Incorporating Risk In Efficiency Analysis, Glenn A. Helmers

Department of Agricultural Economics: Presentations, Working Papers, and Gray Literature

Using a non-parametric linear programming approach, our contribution is (1) to examine the impact of incorporating risk in efficiency analysis and (2) to compare the efficiency measures with and without risk for continuous and rotation cropping systems. The model uses Nebraska cropping system data for the period, 1986-2000. Results indicate lower efficiency gains are realized with the incorporation of risk. The t-test at the 5% level of significance examining if efficiency measures are significantly different from one is also reported.

The Economic Factors Influencing Producers’ Demand For Farm Managers, Keith H. Coble, Thomas O. Knight, George F. Patrick, Alan Baquet, Oscar Vergara

Department of Agricultural Economics: Presentations, Working Papers, and Gray Literature

This paper primary objective is to analyze the economic factors influencing producers’ demand for farm managers. A survey of commercial farmers’ risk management was conducted by mail during the spring of 1999 in Mississippi, Texas, Indiana, and Nebraska. A Tobit econometric model was constructed to analyze the demand for farm managers. Results showed that a complementary relationship exists between marketing inputs and the decision to hire farm managers. The results indicate that, as farmers increase expenditure on marketing consultants and information systems, their expenditure on farm managers increase.

Estimates And Interpretation Of Income Elasticities Of Demand For Food Products, Azzeddine Azzam

Cornhusker Economics

The income elasticity of demand for a product measures the responsiveness of demand for the product to a change in disposable (after tax) income. To get the measure, one divides the percentage change in demand for the product by the percentage change in income. For example, if the demand for butter fell by 2 percent when incomes rose by 5 percent, the income elasticity of demand for butter is – 0.4 percent. If demand for butter went up by 5 percent, the income elasticity of demand would be 0.4. If instead it went up by 2 percent, the income elasticity …

Comparative Standards For Intensive Livestock Operations In Canada, Mexico, And The United States, Jerry Speir, Marie-Ann Bowden, David E. Ervin, Jim Mcelfish, Rosario P. Espejo, Tim Whitehouse, Chantal L. Carpentier

Economics Faculty Publications and Presentations

Livestock farming has been transformed in the past twenty years from a business dominated by relatively small producers to one dominated by large facilities raising thousands of animals. A side effect of this development has been a new set of environmental concerns unique to this industry. While regulation of livestock agriculture has historically been a state/provincial and local matter, governments from the local to the federal level have found themselves grappling with the issues created by these new, concentrated facilities. This Report surveys the current environmental requirements for "intensive livestock operations" (ILOs) in the United States, Mexico and Canada. The …

Lebron: High School Professional And Phenom, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The name LeBron James was one that I saw occasionally on the ESPN.com site during my time in London last fall. I paid little attention to it having lived through the Amare Stoudemire buzz in Orlando last winter. I had no idea what a major story James had become in Dickvitaleland and how big a celebrity he is across America. He is so popular he may be the only high school student in America today who is known by his first name only.
