(Solution Library) Consider the Malthusian Model of Economic Growth. Food C is produced using labor N and land L with a constant return to scale production function


Question: Consider the Malthusian Model of Economic Growth. Food C is produced using labor N and land L with a constant return to scale production function F:

\[C=z{{L}^{\frac{1}{3}}}{{N}^{\frac{2}{3}}}\]

Population growth rate \(\frac{N'}{N}\) is a function of food consumption per capita:

\[\frac{N'}{N}={{\left( \frac{C}{N} \right)}^{\frac{1}{2}}}\]

Show graphically,

  1. the steady state population and consumption.
  2. the impact of a decrease in the quantity of land L in the short run and in the long run on population and consumption per capita.
