This book was released on 2019-06-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report aims to identify the different scenarios where the process of digital transformation is taking place in agriculture. This identifies those aspects of basic conditions, such as those of infrastructure and networks, affordability, education and institutional support. In addition, enablers are identified, which are the factors that allow adopting and integrating changes in the production and decision-making processes. Finally identify through cases, existing literature and reports how substantive changes are taking place in the adoption of digital technologies in agriculture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this project was to consider the feasibility of possible alternatives to the current Agri-Stability program. These alternatives consist of customizable area-based whole-farm program where payments are based on a regional trigger. Problems, associated with designing a simple index, based on revenues across relevant commodities in a region, are considered and alternative strategies to implement the alterative program are developed. The analysis is both conceptual and backed up with stochastic simulations that test alternative approaches and consider trade-offs. Results show that there is a relatively high false negative probability of payouts due to spatial, design, other covariate, and idiosyncratic basis risks. The persistence of basis risk means that the uptake of an area-triggered program will be limited. Reducing basis risk will improve uptake, but this requires addressing design risk and spatial basis risk.

Download or read book Managing Risk in Agriculture written by Ashok K. Mishra and published by CABI. This book was released on 2023-10-02 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book addresses and documents farmers' risks in developing and emerging economies. It draws lessons from experimental economics on measuring risk preferences, attitudes, gender differences in managing risks, and risk management strategies in countries across Africa and Asia. It argues policy makers, especially in emerging economies, need a better understanding of farmers' attitudes toward risk and choices of risk management strategies when designing policies to support production agriculture. The book includes chapters on three themes: understanding risk attitudes and preferences; using experimental economics to measure risk, preferences, and risk management strategies; and understanding climate change, risk, and risk management. The book critically examines the currently held beliefs about risk preference, attitudes, and empirical estimation of risk management strategies, emphasizing developing and emerging economies (DEE). This book is ideal for students and researchers in universities and research organizations who conduct applied research on public policy, community development, and rural development, and will also be of interest to policy-makers in those fields.

Download or read book Risky Agricultural Markets written by Pasquale L Scandizzo and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how decisions made by individual farmers influence the efficiency of agricultural markets. Unless farmers properly take account of the correlation between prices and yields in forming their price forecasts, competitive markets will often be socially inefficient, leading to misallocation of resources. The authors demonstrate that a simple and practical price forecasting rule, based on expected per unit revenue, is generally adequate to ensure efficient market behavior.Time-series data from various countries are used to test the hypothesis that market supply is influenced by the correlation of price and yield as well as by lagged market prices . The importance of market inefficiencies in risky situations is shown to, depend on the variability of yields, the nature of farmers'price forecasting behavior, the degree of private risk aversion,and the elasticity of demand. The authors suggest and evaluate three basic policy approaches governments may take when confronted with very inefficient markets--establishing production quotas, improving market information services, and implementing price stabilization schemes. They conclude by discussing implications of the study for the specification of agricultural supply models and for the economic appraisal of risky investment projects.
