An Examination of Farm Sector Real Asset Dynamics: 1910–85

Abstract: The dynamic response of real farm asset values to changes in net returns and interest rates is studied using vector autoregression. Results show that a shock in real asset values, real returns to assets, or real interest rates leads to a process in which real asset values overreact. In the initial period, a reaction to a shock immediately occurs followed by a continued build-up in the asset value for up to six years until finally the effect of the one-time, transitory shock begins to die out. The results sugge… Show more

“…This data set is appealing because of its length and the homogeneity of the asset being The six-month commercial paper rate is used to measure the nominal interest rate. Featherstone and Baker (1987) and Hanson and Myers (1995) also used the commercial paper rate to measure the discount rate. Falk (1992) The data series pt, dt, and rt were transformed into"" the series Adt, Adt^rt, and St ( = Pt -dt) and then fit to a second-order VAR.…”

“…Burt (1986) concludes that deviations of farmland price from its fundamental path can be explained in terms of overreaction to rent movements. Featherstone and Baker (1987), on the other hand, conclude that these deviations are largely determined by purely speculative forces, i.e., by fads. No one, however, has attempted to quantify the fad component to help resolve this basic issue.…”
