Extension Educators Collecting Industry-specific Stakeholder Input AgEcon
Bitsch, Vera; Ferris, Ted; Lee, Katherine L.; McFadden, Mike; Ross, Dean.
Extension educators have explored different methods for collecting stakeholder input, but a suitable methodology has not been agreed on. The Michigan State University Extension dairy team works with an advisory board and also collected formal stakeholder input through ten regional partner group surveys in 1997. In 2007, the team decided to seek another round of broad-based and inclusive stakeholder input. The research team decided to employ issue identification groups at different locations throughout the state and a mail survey. This paper reports on the procedure developed for this purpose and its results.

Human Resource Management Risks: Sources and Control Strategies Based on Dairy Farmer Focus Groups AgEcon
Bitsch, Vera; Kassa, Getachew Abate; Harsh, Stephen B.; Mugera, Amin W..
Human resource management in agriculture and associated risks are under-researched topics. To identify the sources of human resource management risks confronting dairy farms, gain insights into how dairy farmers perceive the impacts of these risks, and identify control strategies, four focus group discussions were held with dairy farm managers. Managers’ perceptions served to develop a framework for the analysis of human resource management risks in agriculture and derive recommendations for reducing these risks. Results of this study have been used to tailor educational programs for farmers and suggest strategies for future research.

Labor Risk Attributes in the Green Industry: Business Owners' and Managers' Perspectives AgEcon
Bitsch, Vera; Harsh, Stephen B..
Managers of greenhouses, nurseries, and landscape contractors participated in five focus group discussions on labor-related risks. Managers conceptualize labor risks along the human resource management process: (1) recruitment and selection, (2) training and development, (3) performance evaluation and discipline, (4) careers and relationships, and (5) compensation packages. In addition, they identified (6) immigrant employees and (7) labor laws and regulations as sources of risk. They recognized a large number of risk-increasing attributes, but also a number of mediating strategies to reduce these risks.
