  • Note: The dependent variable is the logged real per-acre land value (in 2009 dollars). All models contain June Area Survey (JAS) segment fixed effects. t-Statistics generated by clustering standard errors by county and district membership using the wild t-bootstrap approach outlined by Cameron, Gelbach, and Miller (2008) are presented in parentheses. CV, coefficient of variation; ER, export restriction.

  • *, **, *** Significance at the 10%, 5%, and 1% levels, respectively.
