Lecture 02 – Understanding land rents gradients
Highest producing land, generates the highest value (Ricardo’s theory of production/corn)
Might there be a situation where land has no value?
- Land that can’t be reached
- Demand and supply
o Demand orientated theory – land values can range from zero to “infinity”
o However, the supply is not infinite → therefore, the supply is fixed.
Ricardo’s classical model
- Supply in land is fixed
- Land has a single use: corn production
- Land demand derives from corn demand
- Rent is a residual
- The rent of land is high, because the price of corn is high and not vice versa.
,Neoclassical model (Evans) → adjusted version of Ricardo’s model
The difference between the models is described by the competition between two different goods
(potatoes versus corn) → competition between land uses
- Price of corn is higher because the rent of land is high
What if only the demand for corn would remain; what would be the price of corn?
- Prices could drop, because there is less competition on the market and the supply of land is
fixed. You would go down along the demand curve for potatoes
What if potatoes and corn were perfect substitutes (if we see more of the one good, we have less of
the other) in a closed economy, demand for potatoes goes up, what would be the land rent?
This also happens in the housing markets when it
comes to substitutes → flats versus houses. Strict
separation
When does Ricardian or neoclassical thinking
apply?
- Strict separation of uses
, Hierarchical land use controls – neoclassical thinking
because we assume competition between substitutional goods.
- Note that not only demand shapes land rents, but also the planned supply of land!
For example, Westerhaven → former living area but shopping becomes more popular. The
neighbourhood anticipates on this trend by converting more housing into shopping.
Alonso bid rent model (Von Thunen in the city)
Alonso → CBD (high business – high rents), rent decreases going further away from that area.
Bid for land = total profit. Distance increases (more transportation costs) → the bid for land
decreases.
- Higher transport costs imply lower bids for land (Alonso’s assumption)
- Increased transport costs, decrease the profits and the amount to bid for the land.
o That’s why poorer people normally live in the city centre and more wealthy people in
the outskirts
- Profitability of a good decreases → bid for land would decrease as well.
- Output of a good increases at the same amount of transport costs, this would mean profits
increase and therefore the bid for land could be higher. (try this out in the excel file by
putting in higher yields of a good).
