In his dissertation, he provides a conceptual framework on the production effects of various crop insurance products including area-yield index insurance, and empirically estimates the acreage effect of U.S. crop insurance premium subsidy. Yu's dissertation committee consists of Daniel Sumner (co-chair), Michael Carter (co-chair), and Aaron Smith.
