OPTIMAL IRRIGATION PIVOT LOCATION ON IRREGULARLY SHAPED FIELDS
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Hatch,   L. Upton; Hardy,   William E., Jr.; Rochester,   Eugene W.; Johnson,   Gregory C.
Although annual rainfall in the Southeast is adequate, its distribution is a potential constraint to agricultural production. Farmers require production information concerning efficient use of irrigation technology adapted to regional growing conditions. Selection of optimal position, size, and number of pivots in center pivot irrigation systems poses special problems on small, irregularly shaped fields. In the southeastern United States, field size and shape are often varied and irregular. A mixed integer programming model was constructed to assist in irrigation investment decisions. The model is illustrated using irrigated peanut production in southeast Alabama. Results indicate the importance of economic engineering considerations.

REDUCED RISK ROTATIONS FOR FRESH VEGETABLE CROPS: AN ANALYSIS FOR THE SAND MOUNTAIN AND TENNESSEE VALLEY REGIONS OF ALABAMA
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Zwingli,   Michael E.; Hardy,   William E., Jr.; Adrian,   John L., Jr.
A mixed integer linear programming model was developed to simulate the decision environment faced by an entry-level vegetable producer contemplating production for the wholesale market. The model includes activities which permitted consideration of 13 vegetable crops system. Rotations were permitted within given bounds established by marketing, rotational, and price risk constraints. Rotations were generally stable with respect to markets and relative to crop mixes as target income and acceptable negative deviation levels were varied. Spring and fall broccoli and turnip greens and late spring-summer yellow and zucchini squash were dominant crops in the triple crop rotations in the Atlanta and Cincinnati markets.

AN ANALYSIS OF FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE QUALITY OF FEDERAL LAND BANK LOANS
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Hardy,   William E., Jr.; Spurlock,   Stanley R.; Parrish,   Donnie R.; Benoist,   Lee A.
Financial conditions existing in agriculture are placing severe pressure on lenders as well as borrowers.  Data from both good and foreclosed Federal Land Bank loans were analyzed to determine the most important characteristics leading to the failure of loans.  The analysis was completed by comparing means through t-tests and the development of a discriminant model.  The ratio of total debt service to total income, the debt to asset ratio, the ratio of total loan amount to appraised value, and the ratio of acres in security to acres owned were determined to be the most important discriminating variables.

A MARKOV CHAIN ANALYSIS OF PORK FARM SIZE DISTRIBUTIONS IN THE SOUTH
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Disney,   W. Terry; Duffy,   Patricia A.; Hardy,   William E., Jr.
Concerns over declining farm numbers, shifts in farm size distribution, and associated infrastructural problems have led to a heightened awareness of structural considerations within policy making circles.  Future policy decisions will have substantial structural consequences for the agricultural industry.  Often, however, the indirect effects of grain pricing policies on the livestock sector have been overlooked in these policy decisions.  The incorporation of price effects into a Markov chain analysis of pork farm size distributions and the simulation of those projections to the year 2000 under various price scenarios should provide some insight into the future structure of livestock farming in the South.
