I am trying to do exactly the same thing. I have a panel for 11 years. The
only
variation I have is, I think that population is endogenous. My left hand
side
variables in the SUR will be area equations. Any insights on this on
and off the list would be appreciated. I will return the favor.
Thanks for posting this question.

Hi,
I wanted to do a fixed effects or random effects model
for systems of land demand equations. I belive the
error terms across equations are correlated, and hence
estimating them as a system improves efficiency. I
have a panel data of 5 years.
I have seen papers on Random effects SUR (such as
Avery, 1977 and Balatgi, 1980) but haven't come across
packages that handles SUR with panel. I would
appreciate any insight as to how to do this in STATA.
