Data and Software

Our vision is to make data, code, software and other information generated in our research available to other researchers and the public as often as possible. We formulated these vision also in articles, see for example:

Finger, R., Henningsen, A., Höhler, J., Huber, R., Rommel, J. and Grebitus, C., 2025. Open science in agricultural economics. Q open, 5(3), p.qoae029 here external page >>

Datasets

A large number of datasets is made freely accessible via the ETH Research Collection. Please find an overview here >>

Moreover, the AECP group aims to publish data articles to facilitate re-use of datasets. Please find an overview here >>

Software and Models   

Developed software and models created in the AECP Group are freely accessible either via the ETH Research Collection >> and/or on our Github site external page >>

Mathematical programming models such as farm-level or agent-based models are important tools for simulating farmers’ behaviour in response to changing environmental, economic, or institutional conditions and policies. FARMIND is an agent-based model for the simulation of farm level decision-making developed by the Agricultural Economics and Policy Group at ETH Zurich
