Última What is the Effect of Operational Managerial Practices on Dairy Farm Efficiency? Some Results from Sweden AgEcon Johansson, Helena; Ohlmer, Bo. The article aims to investigate how operational managerial practices can contribute to improved farm level efficiency at dairy farms. Operational managerial practices are defined as animal health, breeding, and feeding practices. The main contribution of the article is that it investigates aspects that can be adjusted every day to improve farm efficiency. Aspects describing each of the considered managerial practices are regressed on farm level data envelopment efficiency scores based on farm level data from Sweden. The results show that changes in breeding and feeding practices can lead to improved efficiency. Breeding exactly the number of heifers that is needed for replacement of the dairy cows negatively affects long-run technical efficiency. On the...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/9845 Problem Detection and Definition - The Case of Farmers' Choice of Organic Milk Production AgEcon Lunneryd, Daniel; Ohlmer, Bo. Little is known about problem detection and definition, despite that it starts the decision making process. Problem detection means becoming aware of a problem, i.e. of a difference between a desired and perceived situation. Problem definition is the process of specifying the problem, identifying decision options and choosing options to develop further through planning and analysis. The aim is to explain problem detection and definition using the case of farmers' choice of converting to organic milk production. Literature and case studies are used to generate a hypothetical model, which is estimated with survey data, path analysis, the Maximum Likelihood estimator and structural equation modeling. Different problems were identified, such as an ideological...
