare in the market that is directly affected.
This technical note presents a review of the functional forms commonly used to represent demand and production in Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models. The general properties of demand and production functions are described.
This document describes the RECS toolbox and also several applications of this modeling framework to commodity markets related issues.
In this document we give several examples of hands-on estimation to familiarize yourself with the gravity equation methodological choices highlighted in the literature review.
