Item The effect of organic certification on farmland value(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 2017) Boldbaatar, Munkhnasan; Chairperson, Graduate Committee: Joseph JanzenThis research considers the relationship between organic certification and farmland values. We employ the ARMS survey data from 2003 to 2011. We construct three models with different organic status classifications. We control for differences in farm type, NASS crop district, urbanization, and year fixed effects. We find that organic certification has a significant (statistically and economically) effect on farmland value. Our model suggests that a 1 percentage point increase in a farm's organic land would result a 0.23 percentage point increase in the farmland rental rate.Item Land use taxation policy and agricultural land use(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1976) Pryputniewicz, Gary ThomasItem Land utilization on the Crow Indian reservation(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1940) Runyan, Clarence S.Item Land use adjustments in Blaine, Phillips and Valley counties, Montana, 1934 to 1940(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 1941) Helburn, NicholasItem Montana agricultural land prices : an evaluation of recreational amenities and production characteristics(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 2010) Baird, Fritz Patrick; Chairperson, Graduate Committee: Gary Brester.A hedonic price regression model is used to estimate the contributions of amenities to agricultural land values.
