Essays on mixed oligopoly and agricultural R&D. - 173 p.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Michigan State University, 2002.

Three essays are presented which explore how micro level interactions between public and private research and development (R&D) translate into observable macro effects. The framework of analysis is a mixed oligopoly model where a welfare maximizing public firm is in competition with a profit-maximizing firm. Careful attention is paid to how asymmetric objectives, spillovers and appropriability of research exert strong influences on the behavior of competing firms.

520 $a Three essays are presented which explore how micro level interactions between public and private research and development (R&D) translate into observable macro effects. The framework of analysis is a mixed oligopoly model where a welfare maximizing public firm is in competition with a profit-maximizing firm. Careful attention is paid to how asymmetric objectives, spillovers and appropriability of research exert strong influences on the behavior of competing firms.
520 $a The motivations for the dissertation are set out in the introductory chapter. In the first essay, a simple model of an R&D race between a public and private firm is presented. The essay presents three specifications of the general model, and seeks to define and differentiate between the effects of public research appropriability and research spillovers. In the second essay, the nature of the observed market structure and R&D competition in genomics research is used as the basis for a comparative analysis of research under a mixed oligopoly, pure oligopoly and monopoly when the timing of the innovation outcome is uncertain (as in an R&D race), the winner-take-all assumption is relaxed and the profits in later stages are a function of the R&D expenditures of prior stages. In the third and final essay, cooperative and noncooperative behavior in the context of mixed oligopoly models is examined. The essay attempts to investigate the reasons for the relatively small number of partnerships between public and private firms in spite of institutional arrangements that encourage them; and explores whether partnerships with private firms are inconsistent with the objective of a welfare maximizing public-sector firm. In particular we consider cooperative and noncooperative R&D between a public sector and private firm in a two-stage model where research in the first stage is followed by further research and production in the second stage.
520 $a The results of the models are used to understand the changing market structure of the agriculture research and development and their implications. The role of a competitive public sector firm in agricultural R&D is highlighted and its welfare effects studied.
