ELICITING AND VALUING MARKET PREFERENCES WITH TRADITIONAL FOOD CROPS: THE CASE OF CHICKPEA IN INDIA AgEcon
Agbola, Frank W.; Kelley, Timothy G.; Bent, Martin J.M.; Rao, P. Parthasarathy.
During the past decade the Indian chickpea industry underwent a dramatic structural shift following the implementation of market-oriented policies by the Government of India. This paper examines consumer attitudes to quality characteristics of chickpea in India. A linear hedonic price model is estimated using auction price and quality data of chickpea samples obtained from major markets in India. Empirical results indicate that specific physical quality characteristics and purity standards are important factors influencing the price of chickpea in India. Thus, there may be an incentive for domestic producers and sellers of chickpea – and exporting countries – to improve the quality of their product, if improvements in specific physical characteristics...

Factors Influencing The Demand For Chickpea In India: Implications For Marketing And Promotion In The Indian Chickpea Market AgEcon
Agbola, Frank W.; Bent, Martin J.M.; Kelley, Timothy G.; Rao, P. Parthasarathy.
The Indian Sub-Continent (ISC) is the largest pulse producing and consuming region in the world. Australian scientists, producers, processors and exporters require detailed information about these markets. One study of these markets aims to describe the Indian chickpea market and to quantify the value of quality traits in the market using statistical analysis. This paper describes the Indian chickpea market and reports the results of about forty interviews with wholesalers, retailers, processors, brokers and commission agents which were conducted in eight key Indian markets in May and August 1999. A subsequent paper will present the results of an econometric analysis, which attaches values to the product traits of samples taken at the time of the...

Farm Management - Bugger the roots, where is the future? AgEcon
McGregor, Murray J.; Rola-Rubzen, Maria Fay; Murray-Prior, Roy B.; Dymond, John; Bent, Martin J.M..
The Farm Management discipline has long been closely aligned with agricultural economics. The question we raise is not where either discipline came from but where is Farm Management going. The impact of globalisation, the rising tide of deregulation and chain reversal mean that farm management professionals who have traditionally focused on optimisation of activities at a farm level are now commonly expected to use sociology and management science to explain economic organisation and performance on farms. They also are required to look at relationships in the value chain(s) in which the farm sits. This paper will analyse the implications of such change for Farm Management professionals.

Farming in the "New Economy" : An Australian Perspective AgEcon
McGregor, Murray J.; Bent, Martin J.M..
Barriers to trade between countries have reduced through the general Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the World Trade Organisation (WTO). The nature of trade between businesses is also changing dramatically through developments in Information Technology but also due to adoption of quality assurance and new approaches to supply chain management. The impacts of this "New Economy" vary around the world. This paper considers the implications of these developments for Australian farmers. Whilst these changes can be regarded as generally advantageous to Australian farmers, they may be disadvantaged in some areas because of the relatively small size of the Australian farming sector, its geographical dispersion, the advent of a range of new technologies...

Herbicide Resistance in Ryegrass: Stochastic Evaluation of Management Strategies AgEcon
Draper, Alister; Bent, Martin J.M..
Annual Ryegrass is a significant weed in cereal production in Western Australia. Herbicide resistance is increasing and is a major concern to producers. Long-term, field scale trials are being conducted on a number of sites in the state. The apparent costs and benefits of different management strategies are dependent on seasonal conditions and markets for inputs and products. This paper presents the results of a simulation model of alternative strategies under a wide range of historic conditions. A conceptual framework for selecting an optimal strategy is explored.

Measuring Employee Turnover in Australian Pig Production AgEcon
Evans, Emma; Bent, Martin J.M..
Limited availability of competent and motivated staff has been repeatedly cited as one of the major constraints on pig production in Australia. Whilst a considerable effort is put into training staff (Western Australia boasts the most advanced training facility in South-East Asia), practically nothing is known about the rates of employee turnover. Based on a postal survey and case studies of high and low turnover piggeries, this paper provides the first objective measures of staff turnover in the pig industry and explores possible explanatory factors. Measurement of turnover can provide managers with a benchmark to assess their own performance. This study also revealed shortcomings in the standard Separation Method used by the Australian Bureau of...
