Biography

I am an applied economics researcher focusing on agri-environmental sustainability and sustainable resource use in agricultural production.
Specifically, my research includes (1) productivity and ecological efficiency analysis with an emphasis on sustainable resource use, employing Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA); (2) consumer demand system analysis focusing on the transition to sustainable consumption in Sweden; (3) cost-benefit analysis at the farm level using a stochastic partial budgeting approach; and (4) analysis of farmers' attitudes and perceptions toward adopting eco-friendly production methods, using Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE) models.
