Overview

Observational analysis estimates environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow prices in Ontario dairy farms, indicating improved sustainability practices.

Key Points

  • Environmentally adjusted productivity growth exceeds unadjusted productivity growth, suggesting intensified sustainability efforts.
  • GHG emissions per cow rise with higher milk yields, but emission intensity decreases, highlighting a complex relationship.
  • Technological change plays a significant role in productivity growth, outweighing efficiency changes in Ontario dairy farms.
  • The estimated shadow price for GHG emissions stands at CAN$286 per metric ton, influencing farm economic decisions.
