In most studies, single policy reaction variables are explained through a number of personal, family or structural variables. The objective of this paper is to identify consistent “strategic change profiles” across EU farm (-households), based on stated intentions of change under different policy scenarios. The analysis is carried out using a multinomial logit model (MNL) over a sample of over 2000 farms. Qualitative (contract and chain-based) expansion strategies are better explained than exit and quantitative expansion strategies. The single farm payment amount, labour and living on farm are the most relevant and consistent explanatory variables.

Abstract
In most studies, single policy reaction variables are explained through a number of personal, family or structural variables. The objective of this paper is to identify consistent “strategic change profiles” across EU farm (-households), based on stated intentions of change under different policy scenarios. The analysis is carried out using a multinomial logit model (MNL) over a sample of over 2000 farms. Qualitative (contract and chain-based) expansion strategies are better explained than exit and quantitative expansion strategies. The single farm payment amount, labour and living on farm are the most relevant and consistent explanatory variables.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
