| The soil acidity research and extension program in Western Australia is made up of a number of projects, all of which are working towards the overall aim of helping farmers to manage soil acidity profitably. As a means of achieving this aim scientists are undertaking research to provide information that will enable farmers to better quantify potential yield losses due to subsoil aluminium, and to adopt liming strategies to prevent these losses. In this paper we present estimates of the value to farmers of information provided by this aspect of the research. A bio-economic model is used to calculate the profitability of liming for different conditions and Bayesian Decision analysis is employed to estimate the payoff resulting from incrementally refining a... |
