A Standard CGE Model in GAMS by Hans Löfgren, Rebecca Lee Harris, Sherman Robinson

A Standard Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) Model in GAMS by Hans Löfgren, Rebecca Lee Harris, Sherman Robinson with the assistance from Marcelle Thomas and Moataz El-Said

  • Contents: The purpose of this manual is to contribute to and facilitate the use of computable general equilibrium (CGE) models in the analysis of issues related to food policy in developing countries. The volume includes a detailed presentation of a static “standard” CGE model and its required database and incorporates features of particular importance in developing countries. The manual discusses the implementation of the model in GAMS (the General Algebraic Modeling System) and is accompanied by files that include the GAMS files for the model, sample databases, simulations, solution reports, and a social accounting matrix (SAM).
