Location Of Production And Endogenous Water Quality Regulation: A Look At The U.S. Hog Industry

Author

  • Metcalfe, Mark R.

Abstract

This paper examines the effect of state regulation of water quality on the location of hog production across states in the US. A qualitative measure is developed from states' water quality legislation in 1994 and 1998. No evidence is found that increased stringency is detrimental to hog production.
