- This paper presents a novel approach for generating information for regulatory and policy analysis, based on farmers' adoption of weed control technology. A systems approach and a simulation model, WISH, are used to generate cost and risk information on 221 weed control strategies. Empirical results are summarized into “efficient frontiers”. Environmental policies simulated are various bans on agri-chemicals. Of particular interest are the predicted shifts in risk and cost and associated substitutions under policies of banning atrazine, all triazines and broadcast application technology.
