Agricultural Economics

What is Agricultural Economics

Agricultural economics is a subfield of applied economics that focuses on applying economic theory to optimize the production and distribution of food and fiber products. It is considered to be an applied discipline of economics. Agricultural economics started out as a subfield of economics that focused exclusively on issues related to land consumption. The goal was to increase the agricultural output while minimizing the negative impact on the ecosystem of the soil. The field of study grew over the 20th century, and its current scope encompasses a far wider range of topics than it did in the past. The modern study of agricultural economics encompasses a wide range of application areas, many of which overlap significantly with those of traditional economics. Research in the fields of economics, econometrics, development economics, and environmental economics have all benefited significantly from the contributions made by agricultural economists. The economics of agriculture has an impact not only on food policy but also on agricultural policy and environmental policy.
