Última USING BUSINESS SIMULATIONS AND ISSUE DEBATES TO FACILITATE SYNTHESIS IN AGRIBUSINESS CAPSTONE COURSES AgEcon Fairchild, Gary F.; Taylor, Timothy G.. Tipo: Conference Paper or Presentation Palavras-chave: Agribusiness; Teaching/Communication/Extension/Profession. Ano: 2000 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/36460 Dynamic Factor Demands for Aggregate Southeastern United States Agriculture AgEcon Taylor, Timothy G.; Monson, Michael J.. A four equation input demand system for aggregate Southeastern United States agriculture consistent with dynamic optimizing behavior is specified and estimated. Labor and materials are considered as variable inputs while land and capital are treated as quasi-fixed inputs. It is found that the adjustment rates for capital and land differ considerably and are interdependent. Further, the data appear consistent with the existence of an aggregate production technology and the hypothesized optimizing behavior. Tipo: Journal Article Palavras-chave: Farm Management. Ano: 1985 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/37202 Agribusiness Capstone Courses Design: Objectives and Strategies AgEcon Hall, Charles R.; Fairchild, Gary F.; Baker, Gregory A.; Taylor, Timothy G.; Litzenberg, Kerry K.. This paper discusses the benefits of using strategic management principles as the cornerstone for building the agribusiness capstone experience. The necessity for agribusiness firms to create and implement strategies that build a sustainable competitive advantage in turn necessitates the development of strategic management skills in the leaders/managers of the future. As such, the objectives of a capstone course lean heavily toward the integrative development of strategic decision-making competence. This has a number of implications for the capstone professor in terms of course content, pedagogies, and subsequent measurement of student performance.

Ano: 2003 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/34375 TRADE LIBERALIZATION AND JAPANESE AGRICULTURAL IMPORT POLICIES AgEcon Pantzios, Christos J.; Taylor, Timothy G.. This analysis empirically evaluates a subset of Japanese agricultural policies during the 1970s and 1980s using the Trade Restrictiveness Index recently developed by Anderson and Neary. This index, though theoretically rigorous, is empirically demanding, resulting in relatively few applications. Inferences obtained from the index are in general accordance with policy changes and economic events over the period of analysis. Using 1970 as the base, the estimated TRI suggests that policy changes during 1970-87 resulted in moderately liberalized trade. Comparison with a conventional measure of trade distortion- producer and consumer subsidy equivalents (PSEs and CSEs)- reveals contrasting inference. This suggests the choice of empirical measures in evaluating... Tipo: Journal Article Palavras-chave: International Relations/Trade. Ano: 1998 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/31200 INCORPORATING STOCHASTIC HARVESTS INTO AN ANALYSIS OF PRODUCTION: THE U.S. ATLANTIC AND GULF OF MEXICO PELAGIC LONGLINE FLEET AgEcon Perruso, Larry; Taylor, Timothy G.; Larkin, Sherry L.. Vessel operators maximize expected utility indirectly through cost-minimizing production decisions subject to stochastic harvests. Data on the Atlantic longline fleet, available from NMFS logbooks, is used for the empirical analysis. An ex ante multi-input cost function that incorporates expected rather than realized output levels is estimated and results are reported.

The first half of this decade has witnessed an explosion in the creation and rejuvenation of preferential trading arrangements. Indeed, since 1990, 33 regional agreements have been notified to the GATT. An understanding of the basic structure of these agreements within the Western Hemisphere is critical to the ex ante assessment of the potential impacts of a Western Hemisphere Free Trade Agreement (WHFTA) on individual countries and groups, as well as specific sectors such as agriculture and food processing.

Ano: 1995 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/27227 CARICOM Bilateral Trade: A Preliminary Analysis Using the Gravity Model AgEcon Sandberg, H. Mikael; Taylor, Timothy G.; Seale, James L., Jr.. This paper investigates the determinants of intra-CARICOM bilateral trade and the CARICOM member's trade with the North American and European countries using the gravity model. Seventeen annual cross-sections are estimated for the period 1980 through 1996. Overall, the empirical results indicate that the gravity model has considerable potential to explain intra-CARICOM bilateral trade as well as trade between CARICOM members and non-members. The evidence suggests that both the importer's GDP per capita and the exporter's GDP per capita exert strong positive effects on CARICOM trade levels. Since these effects are found to be statistically the same, we conclude that the gravity model is symmetric with respect to GDP per capita. Further, sharing a common...

Ano: 2002 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/15636 Export Diversification in Latin America and the Caribbean AgEcon Taylor, Timothy G.. Beginning in the mid-1980s the primary development paradigm pursued by Latin American and Caribbean countries undertook a major shift from the concept of import-substitution-industrialization (ISI) to that of export-led growth and openness to international markets. Despite these efforts, virtually no research has been undertaken to assess the degree to which the export structures of Latin American and Caribbean countries have in fact diversified. This is unfortunate as the trade policy environment facing these countries is poised to undergo significant changes. The purpose of this paper is to examine the structure of exports to the U.S. from 19 selected Latin American and Caribbean countries over the 1989 to 2000 period in order to assess the degree to...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/36806 Agricultural Export Diversification in Latin America and the Caribbean AgEcon Taylor, Timothy G.; Francis, Brian. Agriculture, in general, and agricultural exports in particular, have long been critical to economic growth and development in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Despite the importance of agriculture to the region and the vast amount of resources devoted to the promotion of agricultural export diversification in LAC, there has been virtually no research undertaken to assess the degree to which the agricultural export structures in LAC countries have in fact diversified. Using disaggregate data on agricultural exports over the 1961-2000 period for 10 LAC countries, entropy-based measures of diversification are computed and analyzed. The empirical results show that the post-1985 period has witnessed some degree of agricultural export diversification...

Ano: 2003 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/45796 PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH IN THE FLORIDA FRESH WINTER VEGETABLE INDUSTRY AgEcon Taylor, Timothy G.; Wilkowske, Gary H.. Results indicate that productivity growth has been a prime factor in Florida's ability to retain a competitive position in the United States domestic fresh winter vegetable market. Total factor productivity indexes and productivity growth rates are estimated for the production of four major vegetable crops in one or more of four production areas in Florida. Florida producers have exhibited substantial productivity growth over the 1969-70 to 1981-82 period. Tipo: Journal Article Palavras-chave: Crop Production/Industries; Productivity Analysis. Ano: 1984 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/29723 A TEST OF ASSET FIXITY IN SOUTHEASTERN U.S. AGRICULTURE AgEcon Taylor, Timothy G.; Kalaitzandonakes, Nicholas G.. A test for static equilibrium developed by Schankerman and Nadiri is used to evaluate the hypothesis that land and capital in aggregate southeastern U.S. agriculture behave as fixed inputs. Empirical results reject the hypothesis that these two inputs are at their long-run equilibrium levels implied by observed prices. Thus, some degree of asset fixity may be concluded.

Ano: 1990 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/29898 COMPETITIVE PRESSURE AND PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH: THE CASE OF THE FLORIDA VEGETABLE INDUSTRY AgEcon Kalaitzandonakes, Nicholas G.; Taylor, Timothy G.. The relationship between the degree of competitive market pressure and the rate of productivity growth is empirically investigated with a case study of the Florida fresh winter vegetable industry. The results indicate that crops which faced considerable competitive pressure exhibited significant productivity growth while the crops that faced minimal competitive pressure generally exhibited little growth in productivity. Thus, the hypothesis that competitive pressure is positively related to productivity growth is supported. Tipo: Journal Article Palavras-chave: Productivity Analysis. Ano: 1990 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/30014 AN ANALYSIS OF MARKET STRUCTURE AND PRICING IN THE FLORIDA CELERY INDUSTRY AgEcon Taylor, Timothy G.; Kilmer, Richard L.. The pricing behavior of the Florida celery industry under the current federal marketing order was examined by analyzing the implied market structure of the industry using a model proposed by Appelbaum. Point estimates of the oligopoly power index suggest that some degree of price enhancement above that which would be characterized by a perfectly competitive market may have occurred. However, the bulk of statistical evidence suggests that the departure from marginal cost pricing implied by the industry's pricing behavior is not statistically significant.
