Maxence Gérard is a PhD student at UMR PSAE, INRAE, Université Paris-Saclay, under the supervision of Guy Meunier and Stéphane de Cara. He holds a master’s degree in agricultural science, major in agricultural and environmental economics, from L’Institut Agro Rennes-Angers. His PhD aims to better understand what are the optimal instruments for regulating negative externalities from the livestock sector, focusing particularly on the role of land use, on the producer side, and new dietary habits on the demand side. The project relies on the design of stylised theoretical microeconomic models.
