Steven Y. Wu joined the Department of Agricultural, Environmental, and Development Economics on Oct. 1, 2001, as assistant professor after completing his Ph.D. in Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of California, Berkeley.
Professor Wu's primary focus will be on the economics of contracts and policy analysis. Specifically, he will examine how government policies and regulations will affect contractual relationships between farmers and integrators. He will also conduct analysis of alternative policy options that may facilitate trading relationships between farmers and buyers.
In addition, he will study how contract design might affect pay and performance in trading relationships, and how alternative forms of industrial organization (e.g., vertical integration, production contracting, or spot markets) might affect the welfare of farmers and integrators.
