Urban water governance regimes around the world have traditionally planned large-scale, centralized infrastructure systems that aim to control variables and reduce uncertainties. There is growing sectoral awareness that a transition toward sustainable alternatives is necessary if systems are to meet society’s future water needs in the context of drivers such as climate change and variability, demographic changes, environmental degradation, and resource scarcity. However, there is minimal understanding of how the urban water sector should operationalize its strategic planning for such change to facilitate the transition to a sustainable water future. We have integrated concepts from transitions, resilience, and institutional theory to develop a... |

As agricultural commodity industries strategically plan for their future, they need to consider the systemic and synergistic effects of such factors as changing government regulations, demand expansion or contraction, globalized markets, increased competitive pressures, and greater customer quality requirements. This article discusses a framework developed to help industries strategically plan within the context of these dynamic factors. This framework, based upon relevant theory and an accumulation of experiences with this type of strategic planning, provides one possible approach for addressing the strategic needs of an entire industry. In this way, a commodity industry as a whole can identify and address key industrywide strategic issues to maintain and... |

RESUMO: A necessidade de dados para avaliação financeira e econômica de tecnologias agropecuárias e de aperfeiçoamento de procedimentos gerenciais de fazendas, por meio de recursos de informática, levou a Embrapa Cerrados à proposição de um sistema de informações gerenciais para fazendas em parceria com dois produtores familiares e um agrônomo autônomo. Dois estudos de caso em fazendas, na região sul goiana, vêm fundamentando o processo de criação de protótipo do sistema. Utilizando-se do Microsoft Access, foram desenvolvidos os módulos de controle financeiro, de custos, de estoques e de análise de resultados. Módulos de controle de máquinas, de pessoal, do rebanho e de mapas georreferenciados encontram-se em desenvolvimento. Na especificação do módulo de... |

Successful farming requires a clear understanding of the forces shaping agriculture and the direction that the farm is headed. Success also requires an effective method for executing and monitoring both strategic and operational plans. This paper provides an introduction to strategic planning and its application to the farm business. The material in this publication provides a brief description of the strategic planning process, reviews areas in which farm operators make strategic choices and some of the risks that accompany these strategic choices, illustrates the use of process planning methods as a means of linking strategy and operations, and describes the use of benchmarking as a method for monitoring progress and improving performance. While this... |

This study examines the strategic issues and decisions of Producers Cooperative Oil Mill, a regional oilseed processing cooperative located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The process of strategic planning and strategy implementation in agribusiness has been the topic of numerous research studies and case studies. While cooperative firms have been the subject of case studies focusing on strategic issues, the unique aspects of strategic decisions in a cooperative firm have not been highlighted. The formulation and implementation of strategy in cooperative organizations is impacted by their business structure. This case study provides unique examples of how strategy formulation and implementation is impacted by the unique structure and values of a cooperative... |

The purpose of the research is to improve our understanding of the adaptation process in agriculture at the farm level and the influence through the value chain. The research identified critical managerial decision areas in the strategic planning process of blackcurrant growers in Alberta and the South Island of New Zealand. The work was a comparative study of growers that attempted to determine the correspondence between the results of case study observations and a set of theoretical propositions that were developed from a review of the relevant literature. Results indicate that growers understand their own firm’s core competencies, plan strategically and contingently to maintain flexibility and retain niche advantages. Data gathered on the blackcurrant... |

Based on analysis of a time series of Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) indicator and Relative Trade Advantage Index the performance of Hungarian agriculture and food industry has declined rapidly during the last fifteen years. This fact highlights the importance of searching new paradigms in development. In short term the increasing of production–quantity does not seem to be a rational way. The only alternative is the product–differentiation strategy. Under conditions of increasing competition in foreign markets the importance of domestic markets gains in importance. The domestic market is a dynamic one, too: the producers should be better focussed of new demands of specific consumer segments (e.g. elder generations, ethnic minorities etc…). On the... |

Documento que, estabelece as grandes linhas de orientação para as atividades a serem desenvolvidas na Embrapa no período de 2014 a 2034, representa ao mesmo tempo continuidade e ruptura. Continuidade porque a Embrapa, por sua própria natureza de instituição voltada à inovação, possui, desde suas origens, o saudável hábito de atualizar-se sobre os últimos avanços da ciência e dos métodos de gestão empresarial, os quais se refletem na elaboração de suas diversas edições de plano diretor. Ruptura porque, diferentemente dos documentos anteriores, o VI Plano Diretor foi concebido segundo o modelo de gestão em vigência, com caráter extremamente dinâmico para responder às mudanças em curso no contexto de atuação da Empresa, por meio de atualizações periódicas.... |
