Multiple Hurdles estimation

[Yanjanani Lifeyo]

Dear Statalist,

I am working on a market participation study which involve 3 hurdles

1. Decision to produce soybean
2. Condition of being a producer, a household can be either a net seller, anet buyer or autarkic
3. condition of being a net seller or a net buyer, factors affecting net sales and net purchases

I want to analyse it using the cmp command by Roodman but I am having a problem on how to specify my model, more specifically on the indicator part.

1st hurdle will be a probit model
2nd hurdle will be an ordered probit, and
3rd hurdle will be 2 truncated regressions

Any help will be greatly appriciated

Kind regards

Hey, I hope you are well, did you make headway with this analysis, I am facing more or less similar analysis kindly help if in a position:

I have a dilemma over the application of double hurdle model.
Here is a description of the data that I want to analyze:
1. Binary info on household purchase of different milk products
2. If products is purchased above, I have the quantities purchased and prices
3. Of the quantities purchased, who consumed in the household and the quantities for each member (Intrahousehold allocation)

My objective is to analyze this data to produce empirical evidence on determinants of milk purchases and intrahousehold allocations - I have sociodemographic household information too

Previous studies have employed double hurdle to analyse participation and determinants of the purchase, but my worry is how to go beyond this stage to look at the intrahousehold allocations, with an interest of how sociodemographic factors influence children access to milk

I welcome suggestions on how to go about this

Thanks and Regards
Emmanuel
