SUMMARY:Simon BUNEL (INSEAD) "Cultivating Productivity through Regulation: The Case of Pesticide Bans in France"
DESCRIPTION:Séminaire Macro\n12h15 – 13h30 \n14 septembre 2026 \nSalle 3001 \nSimon BUNEL (INSEAD) “Cultivating Productivity through Regulation: The Case of Pesticide Bans in France” \nRésumé : \nThis paper examines the long-standing debate on regulation’s impact on productivity and innovation using novel French agricultural data combining farm-level balance sheets\, crop protection records\, and regulatory changes. The findings highlight a policy trade-off. On the one hand\, when regulation bans an active substance for which no substitute is available\, it causes short-term productivity declines that mitigation practices cannot offset.\nOn the other hand\, it can also act as a catalyst for innovation over the medium term. In particular\, such substitute-less bans spur agrochemical firms to develop new solutions including entirely new active molecules for the regulated uses. These results highlight the need for regulatory policies that balance short-term economic costs with long-term technological progress. \n
