| Title: | Using different groups of technological progress as input for sector modeling |
| Authors: | Vander Vennet, B.
Lauwers, Ludwig H. |
| Keywords: | technology
sector modeling
induced innovation |
| Issue Date: | 2008 |
| Abstract: | This poster aims at describing different
groups of technology use within a farm population and
at delivering realistic prognoses of their future status
as input for sector modeling. This because sector
models are in many cases not based on reasonable
technological progress estimations or too simplified as
normative estimation or seen as mere extrapolation of
past evolutions.
The classification and utilization of technology
groups is done for livestock activities, but illustrated
hereafter for the finishing pigs activities. The research
is worked out in three phases:
• Organizational aspects of tuning information
demand and supply;
• Identification of technology groups;
• Evolution of technology groups.
Following techniques are used to identify the
technology groups:
Stochastic frontier analysis, cluster analysis and others.
The results can be used in sector models to measure the
impact of induced innovation on different technology
groups. |
