How much carbon can you really sequester with subsidies in the land use sector once you factor in ALL costs?

This question led me and co-authors to explore an often-overlooked component in climate mitigation modeling studies in the land use sector: #transactioncosts, i.e. landowner's expenses for planning, compliance, and acquiring information when applying for subsidies.

Sounds perfect: import food instead of forcing yourself to grow out in places poorly suited for it. With the surplus, buy enough rice to feed everyone. Maybe we should apply this logic to almond growers in California. #comparativeAdvantage #trade #economics
Also, since chips are a higher value use for water, the solution is Coasian, compensating farmers to forego their #propertyRights to water with the government coordinating the bargaining to reduce #transactionCosts.

@douginamug The internal org structure stuff does sound pretty good for a Labor econ class. I've received the impression that the labor econ class at my uni deals more with within-market Dynamics, not within-firm, but I could be wrong.

I would love to see an overlap between Industrial Organizational (IO) #Psychology and IO Econ, if only to see discussions of #externalities / #transactionCosts in firm behavior.
