In this paper, we study the viability of price subsidies and certain other policies with respect to increasing the production of biofuel crops. First, we estimate the elasticity of the supply of Japanese agriculture with respect to price (inclusive of the subsidy for each unit of production). For this purpose, we use a longitudinal database of 1822 municipalities that covers all 47 prefectures of Japan. This database includes information about the production of 116 crops and their respective revenues, including subsidies. Using panel data regression techniques, we determine that although the long-run supply of certain crops is highly elastic, this supply is highly inelastic if the production of other crops is held constant. Therefore, an increase in the demand for biofuel crops will cause substantial price increases of agricultural products, largely crowding out the demand for food crops. We then discuss the viability of encouraging various agricultural practices, such as multiple cropping and the cultivation of recently abandoned land. Instead of using abandoned land, which produces a lower yield and requires abundant labor, we recommend a multiple cropping system that involves the rotation of rice and wheat. Although these measures will increase biofuel crop production to a certain extent in the short run, full-scale biofuel crop production can only take place after substantial reforms are implemented to increase the production capacity of the Japanese agricultural sector.","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_12_description_7":{"attribute_name":"内容記述","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"JEL Classification Codes: Q18, Q42, Q53","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_12_description_8":{"attribute_name":"分野","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"経済学 / Economics","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_12_identifier_registration":{"attribute_name":"ID登録","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_identifier_reg_text":"10.24545/00001097","subitem_identifier_reg_type":"JaLC"}]},"item_12_publisher_12":{"attribute_name":"出版者","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_publisher":"GRIPS Policy Research Center ","subitem_publisher_language":"en"}]},"item_12_relation_16":{"attribute_name":"関連サイト","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_relation_name":[{"subitem_relation_name_text":"https://ideas.repec.org/p/ngi/dpaper/12-10.html"}],"subitem_relation_type":"isIdenticalTo","subitem_relation_type_id":{"subitem_relation_type_id_text":"https://ideas.repec.org/p/ngi/dpaper/12-10.html","subitem_relation_type_select":"URI"}}]},"item_12_text_10":{"attribute_name":"発行年","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_value":"2012-09"}]},"item_12_text_5":{"attribute_name":"著者所属","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_value":"農業環境技術研究所 / National Institute for Agro-Environmental Sciences (NIAES)"},{"subitem_text_value":"政策研究大学院大学 / National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies"}]},"item_12_version_type_19":{"attribute_name":"著者版フラグ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_ab4af688f83e57aa","subitem_version_type":"AM"}]},"item_1693541285410":{"attribute_name":"書誌情報","attribute_value_mlt":[{"bibliographicIssueDates":{"bibliographicIssueDate":"2012-09-21","bibliographicIssueDateType":"Issued"},"bibliographicVolumeNumber":"DP12-10","bibliographic_titles":[{"bibliographic_title":"GRIPS Discussion Papers","bibliographic_titleLang":"en"}]}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"LEON, Ai","creatorNameLang":"en"}]},{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"LEON-GONZALEZ, Roberto","creatorNameLang":"en"}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_access","filename":"DP12-10.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"282.8 kB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_note","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"DP12-10.pdf","url":"https://grips.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/1097/files/DP12-10.pdf"},"version_id":"e5dca8b3-e25d-4315-b56d-ccc79f9ce48b"}]},"item_keyword":{"attribute_name":"キーワード","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"Biofuel Crop Production","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Production Subsidies","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Elasticity of Supply","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Agricultural Policy","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Longitudinal Data","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"technical report"}]},"item_title":"The Scope for Increasing Biofuel Crop Production in Japan: An Analysis of Alternative Policies","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"The Scope for Increasing Biofuel Crop Production in Japan: An Analysis of Alternative Policies","subitem_title_language":"en"}]},"item_type_id":"12","owner":"16","path":["22"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"PubDate","attribute_value":"2012-09-21"},"publish_date":"2012-09-21","publish_status":"0","recid":"1097","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["The Scope for Increasing Biofuel Crop Production in Japan: An Analysis of Alternative Policies"],"weko_creator_id":"16","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2023-11-20T08:53:50.689534+00:00"}
