- Pesticide Productivity and Transgenic Cotton Technology: The South African Smallholder Case (2005, methodology): “It has been profitably employed in the analysis of Bt cotton evaluation by Huang et al. (2002) and Qaim et al. (2003), and is the framework used here.”
- The Economics of Genetically Modified Crops (2009, methodology): “More studies are available for Bt cotton: Huang et al. (2002a) employed an insecticide-use model and a production function with a damage-control specification to estimate the effects in China.”
- Quantifying pesticide overuse from farmer and societal points of view: An application to Thailand (2013, result): “Conceptual frame In line with previous studies, pesticide overuse is defined as the amount of pesticides used in excess of an economically-defined optimum (Huang et al., 2002; Jah and Regmi, 2009; Qaim and De Janvry, 2005; Sexton et al., 2007).”
- Biotechnology boosts to crop productivity in China: trade and welfare implications (2004, methodology): “…the impact of biotechnology on various input uses and crop yield (after control for input uses) in the cotton production, Pray et al. (2001) and Huang et al. (2002b) used both farm budget analysis and damage control production function approach based on the production practices of 282 cotton…”
- Risk preferences and pesticide use by cotton farmers in China (2013, methodology): “18 One might think the target input model by Jovanovic and Nyarko (1994) and Foster and Rosenzweig (1995) may be an alternative to the Cobb-Douglas production function in estimating the optimal pesticide use.”
- EU Food Safety Standards, Pesticide Use and Farm‐level Productivity: The Case of High‐value Crops in Kenya (2009, background): “Although this problem applies to all inputs, it is especially true of pesticides, as they are often applied in response to pest pressure (Huang et al., 2002).”
- Water management and crop production for food security in China: A review (2009, background): “For instance, GM cotton requires much less pesticide and has only a small impact on yields (Huang et al., 2002a; Shankar and Thirtle, 2005).”
- Impact of Bt cotton on pesticide poisoning in smallholder agriculture: A panel data analysis (2011, background): “…for pesticides is expected to be price responsive, including pit as a regressor is a common approach in pesticide use models (Hossain et al., 2004; Huang et al., 2002; Qaim and de Janvry, 2005). σ andφ are coefficients to be estimated, and c, ηi, ρt, and υit are intercept, unobserved…”
- Specification and Estimation of Production Functions Involving Damage Control Inputs: A Two-Stage, Semiparametric Approach (2006, background): “The average number of eleven applications per season and the use of approximately 16 kg of formulated pesticides per hectare are about 35% higher than the corresponding figures reported in previous studies (Huang et al., 2002).”
- 'Bt cotton' benefits, costs and impacts in China (2003, methodology): “Farmers use more pesticides per hectare on cotton than on any other field crop in China (Huang et al. 2002a).”
