Using agricultural trade and production data, this thesis uses an existing model approach to study the value of pollination services in agricultural trade. The student shall implement the model approach in GAMS (or R/Phyton) and replicate the existing model results, as well extend the analysis with additional scenarios of possible changes in pollinator populations.

Skills needed: Sound understanding of basic microeconomic theory and sectoral changes in a partial-equilibrium model; Skills in using either GAMS, R, Phyton
