The economics of food systems
Marc Bellemare’s research is at the intersection of agricultural economics, food policy, international development, and applied econometrics. He has studied the poverty-reduction potential of agricultural value chains in low- and middle-income countries, the consequences of high and volatile food prices on welfare, and agricultural and food policy. In addition to making highly influential contributions to the economics of food systems, he has made significant contributions to the empirical methods used by economists and other social scientists.
