Municipality-level estimates of agricultural land prices in Germany: applying the small area estimation method
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Applied Economics"
DOI: 10.1080/00036846.2024.2449207
Abstract: ABSTRACT Agricultural land prices in Germany exhibit considerable regional heterogeneity, yet publicly accessible data are typically aggregated at the state level, obscuring small-scale geographic variations. Obtaining reliable estimates at a small-scale geographic level is challenging… read more here.
