Iddo KanResearch InterestsMy research activities are related to the scientific areas of environmental and resource economics, agricultural economics,political economics and soil and water sciences. My expertise is in integrating natural processes into economic analyses, aiming at exploring systems involving environmental impacts with the objective of characterizing management strategies and policies under optimal or equilibrium conditions. The analytical approaches are often based on the development of programming or econometric models, which are then used for theoretical analyses and empirical applications. The research topics are diverse; they include spatial and temporal analyses of irrigation and drainage management, agricultural land-use, solid waste management, impact assessments of climate change, evaluation of external costs, rodent control by avian predators, siting noxious facilities, and water pricing in political economic systems. |
