Welcome from the President
John Quiggin |
The Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society (AARES) is an independent association of persons and organisations interested in agricultural, resource and environmental economics. Information about how to join the Society can be found here.
AARES is unique in its coverage of advanced theoretical work, empirically based applied analysis and application to current policy issues. Issues central to AARES concerns, including climate change, water policy, resource taxation and global food supplies, have never been more relevant or topical. So, whether you are an academic researcher, an applied economist or someone involved in the major policy issues of the day, there are lots of reasons to join AARES.
It’s already a good time to start thinking about papers and symposium proposals for the 2012 AARES Conference, to be held in Fremantle. It’s our 56th, which makes the Conference exactly as old as I am!
