| This paper will take a new look at budgeting. It will be argued that with the development of linear programming, budgeting can be seen to have several disadvantages as a research tool. The development of linear programming as an aid to farm management research will then be examined. This examination will lead to the development of a slight refinement of conventional budgeting methods. This refinement may reasonably be termed parametric budgeting. |

| The New South Wa1es Milk Board was brought into being in 1929, as a result of producer action, to bring order into a highly disorganised market situation. The retailing of milk had been extremely competitive, milk supply and hence milk price had been erratic and hygiene had been a matter of caveat emptor. (1) The Board was without effective powers until the Milk Act, 1931, after which prices were stabilised, inspection of dairies was introduced and in general reasonable standards of hygiene were established. Initially whole milk quotas were allocated to factories. However, in the early 1950's it was found that despite a marked expansion of the milk zone, and despite a marked increase in price, the factory quota system still failed to produce sufficient... |

| Statistical estimation of the demand function for most industrial, and many agricultural, products is inhibited by price fixing or price stabilizing arrangements which prevent observation of the full range of possible price-quantity combinations. In the period 1956 to 1961 the London butter market has illustrated how markedly price can fluctuate, when not subject to a stablizing agreement. In the period 1958 to 1961 estimates of retail sales of butter are available, and these permit the estimation of the demand for butter at retail. The time lag between production and consumption decisions means that there is no problem of identification. The present study uses weekly price and quantity information, and there is a serious problem of auto-correlation of the... |

| In this article a new approach to one aspect of the economics of drought reserves will be discussed. In particular attention will be directed to the uncertainty of drought feed requirements. If future feed requirements were known with certainty then drought would lose many of its terrors, adequate reserves could be accumulated In time to meet a dry spell and unnecessary reserves could be dispensed with. The main worries associated with drought are the uncertainty as to when a drought will begin and how long it will last. Essentially in this article the aim will be to develop one new approach to the problems of risk and uncertainty raised by drought. The example used could have been more detailed and more realistic (for instance, the possibility of selling... |
