II. EXPERIMENT FILES

To replicate the experiments go to "SOLVE" in RunGTAP, and load one of the experiments listed below:

exp1A: first part of experiment E1: output-augmenting technical change in the crops sector of Australasia.

exp1B: second part of experiment E1: output-augmenting technical change in the crops sector of North America.

exp1C: third part of experiment E1: output-augmenting technical change in the crops sector of Southeast Asia.

exp2: experiment E2: output-augmenting technical change in the crops sectors of Australasia, North America and Southeast 	Asia. This is the case where research reduces costs not only in the innovating country, but also leads to spillovers that reduce costs in other regions.

exp3: experiment E3a: a 2% output augmenting technical change in the crops sector of all regions except Australasia.

exp3: experiment E3b: a 2% output augmenting technical change in the crops sector of all regions except North America.

exp3C: experiment E3c: a 2% output augmenting technical change in the crops sector of all regions except Southeast Asia.

exp4A: experiments E4a and B2: a one percent cost reduction in the North American processed food sector from a labor-augmenting technical change.

exp4B: experiment E4b: a one percent cost reduction in the processed food sector of all regions except North America from a labor-augmenting technical change.

exp4C: experiment E4c: a one percent cost reduction in the processed food sector of all regions from a labor-augmenting technical change.

expB1: experiment B1: a one percent cost reduction in the North American food sector from technical change which is neutral / output-augmenting.

expB3: experiment B3: a one percent cost reduction in the North American food sector from livestock-augmenting technical change

expB4: experiment B4: a one percent cost reduction in the North American food sector from services-augmenting technical change
