Shon Ferguson

I am an applied economist focusing on agriculture, trade and the environment. I use innovative approaches to evaluate the impacts of government policies on economic and environmental outcomes. Much of my work contributes to understanding the interplay between policy, production dynamics, and trade in the agricultural sector.

I teach Environmental Policy at the master's level at SLU.

Current projects:

Impacts of animal welfare legislation on the farm economy across EU countries (Formas, PI)

PLATE: Swedish Research Centre for Resilient Meals (Formas, WP Leader)

VALOR: VALues and dependence of society on pollinatORs (EU Horizon, co-applicant)

The economic potential of AgroEcological farming practices in times of severe climatic and economic disruptions (Formas, co-applicant)
