Cross-Hedging Fishmeal: Exploring Corn and Soybean Meal Futures Contracts AgEcon
Parcell, Joseph L.; Boessen, Christian R.; Altman, Ira J.; Sanders, Dwight R..
During 2006 the fishmeal price nearly doubled from $500MT to over $900MT. The objective of this research is to determine the optimal cross-hedge ratio between fishmeal and soybean meal and corn, and corresponding hedging weight between corn and soybean. Results indicate all hedging weight should be placed on the corn futures contract. This is an interesting result since prior fishmeal cross-hedging research has not analyzed the corn futures contract as a risk management mechanism.

A Pilot Program to Assist CAFOs in Using Weather Data to Minimize Manure Management Risk AgEcon
Massey, Raymond E.; Boessen, Christian R..
This paper summarizes a pilot project to disseminate site specific weather information that has been processed to estimate field runoff potential of land applied manure. Preliminary feedback indicate the program has value but that additional information is needed to understand how farmers use weather information to make decisions within the regulatory constraints they face.

Applying Transaction Cost Economics: A Note on Biomass Supply Chains AgEcon
Altman, Ira J.; Sanders, Dwight R.; Boessen, Christian R..
Agricultural supply chains, especially those from producer to first handler, are relatively mature institutions. While agricultural economists often observe the evolution of marketing structures in developing nations, it is a rare opportunity to research a developing market within North America. The emerging bioenergy industry—which relies on non-food crops such as straw—provides the potential to research and potentially impact the development of new supply chains. Here, we briefly review the literature related to biomass supply chains, pose a transaction cost approach to studying their development, and then discuss the procurement strategies of an industry leader: the Iogen Corporation.

Creating Individualized Self-Scoring Assessments for Agricultural Economics Undergraduates AgEcon
Monson, Michael J.; Boessen, Christian R..
What is an individualized self-scoring assessment for an agricultural economics major? It is a homework assignment that is unique for each student in the class and provides immediate feedback to the student on the correctness of the work. The principle is to generate unique problems, whether it is as simple as the basic intercept and slope of supply and demand equations for an introductory economics class, the parameters of a production function for a production economics, or the interest rate for agricultural finance. One must be aware in constructing the generator algorithms for problem parameters that any necessary conditions will be satisfied a priori such as downward sloping demand, concavity or convexity for maximization or minimization. These...

An Assessment of the India Soy Protein Market AgEcon
Brinker, Adam J.; Parcell, Joseph L.; Boessen, Christian R..
This research is a first step in determining India's future need for soy-based protein products. The objective of this study is to determine India's protein demand over the next ten years. Then, using the per capita protein demand derived from this study, along with income, population, and dietary information, per capita soy protein consumption was estimated for the same time period. It was found that income growth has a large positive affect on protein consumption.

Contracting for Biomass: Supply Chain Strategies for Renewable Energy AgEcon
Altman, Ira J.; Boessen, Christian R.; Sanders, Dwight R..
An organizational perspective is taken in analyzing the general case of the biomass exchange and the specific case of the Iogen Corporation as it attempts to commercialize their cellulose ethanol technology. An example contract is examined in detail and compared to current straw and hay supply chain systems.
