The purpose of this work is to introduce the CGE§Model and apply it to measure the impacts§of production activities to the economy. The§expansion of hog production and processing on§the economy of Texas County, Oklahoma, was used as§the case study of this model. The impacts are§evaluated based on the measures of welfare.§§Model in the short-run show that when output of Meat§Packing increases 10 times the output of Hog Product§increases 11.54 times while the changes of output of§other sectors are small, and all commodity prices§increase. The measures of regional welfare such as§Gross Regional Product increases 7.21%, indirect§business increases 8.33% and employment increases§10.74%. Results of the long-run show that output of§Hog Product increases 35.04 times when output of§Meatpacking increases 30 times. Output put of Other§Livestock decreases 47% because price of main§intermediate inputs such as Feed Grains and Other§Crops increase.
