Considerations When Marketing Commodities Far Ahead Of Harvest, Matthew Diersen, Scott W. Fausti, Emmanuel Opoku
Economics Pamphlet Series
Crop and livestock producers face a complex challenge when marketing. High commodity prices give a strong incentive to sell, price, or protect revenue far ahead of the traditional cash sale date. However, high and volatile input costs such as rent, fertilizer and feed work against locking in a profit. What follows is a general overview of preliminary material for a series of workshops and programming. The outline of the document and workshops is similar.

Comparison Of 'Organic' And 'Conventional' Grains And Soybean Prices In The Northern Great Plains And Upper Midwest: 1995 Through 2003, Nicholas Streff, Thomas L. Dobbs
Economics Pamphlet Series
Price premiums for organic crops drew the attention of an increasing number of farmers throughout the 1990s. Premiums contributed to the expansion of U.S. farmland managed under organic farming systems during that time period. Expansion of organic farming systems continued at least through 2001. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Economic Research Service's most recent data on organic farming systems, U.S. farmers and ranchers added almost one million acres of certified organic farmland between 1997 and 2001, an increase of 74 percent. Over that same time frame, certified organic cropland increased by 53 percent). The USDA implemented national …

Comparison Of Prices For 'Organic' And 'Conventional' Grains And Soybeans In The Northern Great Plains And Upper Midwest: 1995-2000, Sherry K. Bertamsen, Thomas L. Dobbs
Economics Pamphlet Series
Price premiums for organic crops drew the attention of increasing numbers of farmers in the Northern Great Plains and Upper Midwest during the 1990s. Continuing low prices for crops grown with 'conventional' farming methods during the late 1990s caused a growing number of farmers to explore the possibilities of switching to organic methods and obtaining organic certification. As part of the sustainable agriculture research program in the Economics Department at South Dakota State University (SDSU), we have been comparing 'organic' and 'conventional' crop prices over the past six years. This pamphlet contains an update of the price comparisons through 2000. …

Organic Price Premiums For Northern Great Plains And Upper Midwest Crops: 1995 To 1998, Thomas L. Dobbs, Jamie L. Pourier
Economics Pamphlet Series
Price premiums for organic crops have drawn the attention of increasing numbers of farmers in the Northern Great Plains and Upper Midwest in recent years. Falling prices for crops grown with "conventional" farming methods have caused an increasing number of farmers to explore the possibilities of switching to organic methods and obtaining organic certification. One indication of this interest has been the relatively high attendance at meetings of organic and sustainable farming associations in 1998 and 1999. As part of the sustainable agriculture research program in the Economics Department at South Dakota State University (SDSU), we have been comparing "organic" …

Comparison Of Organic And Conventional Crop Prices: 1995 To 1997, Thomas L. Dobbs, Lisa M. Carr
Economics Pamphlet Series
Organic industry sales by United State (US) natural product distributors have been growing at more than 20 percent annually during the 1990s. Demand growth for certified organic agricultural commodities has been strong both in the us and abroad. For example, Japan's demand for organically grown us soybeans has been especially strong in recent years. This growth in demand, together with growing concerns about the profitability and ecological sustainability of more "conventional" farming systems in some areas, is causing new interest in organic agriculture. Therefore, as part of our sustainable agriculture research program in the Economics Department at South Dakota State …
