摘要:

AbstractNeoclassical and industrial organization economics have traditionally treated firm internal operations as a black box linking market structure to market performance. This approach is inadequate in our modern food distribution system where large firms shape markets as they are shaped by them. Given the importance of firm behavior to firm and market performance, major research is needed to develop a micro‐microeconomic theory of the firm. Research on strategic choice by firms and their use of internal organization to implement those choices is a promising approach to developing this new theor

摘要:

AbstractA transshipment model was used to derive the existing and projected optimal structure of the US soybean processing industry. Analyses of model results for various time periods indicate that the potential exists for significant cost reductions on a national basis, if processing plants could be more optimally sized and located. It was also found that present processing capacity was in excess of present needs in most regions of the US; however, by the year 2000, almost all regions would need more plants or greater capacities than currently exist.

摘要:

AbstractIdentification of strategic issues is a key managerial task. This study reports on an exploratory survey effort to identify strategic issues as perceived by managers of a diverse sample of agribusiness firms. The results suggest that both strategic management and strategic issue identification are important to agricultural managers. In general there was considerable commonality of interest expressed relative to individual strategic issues. However, the existence of key differences in concern were documented based on structural characteristics of the firm.

摘要:

AbstractPrivate and public sector participants in the information systems business are struggling to define their appropriate roles. Two qualities of information goods can affect whether or not public goods characteristics dominate; the life span of the information and the analytic content of the material. Moreover, technological change can alter both qualities. Those goods with a short life span and high analytic content are more likely to be allocated efficiently by the private sector. However, the longer the life span of the information and the lower the analytic content, the more likely that public participation is appropriate. The case of AGNET, an on‐line information system for farmers, is used to illustrate how technological change can facilitate the transition from public to private secto

摘要:

AbstractThe labor, land, and capital intensities of US agricultural trade during 1982 are examined through an input‐output model. The empirical findings indicate that factor endowments are important determinants of US agriculture's comparative advantage in international trade. In contrast to the Leontief Paradox, US agricultural exports tend to be more land and capital intensive while agricultural imports are more labor intensiv

摘要:

AbstractThe Japanese beef import quota will be a crucial component of US‐Japanese discussions in the upcoming round of Multilateral Trade Negotiations. The focus will be on the economic issues, including the effects of policy alternatives to the quota on the Japanese cattle industry and beef imports. Several social issues, including the effects of increased imports on nutrient balance in the diet, changing tastes in Japan, and their self‐sufficiency goals are at least as important to the Japanese, This article considers both the economic and social issues of increased imports and their implications for negotiati

AbstractAlthough agricultural financial conditions and reorganization options have been analyzed extensively by agricultural economists, an analysis of actual Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings has not previously been completed. The study contains analysis of 219 filings in South Dakota from 1980–1985 and documents the financial characteristics of these producers and their creditor
