Studies in the application of public economics to agriculture and the natural resource sector

Abstract

The research reported here is mainly composed of a collection of papers published over the period 1971-75. There is an inevitable temptation in a submission of this type to supplement and make additions to the published studies, particularly in those instances where a period of several years has elapsed since the date of publication of a paper. However, with only two exceptions which are discussed below, I have chosen not to modify or add to the papers which have been published or are in the course of publication.
