Multi-country stated preferences choice analysis for fresh tomatoes (2020)
Journal Article
De Salvo, M., Scarpa, R., Capitello, R., & Begalli, D. (2020). Multi-country stated preferences choice analysis for fresh tomatoes. Bio-based and Applied Economics, 9(3), 241-262. https://doi.org/10.13128/bae-7928

In this study we investigate consumers’ preferences for fresh tomato attributes in four European countries by assessing and comparing Marginal Willingness-To-Pay (MWTP) estimates from panel Mixed Logit (MXL) models with utility specifications in the...

Resolvable and near-epistemic uncertainty in stated preference for olive oil: an empirical exploration (2020)
Journal Article
Scarpa, R., Bazzani, C., Begalli, D., & Capitello, R. (2021). Resolvable and near-epistemic uncertainty in stated preference for olive oil: an empirical exploration. Journal of Agricultural Economics, 72(2), 335-369. https://doi.org/10.1111/1477-9552.12398

We elicit subjective probabilities of choice using a choice experiment designed to study preferences of German consumers for high quality Italian extra‐virgin olive oils. We develop an econometric framework to address the issues of resolvable and nea...

Do city dwellers care about peri-urban land use? The case of environment-friendly agriculture around Milan (2020)
Journal Article
Arata, L., Guastella, G., Pareglio, S., Scarpa, R., & Sckokai, P. (2021). Do city dwellers care about peri-urban land use? The case of environment-friendly agriculture around Milan. Journal of Environmental Planning and Management, 64(6), 1044-1066. https://doi.org/10.1080/09640568.2020.1799765

Undeveloped land adjacent to urban areas has a strong potential to generate high amenity values to urban dwellers via the adoption of environment-friendly agricultural practices. Yet, there is a lack of specific policy measures tailored to unlock suc... Read More about Do city dwellers care about peri-urban land use? The case of environment-friendly agriculture around Milan.

Logit Mixed Logit Under Asymmetry and Multimodality of WTP: a Monte Carlo Evaluation (2020)
Journal Article
Scarpa, R., Franceschinis, C., & Thiene, M. (2021). Logit Mixed Logit Under Asymmetry and Multimodality of WTP: a Monte Carlo Evaluation. American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 103(2), 643-662. https://doi.org/10.1111/ajae.12122

The logit‐mixed logit (LML) model advances choice modeling by generalizing previous parametric and semi‐nonparametric specifications and allowing retrieval of flexible taste distributions. Using standard operating conditions in the field, we report r... Read More about Logit Mixed Logit Under Asymmetry and Multimodality of WTP: a Monte Carlo Evaluation.
