| This report presents the results from the first annual Louisiana Rural Land Market Survey. The survey was designed to collect detailed information from rural real estate professionals regarding market conditions in their areas. Results of this study suggest that land values vary by area of the state and the primary commodity grown on the tract. Substantial variation in land value within areas and by parish suggests a number of factors affect rural land values and markets. Further research will be designed to measure the effects of these various factors on rural real estate markets. |

| The purpose of this report is to supplement the series of annual cost projections for enterprises by providing profitability and cash flow projections for several whole farm situations throughout the state. Whole farm projections of returns and expenses are expected to provide information regarding the relative profitability of individual farming situations throughout the state. Estimates from cash flow projections provide information concerning the timing of cash flows and the distribution of cash flows for individual farm situations and comparison of estimates for these situations provide an indication of the relative cash flow positions of farms across the state. These projections are expected to be of value to farmers, agricultural credit agencies,... |

| Structural changes in the farm production sector, continued pressure to reform existing agricultural policies, and an increasing demand for nonagricultural real estate emphasize the need for rural land market research. Rural land, with a wide diversity of physical characteristics and use, continues to be a large portion of Louisiana's total land base. Of Louisiana's total 28,493,440 land acres, cropland and pastureland account for 7,811,413 acres or 27 percent (1992 Louisiana Census of Agriculture). If timberland is included (USDA, Forest Service, 1991), rural land accounts for 79 percent of Louisiana's total land acreage. The measurement of economic, locational, and topographic variables hypothesized to influence rural land values is expected to be... |

| Undergraduate programs in agribusiness education have attracted much interest in recent years. Many university facilities have developed agribusiness educational programs and others are considering the development of such programs. As these programs evolve throughout the country, there are many questions which relate to the structure and future directions of these educational efforts. A review of the issues related to agribusiness program development is presented. A planning process that can be used to focus on the many agribusiness educational issues and provide insight into agribusiness program development in outlined. |

| Income variability and means for managing risk continue to receive much attention in farm management research. In this paper, irrigation is presented as a risk-management strategy that offers potential diversification benefits. Potential diversification opportunities largely result from a wider range of enterprise production activities. A portfolio analysis of dryland and irrigated farm scenarios indicates that income stabilizing and diversification effects of irrigation substantially modify the risk-return position of a typical farm in northeast Louisiana. Safety-first considerations along with Target MOTAD programming procedures also are used to evaluate the impact of irrigation on the farm's financial performance. |

| Developments in communication technology have created new opportunities in higher education, but they have also created new challenges. As the focus shifts from providing quality teaching to providing quality learning environments, faculty and administrators need to acquire a better understanding of student perceptions of these new technologies in order to intelligently plan academic programs. This research summarizes student perceptions of electronic delivery methods in selected agricultural economics courses at Louisiana State University during the 2002-03 and 2004-05 academic years. Preliminary results suggest that the "traditional" chalkboard classroom is rapidly disappearing across all curriculums and that students favor this change even though... |

| Rural land comprises 77 percent of Louisiana's total land acreage, with a wide diversity of physical characteristics and use. Therefore, reliable rural real estate market information is expected to be of value to landowners, investors, borrowers, lenders, realtors, appraisers, public taxing authorities, and policy makers. This report presents the results from the second annual Louisiana Rural Land Market Survey. Results of this study suggest that land values vary by area of the state and the primary commodity grown on the tract. Substantial variation in land value within areas and by parish suggests a number of factors affect rural land values and markets. |

| Changes in commodity prices and input costs along with adjustments in capital structure significantly affect farm cash flow requirements and whole farm profitability. These changes coupled with crop yield and price variability increase the need for farm business cash flow and profitability planning on a whole farm basis. Planning for profits is expected to affect both the short and long run success of the business and cash flow planning is expected to allow the manager to establish farm business cash needs for a specified period of time (production period) so that cash commitments are met as they come due. Furthermore, agricultural lenders have become increasingly concerned with loan repayment capacity and are placing relatively more emphasis on cash flow... |

| Empirical research has shown that location and economic development are important factors in rural market. With more and more rural land being converted at the urban fringe, buyer, sellers, planners, appraisers, tax assessors, and others are expected to have an increasing need for information related to the effect of location on rural land values. In econometric land value estimation, misspecification of the variance-covariance matrix results in loss of efficiency, predictive accuracy, and biased inference. The form of the weight matrix is also important. Additional flexibility can be introduced by including a decay parameter, along with different number of neighbors to provide improved estimates. The general objective of this paper is to develop an... |
