  • Sarmiento, Camilo

Abstract

This paper develops a model of optimal allocation of GM and non-GM crops under contamination risk. The model is used to compare the producer optimal crop allocation at equilibrium to the social efficient crop allocation. From the socially optimum conditions, the paper identifies production environments under which GM crops are more likely to be overplanted.
