Agricultural Economics provides opportunities for students to learn and use advanced theoretical and empirical methods in applied economics. Research is applied to real world problems in the multifaceted agri-food sector which encompasses issues in resource management, environmental sustainability, production economics, supply chains, regulation, transport, food quality and safety, rural development, innovation management, public policy and international trade. Use advanced theoretical and empirical methods in applied economics to study real world problems in the field of agriculture and food.
Our department's areas of specialization are: natural resource economics; environmental sustainability and evaluation; international trade policy; supply chain management; public policy and regulation; farm business management; economics of technological change; rural development; agri-food marketing; food safety and quality; and agricultural production economics.
Research Facilities: The U of S is home to many specialized research facilities to help you with your project. The Canadian Rural Economy Research lab uses state of the art GIS packages to study rural Canada. The Social Sciences Research Laboratories provide access to shared research infrastructure and technical support while enabling community engaged research.
Our Community: Our department has a strong relationship with our provincial government and other academic units on campus such as the Global Institutes for Water and Food Security, the Indigenous Land Management Institute, and the Sustainable Beef Systems Research Group. These relationships will connect you and your research with others in related fields. We also have a strong tie to the National Aboriginal Land Managers Association and Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. These relationships allow us to partner with Indigenous peoples locally and across the country. Research supervisors: It is not necessary to find a potential supervisor before you begin an application. The list below though may be helpful to learn about the research interests of our faculty.
