Henichsmeye should be named fis, as he pushed he eam in Bonn o look fo suiable panes, sa pe-ess and woe a poposal using he idea of a combinaion of a EU make model fo agiculual poducs wih egional aggegae pogamming models, which led o he fis CAPRI pojec The wok would have no been possible wihou he expeience and ools developed in he conex of ealie pojecs by eam membes in Bonn such as Hans-Josef Geuel and Andea Zinl. Equally impoan wee elemens of he SPEL/MFSS and RAUMIS pojecs. In he lae case, some of he RAUMIS eam membes conibued diecly o he fis CAPRI pojec. Nex comes he eam in Reggio Emilia who invened he aconym CAPRI a good ademak is almos as impoan as he poduc iself. I is ceainly fai o menion he Euopean Commission nex, which povided he necessay addiional funds beyond he ones invesed by he newok iself. Bu he ole of he Euopean Commission wen beyond ha in many especs. The success of CAPRI would have been impossible wihou he inees and ciical feedback of ou panes a DG-AGRI in G1 and G2. Addiionally, bigge pas of he daa pa wee povided by EUROSTAT and conacs a EUROSTAT bough ciical and helpful commens o he developmen of he new mehodology and algoihm o build up a consisen and complee daa base. DG-ENV financed anohe pojec aound CAPRI and he Euopean Envionmenal Agency oped fo CAPRI as he souce fo he hed size pojecion in he conex of he Clean Ai fo Euope pogam. Remain he many people who conibued wih bis and pieces ove he yeas. I is no necessay hee o menion hem individually, many can be found as auhos of pas of his documenaion anywhee. Bu i seems impoan o sess he fac ha hei abiliy o look a he bigh side of life, o see he poenial of ideas moe han he had wok equied o ge hem woking, and o emain fiendly and helpful even unde sess made he CAPRI newok a unique expeience fo all involved. The nex ound of CAPRI pojecs again funded by DG-RSRCH has aleady saed.

The es of he documen follows he pojec wokflow: he diffeen seps of building up he naional and egional daa base (chape 2), he allocaion of diffeen inpus (chape 3) and he pojecion ools needed o esablish a baseline (chape 4) ae discussed. Chape5 deals wih he scenaio impac analysis: descipion of he diffeen modules of he economic model and hei elaionships. In he las wo chapes (chapes 6 and 7) he fam ype appoach and he exploiaion ools used in CAPRI ae biefly pesened. 1.2 Hisoy of CAPRI CAPRI sands fo Common Agiculual Policy Regionalised Impac analysis and is boh he aconym fo an EU-wide quaniaive agiculual seco modelling sysem and of he fis pojec cened aound i 1. The name hins a he main objecive of he sysem: assessing he effec of CAP policy insumens no only a he EU o Membe Sae level bu a sub-naional level as well. The scope of he pojec has widened ove ime: he fis phase (FAIR3-CT : CAPRI ) povided he concep of he daa base and he egional supply models, bu linked hese o a simple make model disinguishing he EU and es-of-he-wold. In paallel, a eam a he FAL in Baunschweig applied CAPRI o asses he consequences of an inceased shae of biological faming sysem (FAIR3-CT : Effecs of he CAP-efom and possible fuhe developmens on oganic faming in he EU). A fuhe elaively small pojec (ENV.B.2/ETU/2000/073: Developmen of models and ools fo assessing he envionmenal impac of agiculual policies, ) added a dis-aggegaion below adminisaive egions in fom of fam ype models, efined he exising envionmenal indicaos and added new ones. A new pojec wih he oiginal newok (QLTR : CAP-STRAT ) efined many of he appoaches of he fis phase, and linked a complex spaial global muli-commodiy model ino he sysem. The applicaion of CAPRI fo suga make efom opions in he conex of anohe pojec impoved he way he complex ABC suga quoa sysem is handled in he model. In 2004, again a lage pojec (FP VI, N : CAPRI-Dynaspa) saed unde he co-odinaion of he eam in Bonn o ende he sysem ecusive-dynamic, dis-aggegae esuls in space, include he new Membe Saes and add a labou module and an indicao fo enegy use. A he same ime, a pojec began o apply CAPRI o analyse he effecs of bi-laeal ade libealisaion wih Medieanean counies (FP VI, N : EU-MedAgPol). In 2005, a pojec fo IPTS/JRC saed o updae and impove he fam ype model laye and o include Bulgaia and Romania. A he same ime, he SEAMLESS pojec (FP VI: ) saed, wih CAPRI used o link esuls wih a complex laye of fam ype models and fom hee o naional, EU and global makes. In SEAMLESS he fam ype laye of CAPRI will be efined and updaed, and a module fo endogenous sucual change 1 Web Sie: hp:// Page 7 of 133

The vey fis applicaion in 1999 analysed he so-called Agenda 2000 efom package of he CAP. Sholy afewads, a eam a SLI, Lund, Sweden applied CAPRI o analyse CAP efom opion fo milk and daiy. FAL, Baunschweig looked ino he effecs of an incease of biological poducion sysems. WTO scenaios wee un by he eam in Bonn in 2002 and Moeove CAPRI was applied o analyse suga make efom opions a egional level, linked o esuls of he WATSIM and CAPSIM models. In 2003, scenaios dealing wih he CAP efom package iled Mid Tem Review wee pefomed by he eam in Bonn (Biz e al. 2003) and adable pemis fo geenhouse gas emission fom agiculue analysed (Péez 2005). The eam in Louvain-La-Neuve, ogehe wih he goup in Bonn, analysed suga make efom opions, applying he make module linked o he egional supply models (Adenaeue e al. 2004). In 2004 followed an analysis of a compulsoy insuance paid by fam agains Food and Mouh disease by SLI and uns dealing wih mehane emission by he eam in Galway, Ieland. In he same yea CAPRI was insalled by DG-AGRI in Bussels and a baseline geneaed in ode o mach DG-AGRI s oulook pojecions. Thee eams should be menioned, as hey povided hei own funds o shae he newok and conibue o he sysem: he eams a FAT, Tänikon in Swizeland, he eam a NILF, Oslo in Noway, and he eam a SLI, Lund in Sweden. If no explicily menioned in he following, he documened feaues had been co-financed by DG-RSRCH. The documenaion as i sands now capues he sae of he sysem in sping 2004 a he end of he CAP-STRAT pojec. I is planned o updae he documenaion on a egula basis if he need aises. 1.3 Oveview on CAPRI The CAPRI modelling sysem iself consiss of specific daa bases, a mehodology, is sofwae implemenaion and he eseaches involved in hei developmen, mainenance and applicaions. The daa bases exploi wheeve possible well-documened, official and hamonised daa souces, especially daa fom EUROSTAT, FAOSTAT, OECD and exacions fom he Fam Accouning Daa Newok (FADN) 2. Specific modules ensue ha he daa used in CAPRI ae muually compaible and complee in ime and space. They cove abou 50 agiculual pimay and pocessed poducs fo he EU (see able 26 in he Annex), fom fam ype o global scale including inpu and oupu coefficiens. The economic model builds on a philosophy of model emplaes which ae sucually idenical so ha insances fo poducs and egions ae geneaed by populaing he emplae wih specific paamee ses. This appoach ensues compaabiliy of esuls acoss poducs, aciviies and egions, allows fo low cos sysem mainenance and enables is inegaion wihin a lage modelling newok such as SEAMLESS. A he same ime, he appoach opens up he chance fo complemenay appoaches a diffeen levels, which may shed ligh on diffeen aspecs no coveed by CAPRI o help o lean abou possibiliy aggegaion eos in CAPRI. 2 FADN daa ae used in he conex of so-called sudy conacs wih DG-AGRI, which define explicily he scope fo which he daa can be used, who has access o he daa and ensue he daa ae desoyed afe he lifeime of he conac.

9 The economic model is spli ino wo majo modules. The supply module consiss of independen aggegae non-linea pogamming models epesening aciviies of all fames a egional o fam ype level capued by he Economic Accouns fo Agiculue (EAA). The pogamming models ae a kind of hybid appoach, as hey combine a Leoniefechnology fo vaiable coss coveing a low and high yield vaian fo he diffeen poducion aciviies wih a non-linea cos funcion which capues he effecs of labou and capial on fames decisions. The non-linea cos funcion allows fo pefec calibaion of he models and a smooh simulaion esponse ooed in obseved behaviou. The models capue in high deail he pemiums paid unde CAP, include NPK balances and a module wih feeding aciviies coveing nuien equiemens of animals. Main consains ouside he feed block ae aable and gassland, se-aside obligaions and milk quoas. The complex suga quoa egime is capued by a componen maximising expeced uiliy fom sochasic evenues. Pices ae exogenous in he supply module and povided by he make module. Gass, silage and manue ae assumed o be non-adable and eceive inenal pices based on hei subsiuion value and oppouniy coss. The make module consiss of wo sub-modules. The sub-module fo makeable agiculual oupus is a spaial, non-sochasic global muli-commodiy model fo abou 40 pimay and pocessed agiculual poducs, coveing abou 40 counies o couny blocks in 18 ading blocks (able 19 on page 94). Bi-laeal ade flows and aached pices ae modelled based on he Amingon assumpions (Amingon 1969). The behavioual funcions fo supply, feed, pocessing and human consumpion apply flexible funcional foms whee calibaion algoihms ensue full compliance wih mico-economic heoy including cuvaue. The paamees ae synheic, i.e. o a lage exen aken fom he lieaue and ohe modelling sysems. Policy insumens cove Poduc Suppo Equivalens and Consume Suppo Equivalens (PSE/CSE) fom he OECD, (bi-laeal) aiffs, he Taiff Rae Quoa (TRQ) mechanism and, fo he EU, inevenion socks and subsidized expos. This sub-module delives pices used in he supply module and allows fo make analysis a global, EU and naional scale, including a welfae analysis. A second sub-module deals wih pices fo young animals. As he supply models ae solved independenly a fixed pices, he link beween he supply and make modules is based on an ieaive pocedue. Afe each ieaion, duing which he supply module woks wih fixed pices, he consan ems of he behavioual funcions fo supply and feed demand ae calibaed o he esuls of he egional aggegae pogamming models aggegaed o Membe Sae level. Solving he make modules hen delives new pices. A weighed aveage of he pices fom pas ieaions hen defines he pices used in he nex ieaion of he supply module. Equally, in beween ieaions, CAP pemiums ae e-calculaed o ensue compliance wih naional ceilings. CAPRI allows fo modula applicaions as e.g. egional supply models fo a specific Membe Sae may be un a fixed exogenous pices wihou any make module. The fam ype model laye may be swiched ON o OFF. Equally, he model may be used in a compaaive-saic o ecusive-dynamic fashion. Pos-model analysis includes he calculaion of diffeen income indicaos as vaiable coss, evenues, goss magins, ec., boh fo individual poducion aciviies as fo egions, accoding o he mehodology of he EAA. A welfae analysis a Membe Sae level, o globally, a couny o couny block level, coves agiculual pofis, aiff evenues, oulays fo domesic suppos and he money meic measue o capue welfae effecs on consumes. Oulays unde he fis pilla of he CAP ae modelled in vey high deail. Envionmenal indicaos cove NPK balances and oupu of climae elevan gases accoding he guidelines of he Inegovenmenal Panel on Climae Change (IPCC). Model esuls ae pesened as Page 9 of 133

The echnical soluion of CAPRI is cened on he modelling language GAMS which is applied fo mos of he daa base wok and CONOPT applied as solve fo he diffeen consained (opimisaion) poblems. The diffeen modules ae seeed by a Gaphical Use Ineface cuenly ealised in C, which ineacs wih FORTRAN code and libaies which ae ine-alias dealing wih daa base managemen. Typically, hese applicaions geneae unspecific pas of he GAMS code. Exploiaion ools apply addiionally Java apples fo ineacive maps and XLM/XSLT o geneae ineacive HTML ables. Mehodological developmen, updaing, mainenance and applicaion of CAPRI ae based on a newok appoach wih is cuenly cened in Bonn. The eam in Bonn acs as a cleaing house : any changes inoduced in CAPRI ae eviewed by i and, when acceped, become pa of he mase vesion. The mase vesion, coveing daa bases, sofwae and documenaion is disibued o all paicipans of he newok usually in he conex of aining sessions which bing he newok ogehe a leas once pe yea. The CAPRI modelling sysem may be defined as a club good : hee ae no fees aached o is use bu he eny in he newok is conolled by he cuen club membes. The membes conibue by acquiing new pojecs, by qualiy conol of daa, new mehodological appoaches, model esuls and echnical soluions, and by oganising evens such as pojec meeings o aining sessions. So fa he newok appoach woked quie successfully bu i migh need evision if he club exceeds a ceain size. Page 10 of 133

11 2 The CAPRI Daa Base Models and daa ae almos no sepaable. Mehodological conceps can only be pu o wok if he necessay daa ae available. Equally, esuls obained wih a model mio he qualiy of he undelying daa. The CAPRI modelling eam consequenly invesed consideable esouces o build up a daa base suiable fo he puposes of he pojec. Fom he beginning, he idea was o ceae wheeve possible susainable links o well-esablished saisical daa and o develop algoihms which can be applied acoss egions and ime, so ha an auomaed updae of he diffeen pieces of he CAPRI daa base could be pefomed as fa as possible. The main guidelines fo he diffeen pieces of he daa base ae: Wheeve possible link o hamonised, well documened, official and geneally available daa souces o ensue wide-spead accepance of he daa and hei susainabiliy. Compleeness ove ime and space. As fa as official daa souces compise gaps, suiable algoihm wee developed and applied o fill hese. Consisency beween he diffeen daa (closed make balances, pefec aggegaion fom lowe o highe egional level ec.) Consisen link beween economic daa as pices and evenues and physical daa as fam and make balances, cop oaions, hed sizes, yields and inpu demand. Accoding o he diffeen egional layes inelinked in he modelling sysem, daa a Membe Sae level -cuenly EU27 plus Noway- need o fi o daa a egional level -adminisaive unis a he so-called NUTS 2 level, abou 300 egions fo EU25- and daa a global level, cuenly 16 non-eu egions boken down o 27 counies o couny blocks. As i would be impossible o ensue consisency acoss all egional layes simulaneously, he pocess of building up he daa base is spli in hee main pas: Building up he daa base a naional o Membe Sae level. I inegaes he EAA (valued oupu and inpu use) wih make and fam daa, wih cop oaions and hed sizes and a hed flow model fo young animals (secion 0). Building up he daa base a egional o NUTS 2 level, which akes he naional daa as given (fo puposes of daa consisency), and includes he allocaion of inpus acoss aciviies and egions as well as consisen aceages, hed sizes and yields a egional level. The inpu allocaion sep allows he calculaion of egional and aciviy specific economic indicaos such as evenues, coss and goss magins pe hecae o head. The egionalisaion sep inoduces supply oiened CAP insumens like pemiums and quoas (secion 2.4). Building up he global daa base, which includes supply uilisaion accouns fo he ohe egions in he make model, bilaeal ade flows, as well as daa on ade policies (Mos Favouie Naion Taiffs, Pefeenial Ageemens, Taiff Rae quoas, expo subsidies) plus daa domesic make suppo insumens (make inevenions, subsidies o consumpion) (secion 2.5). The basic pinciple of he CAPRI daa base is ha of he Aciviy Based Table of Accouns which oos in he combinaion of a physical and valued inpu/oupu able including make balances, aciviy levels (aceages and hed sizes) and he EAA. The concep was developed Page 11 of 133

These aciviies ae chaaceised by physical oupu and inpu coefficiens. Fo mos aciviies, oal poducion quaniies can be found in saisics and oupu coefficiens deived by division of aciviy levels (e.g. sof whea would poduce sof whea and saw, wheeas pigs fo faening would poduce pig mea and NPK compised in manue). Howeve fo some aciviies ohe souces of infomaion ae necessay (e.g. cacass weighs of sows is necessay o deive he oupu coefficien fo he pig faening pocess). Fo manue oupu engineeing funcions ae used o define he oupu coefficiens. The way he diffeen oupu coefficiens ae calculaed is descibed in moe deail below. The second pa chaaceising he poducion aciviies ae he inpu coefficiens. Sof whea, o pick up ou example again, would be linked o a ceain use of NPK feilise o he use of plan poecion inpus, epai and enegy coss. All hese inpus ae used by many aciviies, and official daa egading he disibuion of inpus o aciviies ae no available. The pocess of aibuing oal inpu in a egion o individual aciviies is called inpu allocaion. I is mehodologically moe demanding han consucing oupu coefficiens. Specific esimaos ae developed fo young animals, feilises, feed and he emaining inpus, which ae discussed below. Muliplied wih aveage fam gae pices fo oupus and inpus especively, oupu coefficiens define fam gae evenues, and inpu coefficiens vaiable poducion coss. The aveage fam pices used in he CAPRI daa base ae deived fom he EEA and hence link physical and valued saisics. Howeve in some cases as young animals and manue which ae no valued in he EEA, own esimaes ae inoduced. In ode o finalise he chaaceisaion of he income siuaion in he diffeen poducion aciviies, subsidies paid o poducion mus be aken ino accoun. The CAPRI daa base feaues a ahe complex descipion of he diffeen CAP pemiums allocaed o he individual aciviies. Howeve he poblem of subsidies ouside of CAP fo he EU Membe Saes emains so fa unsolved, bu is on he agenda fo fuue amelioaions. The following able gives an example fo seleced aciviy elaed infomaion fom he CAPRI daa base. Page 12 of 133

These balances ae only available a Membe Sae, no a egional level. Poducion esablishes he link o he EAA as well, as aveage fam gae pices ae uni values deived by dividing he values fom he EAA by poducion quaniies. The hee basic ideniies linking he diffeen elemens of he daa base ae expessed in mahemaical ems as following. The fis equaion implies ha oal poducion o oal inpu use (code in he daa base: GROF o goss poducion/goss inpu use a fam level) can be deived fom he inpu and oupu coefficiens and he aciviy levels (LEVL): Equaion 1 GROF io = j LEVL The second ype of ideniies efes o he fam and make balances: j IO j Page 13 of 133

These esicions ae discussed in deails below. Reades familia wih he wok of he CAPRI eam in he las yeas may wonde why he auhos ae using a modified leas squaes esimao and no a Coss (CE) o Maximum Enopy Esimao (ME). The easons ae simila o he poins menioned above egading he applicaion of a Bayesian appoach: he ex-ane knowledge can be expessed mainly elaing o he esimaed value and no in elaion o esimaed paamees. Accodingly, suppos would need o be defined a leas fo he eo ems and he consisency slacks. The auhos ae convinced ha he cuen famewok can be mapped wihou geae poblems in an enopy esimao bu expecs a highe compuaional buden due o he moe complex objecive funcion Defining uppe and lowe bounds fo he esimaed value The iniial appoach fixed obsevaions a given daa and did no include bounds fo he end esimaes. Aleady fis ess showed ha he end oucomes could look ahe awkwad, especially when seveal obsevaions wee missing a he ends of ime seies, and he necessiy of bounds became obvious. If seveal elemens of a make balance ae missing, fo insance, he consisency condiion ceainly influence he oucome of he pocess, bu if o he bee is no clea befoehand. In ode o keep esimaes in a plausible ange, we defined an esimaion coido fo missing obsevaions based on a moving aveage and he vaiance of each ime seies. Naually, i became obvious immediaely ha no all given daa could be fixed. Assume, fo insance, ha all elemens fo a balance ae given, bu he balance is no closed. Such a daa consellaion would yield infeasibiliies. In ode o allow fo he necessay coecion, a igh coido aound all given daa values was inoduced. As he appoach was esed on a gowing numbe of daa ses, hese igh bounds iniially inoduced aound given daa wee moe and moe elaxed o accommodae fo inconsisencies in he oiginal daa, and ules wee inoduced o widen hem depending on daa consellaions. The code was gowing lage and lage wih ahe complex if-else ules depending on possible inconsisencies in he given daa o avoid infeasibiliies. The envisaged anspaency was in dange o be los. Afe a ciical evaluaion, he pocedue was evised, based on he following agumens. Fisly, if coecions on oiginal daa ae allowed even if hese ae aleady consisen, hee may be a sizeable ade-off beween a bee end fi fo he missing daa and coecions of he exising ones. The declaed aim was howeve o coec oiginal daa only when necessay. Secondly, any updae of he oiginal daa may povoke new inconsisencies, hus Page 18 of 133

19 asking fo lage coecion bounds, o he inoducion o evision of ules o define hese bounds. Accodingly, he soluion should be able o deec if and whee oiginal daa povoke infeasibiliies, and inoduce solely coecions a hese poins. The dual soluion fom minimising he sum of infeasibiliies fom he esimaion poblem shown above is used o define opimal coecion coidos. If he poblem is infeasible wih given bounds, he shadow values on (1.2) o (1.5) show which bounds o consains povoke he infeasibiliies. As consisency consains canno be dopped, a feasible soluion can hence only be found if bounds ae elaxed. Founaely, he dual soluion indicaes exacly which bounds o coec. Exacly hese bounds ae sepwise elaxed unil all infeasibiliies ae emoved and he opimisaion can sa. The pocess fis elaxes bounds fo he esimaes a missing poins befoe bounds aound given daa ae elaxed. Founaely, he pocess can be implemened quie easily. The gadien based solve CONOPT3 fis seaches fo a feasible soluion befoe woking on he objecive. If infeasibiliies ae found, shadow values on consains and equaions ae epoed based on esimaed gadiens fom he minimisaion of infeasibiliies. I is hence no necessay o explicily define he Lagangian funcion of poblem (1) in ode o calculae he shadow values. The saing deviaion allowed fo given daa is jus 0.01% imes he coefficien of vaiance of a linea end on he ime seies, in ode o avoid numeical poblems wih fixed vaiables. The pocess has he advanage of self coecion. If an updae inoduces a se of inenally consisen daa, he bounds fom a fome soluion ae no longe elevan, and he esimaed values ae fixed o he given ones. If an updae povokes infeasibiliies no found befoe, he pocess will auomaically look up he minimal coecion necessay o fulfil he consisency famewok. Hence, chances ae gea ha conol coss fo updaes ae small. Naually, he pocedue may yield quie cuious esimaes fo missing daa if oulies ae pesen and povoke pessue on esimaes of missing daa ove he daa consains. The manifold checks on he esuls le us howeve conclude ha such oulies ae ypically subjec o ahe lage coecions hemselves and do no have a sizeable impac on ohe seies. The ypical check is o plo he given daa agains he consisen ones fo he key ime seies, and obvious oulies usually sick o he eye due o hei high deviaion agains he oiginal daa. Discussions if and how an explici saisical oulie es could and should be inoduced in he famewok ae no ye finalised Bounds fo end esimaes The pocess of defining and elaxing bounds is discussed based on an example. The oiginal ime seies shown in ed - "EL HCOM TOMA (Given)"- in he diagam below is ahe ypical fo gaps in he aw daa. Missing values can be found boh in-beween given poins, and a he ails.

37 3 Inpu Allocaion The em inpu allocaion descibes how aggegae inpu demand (e.g. oal anoganic N feilise use in Denmak) is disibued o poducion aciviies. The esuling aciviy specific daa ae called inpu coefficiens. They may eihe be measued in value ( /ha) o physical ems (kg/ha). The CAPRI daa base uses physical ems and, whee no available, inpu coefficien measued in consan pices. Mico-economic heoy of a pofi maximising poduce equies evenue exhausion, i.e. maginal evenues mus be equal o maginal coss simulaneously fo all ealised aciviies. The maginal physical inpu demand muliplied wih he inpu pice exhauss maginal evenues, leading o zeo maginal pofis. Maginal inpu demands pe aciviy can only be used o define aggegae inpu demand if hey ae equal o aveage inpu demands. The lae is he case fo he Leonief poducion funcion. The advanage of assuming a Leonief echnology in agiculual poducion analysis is he fac ha an explici link beween poducion aciviies and oal physical inpu use is inoduced (e.g. envionmenal indicaos can be linked diecly o individual aciviies o aciviy specific income indicaos, since goss magins can be calculaed). The disadvanage is he ahe igid echnology assumpion. We would fo example expec ha inceasing a cop shae in a egion will change he aveage soil qualiy he cop uses, which in un should change yields and nuien equiemens. I should hence be undesood ha he Leonief assumpion is an absacion and simplificaion of he eal agiculual echnology in a egion. The assumpion is somewha elaxed in CAPRI as wo poducion inensiies ae inoduced. Inpu coefficiens fo diffeen inpus ae consuced in diffeen ways which will be discussed in moe deail in he following secions: Fo niae, phosphae and poash, nuien balances ae consuced so o ake ino accoun cop and manue nuien conen and obseved feilise use, combined wih a simple fixed coefficien appoach fo ammonia losses.

Similaly, impoan envionmenal indicaos ae linked o inpu use and can hence be linked o aciviies as well wih he help of inpu coefficiens. Given he impoance o he inpu allocaion, he CAP-STRAT pojec ( ) compised an own wok package o esimae inpu coefficiens. On a fis sep, inpu coefficiens wee esimaed using sandad economeics fom single fam ecod as found in FADN.

Fuhe on, in some cases esimaes evealed zeo o negaive inpu coefficiens, which canno be aken ove. Accodingly, i was decided o se up a second sage esimaion famewok building upon he unesiced esimaes fom FADN. The famewok can be applied o yeas whee no FADN daa ae available, and hus ensues ha he esuls will be coninuously used fo he yeas ahead, befoe an updae of he labo-inensive esimaions is again necessay and feasible Economeic Esimaion Sandad economeic mehods wee employed o calculae inpu coefficiens fom single fam ecods found in FADN (wihin a consisen aggegaion famewok, as explained in chape 6). Raw daa wee ansfomed ino CAPRI compaible caegoies. Fixed-Effecs, Random Effecs, Weighed Fixed-Effecs, and Weighed Random-Effecs as well as OLS and WLS models wee esed wih vaying degees of success. Afe finding heeoskedasiciy poblems, deciding o neglec fom using an inecep (in ode o confom o he Leonief echnology assumed by he model) and afe compaing esuls fo plausibiliy, i was decided ha a saighfowad WLS model was he mos suiable fom if a consisen esimaion echnique was o be used fo all esimaions. The main eason fo choosing such a simple WLS esimao ove a weighed andom effecs model wih no fixed effec inecep was he quesion of plausibiliy of esuls. Specificaion ess suggesed, in fac, ha fixed effecs esimaos migh have been used in evey egession, bu apa fom he poblem of disibuing fam specific fixed effec ineceps acoss cop and animal aciviies, hee wee wo (elaed) easons no o use hese esuls. Fisly, he esuls of he fixed effecs specificaions on he whole- wee implausible, wih a lage numbe of negaive coefficiens. Secondly, i was fel ha any possible endogeneiy in he esimaions would pobably have a geae popoionae effec in he fixed effecs esuls. The weigh acually used in he final WLS vesions was oal oupu. Iniial expeimens also evealed a high degee of mulicollineaiy if aciviy levels and oupus wee boh used on he igh hand side. Accodingly, i was decided o use oupu on he igh hand side if possible (so ha egional vaiaions could be incopoaed ino he model).

40 3.1.3 Reconciliaion of Inpus, using Highes Poseio Densiy Esimaos Code: inpus\dis_inpu.gms As a esul of he unesiced esimaion based on FADN, a maix of inpu coefficiens and hei esimaed sandad eos is available. Some of hose coefficiens ae elaed o he oupu of a ceain aciviy (e.g. how much money is spend on a ceain inpu o poduce one uni of a poduc), some of hem ae elaed o he aceage of on aciviy (inpu coss pe aciviy level). The able below pesens a sample of he esuls fom he economeic egessions. These ae he oupu (GROF) coefficiens of 2 aciviies, sof whea and baley, fo 4 inpu caegoies; oal inpus (TOIN), oal ohe inpus (TOIX), cop only inpus (COSC), and feilise (FERT). All coefficiens is saisically significan excep hose in ed. Table 6 Sample of sof whea and baley poducion coefficiens fo 4 inpus (1995 pices) GROF AT BL DE DK EL ES FI FR IR IT NL PT SE UK CS. Whea f TOIN TOIX COSC FERT Baley TOIN TOIX COSC FERT Souce: inpu esimaion, CAPRI modelling sysem Fo example, he TOIN coefficien fo sof whea in Ausia eveals ha on aveage i coss an Ausian fame o poduce an exa onne of whea. These coefficiens should eveal a easonable sense of coss-couny compaaive advanage among aciviies. In able 6, he coefficiens of vaiaion fo sof whea fo TOIN, TOIX, COSC, and FERT wee 34 %, 41 %, 29 % and 44 % especively. Those fo baley wee 21 %, 29 %, 19 %, and 27 % especively. Thus, a high degee of vaiaion fo TOIX and FERT is clea in his sample. This gives an indicaion of he geneal vaiabiliy undelying he esimaed coefficiens. All of he economeic coefficiens wee equied o be ansfomed ino an aciviy level fom, due o he fac ha his is he definiion used in he CAPRI model. Befoe his could be done, i seemed necessay o fill up he maix of esimaed coefficiens because some esimaes wee missing and ohes wee negaive. In ode o his we consuced a numbe of coefficiens ha wee weighed aveages among ceain goups. These mean coefficiens wee he following. 1. Mean coefficiens of aciviy goups. Each aciviy was allocaed o a ceain goup (e.g. sof whea belonged o ceeals). Fo each goup we buil weighed aveages among he posiive esimaes wihin a goup using he esimaed -saisics as weighs. This coefficien only exised if hee was a leas one posiive esimae inside Page 40 of 133

41 ha goup and was hen used o eplace he gaps inside he coefficien maix. If ha mean coefficien was no available, due o no posiive esimae inside a goup a all, he nex ype of mean coefficiens became elevan: 2. Mean coefficiens fo an aciviy among Euopean egions. This second ype of mean coefficiens calculaes weighed aveages among hee ypes of egional cluses. These cluses ae Nohen Euopean Saes, Souhen Euopean saes and all Euopean egions. Again, he esimaed -saisics wee used as aggegaion weighs. Unfounaely, his ype of aveages did no fill all gaps in he coefficien maix as hee wee some aciviies ha had no posiive esimae ove he enie EU. Fo hose he hid ype of mean coefficiens was calculaed. 3. Mean coefficiens fo aciviy goups among egional cluses. Hee we calculaed fo he hee egional cluses he aveages of he fis ype of mean coefficiens. As even he lae ae synheic, we gave each mean of hem he same weigh. Founaely hee was only a small pobabiliy ha his coefficien did no exis fo one of he goups as his was only he case if no coefficien inside a goup ove he enie EU had a posiive esimae, which was no he case. Following hese ules we finally go a maix of esimaed and synheic calculaed inpu coefficiens fo boh, he pe aciviy level and he pe poducion uni definiion. 12 Fo he synheic one hee was no esimaed sandad eo available bu we waned o use hose lae on. So we assumed hem o eflec ha hese coefficiens have only weak foundaion o have a -saisic of 0.5. The pe level definiion was only aken ove if he coefficien was eally esimaed o if no pe poducion uni definiion did exis. To ansfe he lae ino pe aciviy level definiion, we muliplied hem wih he aveage yield ( ) of he especive aciviy. The esuling coefficiens and hei sandad eos wee hen used in he coss enopy appoach descibed below. 13 Missing economeic esimaes and compaibiliy wih EAA figues wee no he only easons ha made a econciliaion of esimaed inpus coefficiens necessay. Moeove he economic sense of he esimaes could no be guaaneed and he definiion of inpus in he esimaion diffeed fom he one used in CAPRI. Theefoe we decided o include fuhe pio infomaion on inpu coefficiens in agiculue. The second se of pios in he inpu econciliaion was heefoe based on daa fom he EAA. Toal coss of a ceain inpu wihin an aciviy in a Euopean Membe Sae was calculaed by muliplying he oal expendiues on ha inpu wih he popoion of he oal expeced evenue of ha aciviy o ha of all aciviies using he inpu. Toal expeced evenue in his case was he poducion value (including make value and pemiums) of he especive aciviy. If his esuled in a ceain coefficien being calculaed as zeo due o missing daa, hen his coefficien would be eplaced by one fom a simila aciviy e.g. a zeo coefficien fo MAIF would be eplaced by he coefficien fo GRAS 12 In addiion, a simila pocedue (using slighly diffeen goups) was applied o consucing coefficiens fo he Ohe aciviies (e.g. OCER, OFRU, OVEG), which had been omied fom he economeic esimaions. They ae given he aveage goup coefficien, unless hee is none; hen hey ae given he aveage nohen o souhen Euopean coefficien as appopiae. 13 Adjusmens wee made fo scaling issues wih egad o eggs fo ceain counies, and gass fo Finland. In addiion, when CAFR, CAFF and HEIR did no have economeic daa, hey assumed he coefficiens and sandad eos of CAMR, CAMF and HEIF especively (CAPRI aciviy code definiions in able 29 o he appendix).

42 This kind of pio infomaion ies o give he esuls a kind of economic sense. Fo he same eason he hid ype of pios was ceaed based on sandad goss magins fo agiculual aciviies eceived fom EUROSTAT. Those exised fo nealy all aciviies. The se fom 1994 was used, since his was he mos complee available. Relaive ahe han absolue diffeences wee impoan, given he equiemen o confom o EAA values Highes Poseio Densiy esimaion famewok Given he hee ypes of pio infomaion explained above esimaed inpu coefficiens, daa fom EAA and sandad goss magins-, he choice of a HPD Esimao o econcile esimaed inpu coefficiens seemed o be convenien. 15 The esimaion was caied ou fo all CAPRI aciviies (z) -excluding aciviies ha whee spli up like DCOW ino DCOL and DCOH-, and a numbe of inpus in CAPRI (denoed by X CI,z ) and FADN (X FI,z ) definiion. The lis of inpu definiions can be found in he annex (able 31). Fo each pio we defined 4 suppo poins (k) cened on he value of he pios defined as above. The suppo ange was defined as follows: Fo he economeic esimaes: S XFz,k P XFz + [-100; -1; 1; 100] σ XFz, whee S XF,I,z,k gives he suppo poins fo he FADN inpu X FI,z ha has a sandad eo of σ XFi. Fo he EAA pios: pio *(1+ [-10; -0.1; 0.1; 10]). S XCz,k P XCz (1+ [-10; -0.1; 0.1; 10]), whee S XCz,k gives he suppo poins fo he CAPRI inpu X CI,z. A special eamen was chosen fo he oal inpu coefficien. Hee he suppo ange was half ha fom above. Fo he sandad goss magins: S GM,z,k P GM,z (1+ [-10; -0.1; 0.1; 10]), whee S XCk gives he suppo poins fo he sandad goss magin of aciviy z. We define he a pioi pobabiliy fo each suppo poin o be: AP k = [0.002; 0.49; 0.49; 0.002], in ode o give he ouemos suppo poins less weigh. Poseio pobabiliies ae denoed by PP. The model seup is hen given by: 14 Conay o he economeic esimaed pios, he wo ohe ypes wee diffeen in diffeen yeas, since he econciliaion had o be done fo each yea in he daabase. The second pio ype is yea specific by naue, as he EAA values diffe beween yeas. In case of sandad goss magins, unfounaely, we had hem only fo one yea (1994). So we decided o dive hem ove ime using he popoion of expeced evenue of an aciviy in a ceain yea o ha in he yea The advanage of coss enopy is ha one can define he suppo space ahe wide and give he edges a vey low pio pobabiliy.

Hence, fom he view poin of policy modelling, a plausible descipion of he elaions beween animal poducion, feed use and make pices fo feeds is necessay. The issue has been addessed by a boad ange of mehodological soluions in seco models. Some impoan soluions ae chaaceised as follows: (1) Poducs used fo feed ae modelled as ne-pus, only, depending on cop and animal pices and fuhe facos, e.g. echnological pogess and availabiliy of pimay facos. Hence, he ne-pu appoach models (ina-secoal) feed use implicily. Typically, he elevan paamees ae esimaed based on dualiy in he conex of a pofi funcion whee he poducion possibiliy se is hidden. Plausibiliy checks of hese hidden echnological elaions ae had o do and sill hade o incopoae in he esimaion appoach. (2) Feed use is modelled explicily, bu he undelying echnology is hidden, e.g. when cos funcions fo he feed compound indusy ae esimaed as in BRITZ & SIEBER (1998). Modelling feed use as a funcion of pices is quie common, fo example in mulicommodiy models such as WATSIM of he IAP o he Wold Food Model of he FAO. The echnological elaions ae hidden as in (1), bu somewha easie o check by compaing he change in animal poducion povoked by a pice change wih is effecs on feed use. The nex soluions efe o pogamming models: (3) Feed use is modelled as fix cos pe uni of animal poducion aciviies. Animal poducion will no be affeced diecly by changes in cop poducion and vice vesa, bu only indiecly by an updae of he fix cos coefficiens. (4) Feed use is modelled via feeding aciviies. In ha case, he model ypically simulaneously deemines he opimal levels of animal and cop poducion and he amoun of each oupu fed o he animals. These soluions diffe by: a) The aggegaion level of he feeding suff. Some models, fo example he Geman seco model RAUMIS, have feeding aciviies fo each oupu o each animal aciviy, excluding echnological impossible combinaions such as feeding saw o pigles. The soluion ypically leads o a ahe high numbe of feeding aciviies. Ohes, as he SPEL-MFSS, use aggegaes of aw poducs in he feeding aciviies. Las bu no leas, single aw poducs can be mixed o diffeen pedefined menus whose mix is hen he endogenous vaiable, as in TASM. b) The definiion of he consains. In RAUMIS and SPEL-MFSS (WEBER 1995, pp. 39), equiemens such as enegy o poein ae modelled explicily. If mixes fo ceain animals ae defined befoehand, explici equiemen consains in he model may be lef ou if each individual mix guaanees aleady ha equiemens ae coveed. The highe he numbe of feed use aciviies pe animal aciviy, and he lowe he numbe of equiemen consains, he highe he chance of songly ovespecialised soluions. In ode o ensue a "plausible" mix of he feeding aciviies, bounds on he feeding aciviies ae someimes used, as in SPEL-MFSS Page 48 of 133

49 o in ealie vesions of RAUMIS. The subsiuion possibiliies may be influenced by using PMP on feeding aciviies, as in he new vesion of RAUMIS (CYPRIS 1999). Soluion (3) and (4) may be ieaively coupled o modules which deemine he coss fo soluion (3) o pices used in soluion (4) Soluion in CAPRI Such an ieaive coupling is he case in CAPRI which addesses he quesion of modelling he elaions beween animal and cop poducion, pice and makes as follows: Feed use of non-adable fodde such as gazing is modelled by individual feeding aciviies in he egional supply models. Wheeas feeding aciviies of adable poducs such as whea o soya beans ae aggegaed o five caegoies (ceeals, ich poein, ich enegy, milk based and ohes). Requiemen consains (enegy, poein, lysine ec.) ae inoduced o ensue echnological plausible subsiuion beween feeds. Calibaion o an esimaed feed inpu allocaion ex-pos is guaaneed by PMP calibaion ems. The esimaed feed inpu allocaion guaanees ha he feed posiions of he naional make balances ae me, and ha esuling feed coss ae plausible. Tadable feeding suffs can be sold and bough in unlimied quaniies. No diffeence is made beween adable feeding suffs poduced in he egion and such bough (ne ade appoach). Gas, fodde maize, ohe fodde fom aable land and saw ae assumed o be adable only inside a egional uni. All quaniies poduced in he egions mus be fed o egions o can be los, he lae howeve only in he case of saw. The egional models ae solved independenly fom each ohe wih pices fo oupus and inpus - including feeding suff - fixed. Regional ne ade fom he egional supply model is aggegaed pe Membe Sae and enes he behavioual funcions of he make module including he quaniies of he five feed aggegaes. The link beween he egional supply modules and he make modules is descibed in moe deail below. Make module and egional supply models ae ieaively linked whee pices fom he make module ae used in he supply module geneaing quaniies ha in un ae used in he make module. Fo he five feed aggegaes, he make module deemines - wih each ieaion a new pice and new nuien conens fo he feed aggegaes (fo deails see: HECKELEI, BRITZ & LOEHE 1998). The subsequen secions ae mosly devoed o he quesion how he egional models embedded in he specific CAPRI layou descibed above can be specified in a way ha calibaion of obseved feeding quaniies is achieved, and a plausible simulaion behaviou fo feed use is obained.

When unning a simulaion wih a ypical seco model, he deeminaion of he cop oaion, animal hed sizes and feeding pacise is a simulaneous poblem. 17 How aciviy levels in cop and animal poducion ae calibaed in CAPRI is discussed lae on and we will assume fo simpliciy ha hed sizes (LEVL) of animal caegoies (a) ae given and all feeding suffs (f) ae bough a known pices (PRICE).

Gas, silage and oos ae assumed o be no adable, and consequenly hei feeding quaniies ae fixed a egional availabiliy. Since milk and suga bee quoas fix sales, he feed quaniies of milk and aw milk ae fixed as he esidual beween sales a quoa level and poducion (hee also exogenous).

53 Wihou obseved vaiance, a eliable esimaion is no possible. The - a fis sigh - appealing PMP soluion will consequenly no wok well, if no fuhe infomaion is available. The essence of he agumenaion above is ha he use of an aggegaed cos minimisaion model in simulaion uns is only sensible, if he consains based on he coefficiens (NUTR and REQU) can sufficienly explain obseved feed use in he base yea. Theefoe, he "hypoheical" equiemens mus fis be calibaed wih espec o obseved feeding quaniies in he base yea. Then, as a las eso, PMP can be pu o wok. The geneal poblem is hen o define a se of equiemens which calibaes he feed cos LP as close as possible o saisically obseved quaniies. I is solved by he following seps. (STEP 1.) Definiion of nuiional conen (NUTR) of feeding suffs. Wheeas fo ceeals and ohe aded feeding suffs, he infomaion abou hei conen of enegy, poein ec. is quie accuae, doub may be aised concening fodde (gas, gazings, hay, silage ec.), boh elaed o yield esimaes and nuiional conen. These conens ae hence eaed as endogenous vaiable in he esimaion poblem. (STEP 2.) Definiion of nuiional equiemens (AREQ) fo each animal caegoy in each egion based on so-called equiemen funcions as descibed above. Fo ceain animal caegoies, addiional equiemens o consains ae inoduced (lysine, max. dy mae inake, neual deegen fibe ec.). Fo some of he animal caegoies hey eflec diffeences in egional yields pe head, fo example he milk yield pe cow. The undelying funcions ae based on a lieaue seach and can be undesood as he echnological fonie unde a conolled expeimenal envionmen. (STEP 3.) Calibaion of hese hypoheical equiemens and consains so ha hey ae as fa as possible binding fo he obseved feed quaniies. The necessiy of calibaing he heoeical equiemens can be easily undesood when aking ino accoun he conol cos on fam level elaed o wok exacly on he echnological fonie: he nuien conen of feeding suffs mus be caefully checked and he inake of each feed pe animal exacly weighed. Ohewise, one isks o save he animal, o damage hei healh and o educe yields, wih high coss involved. To exclude ha isk, fames will feed secuely moe han heoeically equied. The calibaion pocess is based on he infomaion compised in he se of "hypoheical" equiemens and feeding consains (enegy, cude poein, dy mae; max. dy mae inake) and he known quaniies fed in he base yea. As he lae ones ae "had" daa o mee, hey seve as consains fo ou calibaion model. The Coss Enopy cieion will minimise deviaion fom appopiae saing poins based on he "hypoheical" equiemens and will ake he effec on he coss of he individual poducion aciviies ino accoun. In conas o mos ohe economeic echniques, he Enopy appoach allows he esimaion of paamees in he case of ill-posed poblems, i.e. if he numbe of obsevaions is less han he numbe of paamees (GOLAN, JUDGE & MILLER 1996).

Nuien conen fo fodde (gass, fodde maize, ohe fodde fom aable land), based on he able shown in he following. The acual esimaion poceeds sep-wise ove egional aggegaes, since a simulaneous esimaion acoss all egions pe Membe Sae would ceae a ahe lage and somewha inanspaen famewok. Fis, he poblem is solved a Membe Sae level. The esuling esimaed animal equiemens ae hen used o define suppos a NUTS I and lae a NUTS II level. The nuien conen of he fodde fom he Membe Sae level is aken ove o NUTS I and NUTS II level and hence idenical acoss egions o ease he compaison of he feed inpu allocaion.

As he flaes disibuion is eached when all pobabiliies ae equal o a pioi ones, suppos should be cened on a plausible expeced value fo he paamee o be esimaed. In ou case, he "hypoheical" equiemens ae unfounaely no such plausible expecaions. As explained above, hey epesen a echnological fonie no applicable o he secoal aveage. If he cos minimizing poblem shown above based on he "hypoheical" equiemens can squeeze ou lage quaniies and hence undeesimaes he feeding coss, i is a clea hin ha hese equiemens ae eihe oo low, no complee o he nuien conen of he feeding suff is oo high. The quesion is no if specific equiemens in ou poblem ae "coec" in he sense ha a fame o he feed compound indusy would use i in deemining he opimal mix, bu if hey ae suiable in descibing he aggegaed subsiuion possibiliies fo feeding suff. 20 The vaiance of he ME-esimaes appoaches a lowe limi if he numbe of suppo poins goes o infiniy (GOLAN, JUDGE, MILLER 1986, p.139). In ess wih a simple "wo paamee" - "one consain" ME poblem, he effec of inceasing he numbe of suppo poins was judged significan only up o fou suppo poins.

The esuling new pice fo he bulks as well as hei new nuien conen ae hen handed back in he nex oveall model ieaion o he supply module. The oveall sucue is hence a mixue of pimal and dual appoaches.

Howeve when esimaing simulaneously he diffeen ends, we need o eflec if he sum of squaes (SSQ) as a penaly funcion sill woks easonable.

Howeve we may use he agumenaion undelying he usual es saisics fo he paamees elaed o he end (a,b,c). These saisics es he pobabiliy of (a,b,c) being significanly diffeen fom zeo.

The easoning behind he es saisics is he basis fo he suppos defined above. We modified i howeve o mach he poblem a hand. Fis of all, we used a hee-yea aveage based on he las known values as he fallback posiion and no he mean of he seies.

Fo ou applicaions, we oped fo a coninuous ule as i would simply be impossible o analyze manually each and evey end line and decide upon an alenaive esimaion. The coninuous ule daws he esimaes songe in diecion of ou H0 he value is equal o he hee yea aveage aound he las known poins he shakie he esimaed paamees ae. The esuling penaly funcion is defined as minimizaion of he squaed deviaions fom he suppos defined above, weighed wih he vaiance of he eo ems fom he fis sep: Equaion 77 Penaly = j, exane X j," Tend " j, exane X X j," Sep1" " vae" j," Suppo" exane The value used by ha penaly funcion fo each ime poin consiss hence of wo elemens: (1) he diffeence beween he end esimae fiing ino he consisency condiions and he suppos deived fom he unesiced ends, and (2) he vaiance of he eo ems fom he end esimaes. Fo all unesiced end lines, he mean eo will be zeo so ha i canno be used as a cieion. Insead, he vaiance of he eo em is used as a measuemen fo he magniude of he eo ems.

How is he fis elemen of he em moivaed, i.e. he squaed diffeence beween he esiced end esimaes and he suppos?

Nuien equiemens ene he supply models as consains and all ohe vaiable inpus, ogehe wih hei pices, define he accouning cos maix. In he second sage, he pofi maximising mix of cop and animal aciviies is deemined simulaneously wih cos minimising feed and feilise in he supply models. Availabiliy of gass and aable land and he pesence of quoas impose a esicion on aceage o poducion possibiliies. Moeove cop poducion is influenced by se aside obligaions and animal equiemens (e.g. goss enegy and cude poein) ae coveed by a cos minimised feeding combinaion.

In he cuen vesion of CAPRI, he objecive funcion does no compise ine-aciviy ems, i.e. no maginal coss-cos effecs, so ha he majo ineplay is due o consains. The ineacion is bes undesood by looking a he fis ode condiions of a pogamming model including PMP ems: Equaion 81 Rev j = Cos j + ac j + bc Levl The lef hand side (Rev) shows he maginal evenues, which ae ypically equal o he fixed pices imes he fixed yields plus pemiums.

86 affeced as well. The second majo link is he availabiliy of no-makeable feeding suff, and finally, less impoan oganic feilise. The basic effecs ae bes discussed wih a simple example. Assume an incease of a pe ha pemium fo sof whea, all ohe hings unchanged. Wha will happen in he model? The inceased pemium will lead o an imbalance beween maginal evenues (= yield imes pices plus pemium) and maginal coss (=accouning coss, esouce use cos, non-linea coss). In ode o close he gap, as maginal evenues ae fixed, he aea unde sof whea will be inceased unil maginal coss of poducing sof whea have inceased o a poin whee hey ae again equal o maginal evenues. As he maginal coss linked o he non-linea cos funcion ( ac j + bc jlevl j ) ae inceasing in aciviy levels, inceasing he aea unde sof whea will hence educe ha gap. A he same ime, as he land balance mus be kep closed, ohe cop aciviies mus be educed. The non-linea cos funcion will fo hese cops now povoke a counevailing effec: educing he aciviy levels of compeing cops will lead o lowe coss fo hese cops. Wih maginal evenues (Rev) and accouning coss (Cos) fixed, ha will equie he shadow pice λ of he land balance o incease. Wha will be he impac on animal aciviies? Again, he shadow pice of he land balance will be cucial. Fo aciviies poducing non-makeable feed, maginal evenues ae no defined as pices imes yields, bu as inenal feed value imes pices. The inenal feed value is deemined as he subsiuion value of non-makeable fodde agains ohe feeding suff, and depends on hei nuien conen and fuhe feed esicions. Inceasing he shadow pice of land will hence eihe equie o decease ohe coss in poducing fodde o o incease he inenal maginal evenues. Saing i he ohe way aound a high shadow pice of land endes non-makeable fodde less compeiive compaed o ohe feeding suff. As feed coss ae howeve vey slighly inceasing in quaniies fed pe head, feed coss fo animals will incease. Bu as hei seveal equiemen consains involved, some feeding suff may incease and ohe decease. Clealy, he highe he shae of non-makeable fodde in he mix fo a ceain animal ype, he highe he effec. As maginal feed coss will incease, and maginal evenues fo he animal pocess ae no changing, ohe maginal coss in animal poducion need o be educed, and again he non-linea cos funcion will be he cucial pa, as he maginal cos elaed o i will decease if hed sizes dop. To summaize he supply esponse, inceasing pemiums fo a cop will hence incease he copping shae of ha cop, educe he shae of ohe cops, incease he shadow pice of land, lead o less fodde poducion, highe fodde coss and hus educed hed size of animals. Wha will be he impacs coveed by he make? The changes in hecaes will lead o inceased supply of he cop wih he highe pemium and less supply of all ohe cops a given pices, i.e. one upwad and many downwad shifs of he supply cuves. Equally, supply cuves fo animal poducs will shif downwads. On he ohe hand, some feed demand cuve will shif as well, some upwad, ohe downwad. These shifs will move he make module away fom he fome fixed poins whee make balances wee closed. Fo he cop poduc wih he inceased pemiums, inceased supply plus some changes in feed will mos pobably lead o lowe pices, wheeas pices of ohe cops will mos pobably incease. Tha will equie new adjusmens duing he nex ieaion whee he supply models ae solved, wih o a ceain exen counevailing effecs. Page 86 of 133

The individual egional models may sell o buy young animals in unlimied quaniies a fixed pices duing each ieaion. The make module mus hence geneae pices which lead o an equilibaion of egions wih excess demand and such wih excess supply of young animals. The fis ials wee based on a simple algoihm which was changing pices as a funcion of excess demand o supply a Euopean level. Howeve especially due o he high inedependencies inside he cale chain, hee ae impoan cosspice effecs, which could no be soed ou wih a simple appoach. Tha lef he eam wih wo possible compeios: a kind of muli-commodiy model fo young animals, whee he paamees would need o be esimaed fom simulaion expeimens wih he egional supply models, o a famewok building diecly on he egional pogamming models.

Insead, he Inpu/Oupu coefficiens and all ohe coefficiens appeaing in he consains of he egional pogamming models ae aggegaed o Membe Sae level using aciviy levels as weighs. The esuling models ae hence sucually idenical o he egional models and compise a echnology equal o he weighed aveage ove all egions in ha Membe Saes. Due o he ypical aggegaion bias, hese Membe Sae models will howeve pefom diffeenly in a simulaion fom solving all egional models and hen aggegaing he esuls. Moe specifically, hey will even no epoduce he soluion obained fom he egional models a cuen pices.

In ode o do so, calibaion bounds ae inoduced aound he aggegaed esuls fo he aciviy levels and he feeding aciviies. Equally, a egionally weighed aveage fo shadow pices of gassland, aable land and he milk quoas is calculaed and added o he coss of he elaed poducion aciviies.

The shadow pices of hese consains a he opimal soluion hen define he pices fo young animals. 5.4 Make module fo agiculual oupus Oveview on he make model Wheeas he oulay of he supply module has no changed a lo since he CAPRI pojec ended in 1999, he make module was compleely evised. Even if seveal independen simulaion sysems fo agiculual wold makes ae available as OECD s AgLink, he FAPRI sysem a he Univesiy of Missoui o he WATSIM 26 sysem a Bonn Univesiy, i was sill consideed necessay o have an independen make module fo CAPRI. 26 In he beginning, he CAPRI make pa daw on he daa base fom he WATSIM modelling sysem. As he lae is no longe acive, he CAPRI make pa has become an independen wold ade model fo agiculual poducs. Page 92 of 133

93 The CAPRI make module can be chaaceised as a ecusive-dynamic, saic, paial, spaial, global equilibium model fo mos agiculual pimay and some seconday poducs, in oal abou 40 commodiies. The ecusive-dynamic aspec is cuenly only capued in a paial adjusmen appoach on he supply side. I is saic as sochasic effecs ae no coveed and paial as i excludes faco makes, non-agiculual poducs and some agiculual poducs as flowes. I is spaial as i includes bi-laeal ade flows and he elaed ade policy insumens beween he ade blocks in he model. The em paial equilibium model o muli-commodiy model sands fo a class of models wien in physical and valued ems. Demand and supply quaniies ae endogenous in ha model ype and diven by behavioual funcions depending on endogenous pices. Pices in diffeen egions ae linked via a pice ansmission funcion, which capues e.g. he effec of impo aiffs o expo subsidies. Pices in diffeen makes (beef mea and pok mea) in any one egion ae linked via coss-pice ems in he behavioual funcions. These models do no equie an objecive funcion; insead hei soluion is a fix poin o a squae sysem of equaions which compises he same numbe of endogenous vaiables as equaions. The CAPRI make module beaks down he wold ino 40 counies o couny aggegaes, each feauing sysems of supply, human consumpion, feed and pocessing funcions. The paamees of hese funcions ae deived fom elasiciies boowed fom ohe sudies and modelling sysems, and calibaed o pojeced quaniies and pices in he simulaion yea. The choice of flexible funcional foms (nomalised quadaic fo feed and pocessing demand as well as fo supply, Genealised Leonief Expendiue funcion fo human consumpion) and imposiion of esicions (homogeneiy of degee zeo in pices, symmey, coec cuvaue, addiiviy) ensue egulaiy as discussed below. Accodingly, he sysem allows fo he calculaion of welfae changes fo he diffeen agens epesened in he make model. Some of he 40 counies ae blocked o couny aggegaes wih a unifom bode poecion, and bilaeal ade flows ae modelled solely beween hese blocks. Such blocks ae he EU15, EU10, Medieanean and Mecosu counies and an aggegae of Bulgaia and Romania. All ohe counies o couny aggegaes ae idenical o a ade block in he model. Policy insumens in he make module include (bi)laeal aiffs and Poduce/Consume Subsidy Equivalen pice wedges (PSE/CSE). Taiff Rae Quoas (TRQs) ae inegaed in he modelling sysem, as ae inevenion sock changes and subsidised expos unde WTO commimen esicions fo he EU.

The appoach of he CAPRI make module Muli-commodiy models ae as aleady menioned above a wide-spead ype of agiculual seco models. Thee ae wo ypes of such models, wih a somewha diffeen hisoy. The fis ype could be labelled emplae models, and is fis example is Swopsim. Templae models use sucually idenical equaions fo each poduc and egion, so ha diffeences beween makes ae expessed in paamees. Typically, hese paamees ae eihe based on lieaue eseach, boowed fom ohe models o simply se by he eseache and ae fiendly emed as being synheic. Domesic policies in emplae models ae ypically expessed by pice wedges beween make and poduce especively consume pices, ofen using he PSE/CSE concep of he OECD. Wheeas emplae models applied in he beginning ahe simple funcional foms as consan elasiciy double-logs in Swopsim o WATSIM -, since some yeas flexible funcional foms ae in vogue, ofen combined wih a calibaion algoihm which ensues ha he paamee ses ae in line wih micoeconomic heoy. The flexible funcional foms combined wih he calibaion algoihm allow fo a se of paamees wih idenical poin elasiciies o any obseved heoy consisen behaviou which a he same ime ecoves quaniies a one poin of obseved pices and income. Ensuing ha paamees ae in line wih pofi especively uiliy maximisaion allows fo a welfae analysis of esuls. Even if using a diffeen mehodology (explici echnology, inclusion of faco makes ec.), i should be menioned ha Compuable Geneal Equilibium models ae emplae models as well in he sense ha hey use an idenical equaion sucue fo all poducs and egions. Equally, hey ae in line wih micoeconomic heoy. The second ype of model is olde and did emege fom economeically esimaed singlemake models linked ogehe he mos pominen example being he FAPRI modelling sysem. The obvious advanages of ha appoach ae fisly he flexibiliy o use any funcional elaion allowing fo a good fi ex-pos, secondly ha he economeically esimaed paamees ae ooed in obseved behaviou and hidly, ha he funcional fom used in simulaions is idenically o he one used in paamee esimaion. The downside is he fac ha paamees ae ypically no esimaed subjec o egulaiy condiions and will likely violae some condiions fom mico-heoy. Consequenly, hese models ae ypically no used fo welfae analysis. Besides FAPRI, ohe examples of such models ae AgLink a he OECD o he se of models emeging fom AgMemod. The CAPRI make module is a emplae model using flexible funcional foms. The eason is obvious: i is simply impossible o esimae he behavioual equaions fo abou 40 poducs and 40 counies o couny blocks wold wide wih he esouce available o he CAPRI eam. Insead, he emplae appoach ensues ha he same easoning is applied acoss he boad, and he flexible funcional foms allow fo capuing o a lage degee egion and poduc specificiies. As such, he esuls fom economeic analysis o even complee paamees ses fom ohe models could be mapped ino he CAPRI make model. Page 95 of 133

96 5.4.3 Behavioual equaions fo supply and feed demand Supply fo each agiculual oupu i and egion (EU Membe Saes o egional aggegae) is modelled by a supply funcion deived fom a nomalised quadaic pofi funcion via he envelope heoem. Supply depends on poduce pices ppi nomalised wih a pice index. The pice index elaes o all hose goods eihe inpus o oupus which ae no explicily modelled in he sysem: Equaion 98 supply = as + j bs j, ppi p j, index. Supply cuves fo he EU Membe Saes, Noway, Bulgaia and Romania ae calibaed in each ieaion o he las oupu pice veco used in he supply model and he aggegaed supply esuls a Membe Sae level, by shifing he consan ems as.

Howeve no poduce pices, bu aw poduc pices am1p deemined by he Amingon op level aggegao dive feed demand feed, combined wih changes in he supply of animal poducs weighed wih feed use facos w: Equaion 99 feed = af + j bf j, am1 p p index. j, i w i supply supply Feed use does hence popoionally incease if he supply of mea o milk is inceased, and pice changes dive subsiuion inside of he feed mix. I is planned o eplace ha sysem in he nea fuue by explici enegy and poein equiemen balances linked o enegy and poein shadow pices which will define hen feed incenive pices, as i is aleady ealised fo he fa and poein balances fo daiy poducs. As fo supply, feed demand cuves fo he EU Membe Saes, Noway, Bulgaia and Romania ae calibaed in each ieaion o he las oupu pice veco used in he supply model and he aggegaed feed demand a Membe Sae level, by shifing he consan ems af Behavioual equaions fo final demand The final demand funcions ae based on he following family of indiec uiliy funcions depending on consume pices cpi and pe capia income y 28 whee G and F ae funcions of degee zeo in pices (RYAN & WALES 1996) which will be defined below: Equaion 100 G U ( cpi y) = ( y F) Using Roy s ideniy, he following pe capia Mashallian demands PeCap ae deived: i cal i 28 Pe capia income and oal expendiue ae used as synonyms in he following as he demand is cove all goods and hus exhaus available income.

97 Gii Equaion 101 PeCap = F + ( y F ) i i G whee he F i and G i ae he fis deivaive of F and G vesus own pices. The funcion F is defined as follows: Equaion 102 F = d i i cpi i whee he d i epesen he consan ems of he Mashallian demands and can be inepeed as minimum commimen levels o consumpion quaniies independen of pices and income. The em in backes in he pe capia demands in Equaion 101 above hence capues he expendiue emaining afe he value F of pice and income independen commimens d had been subaced fom available income y. The funcion G, based on he Genealised Leonief fomulaion: Equaion 103 G = i j bd ij cpi i cpi wih he deivaive of G vesus he own pice is labelled Gi and defined as: Equaion 104 Gi j = i bd ij cpi i cpi Symmey is guaaneed by a symmeic bd maix descibing he pice dependen ems, coec cuvaue by non-negaive he off-diagonal elemens of bd, adding up is auomaically a( x) given, as Eule s Law fo a homogenous funcion of degee one a( x) = xi, leads i xi o: Equaion 105 i PeCap i cpi i j j Gicpii i = ( y F ) + dicpii G i, G = ( y F) + F = y G and homogeneiy is guaaneed by he funcional foms as well. The expendiue funcion can be deived fom he indiec uiliy funcions and gives: Equaion 106 G y = e( U, y) = F U ( cp y) The funcion is only semi-flexible as he non-negaiviy imposed on he off-diagonal elemens ensuing coec cuvaue will exclude Hicksian complemenaiy, a esicion no deemed impoan in he ligh of he poduc lis coveed. Human consumpion hcom is simply he sum of populaion pop muliplied wih he pe capia demands: Equaion 107 hcom = pop pecap Page 97 of 133

Consequenly, he pocessing demand poc depends on pocessing magins pocmag which ae diffeences beween he value of he oupus (oil and cake) pe uni of oilseed pocessed and he value of he oilseed inpued: Equaion 108 poc = ac + j bc j, pocmag p index. whee he pocessing magin is defined fom he poduce pices ppi and cushing coefficiens deived fom obseved supply quaniies as: Equaion 109 pocmag seed, = ppi + ppi + ppi seed, seed cak, seed oil, j, supply supply supply supply bas seed cak, bas seed, bas seed oil, bas seed, Finally, oupu of oils and cakes supply depends on he pocessed quaniies poc of he oilseeds and he cushing coefficiens: Equaion 110 supply supply cake, oil, = = poc poc seed, seed, supply supply supply supply bas seed cak, bas seed, bas oil cak, bas seed, Special aenion is given o he pocessing sage of daiy poducs fo he EU Membe saes. Fis of all, balancing equaions fo fa and poein ensue ha he pocessed poducs use up exacly he amoun of fa and poein compised in he aw milk.

99 5.4.6 Tade flows and he Amingon assumpion The Amingon 29 assumpion dives he composiion of demand fom domesic sales and he diffeen impo oigins depending on pice elaions and hus deemines bilaeal ade flows. The Amingon assumpion is fequenly used in ha conex, and e.g. applied in mos Compuable Geneal Equilibium models o descibe he subsiuion beween domesic sales and impos. The undelying easoning is ha of a wo-sage demand sysem. A he uppe level, demand fo poducs as whea, pok ec. is deemined as a funcion of pices and income see above. These pices ae a weighed aveage of poducs fom diffeen egional oigins. A he lowe level, he composiion of demand pe poduc i in egion semming fom diffeen oigins 1 is deemined based on a CES uiliy funcion: Equaion 113 U i, = α δ 1M 1 ρ 1 whee U denoes uiliy in egion and fo poduc i due o consumpion of he impo quaniies M semming fom he diffeen oigins 1. If is equal 1, M denoes domesic sales. δ ae he so-called shae paamees, α is called he shif-paamee and ρ is a paamee deived fom he subsiuion elasiciy. Deiving he fis ode condiions fo uiliy maximisaion unde budge consains leads afe some e-aangemens o he following elaion beween impoed quaniies M: Equaion 114 M M 1 2 δ = δ 1 2 P 2 P 1 1, i ( 1+ ρ ) whee he em 1 ( 1+ρ ) denoes he subsiuion elasiciy. As seen fom he equaion, impos fom egion 1 will incease if is compeiiveness inceases eihe because of a lowe pice in 1 o a highe pice 2. The esuling changes in he composiions of impos incease wih he size of he elaed shae paamee δ 1 and wih he size of he subsiuion elasiciy. The CES uiliy funcion is ahe esicive as i has solely one paamee δ pe impo flow. The subsiuion elasiciy 1 ( 1+ρ ) is se exogenously. The δ paamees ae deemined when calibaing he model o known impo flows, wheeas α is used o mee he known quaniies in he calibaion poin. The model compises a wo sage Amingon sysem (see below): on he op level, he composiion of oal demand fom impos and domesic sales is deemined, as a funcion of he elaion beween he inenal make pice and he aveage impo pice. The lowe sage deemines he impo shaes fom diffeen oigins. The subsiuion elasiciy on he op level sage is smalle han fo he second one, i.e. we assume ha consumes will be less esponsive egading subsiuion beween domesic and impoed goods compaed o changes in beween impoed goods. The following able shows he subsiuion elasiciies used fo he diffeen poduc goups. Compaed o mos ohe sudies, we oped fo a ahe elasic subsiuion beween poducs fom diffeen oigins, as agiculual poducs ae geneally moe unifom hen aggegaed poduc goups, as hey can be found e.g. in CGE models., i 1 ρ, i 29 Amingon, Paul S.

Tha second poblem is healed by e-coecing in he esul lising o physical quaniies. Lile empiical wok can be found egading he esimaion of he funcional paamees of Amingon sysems.

The willingness o pay of consumes and hus he pice paid is somewhee beween he bode plus he in-quoa aiff and he bode pice plus he MFN aiff.
