Whole Farm Analysis Of Low-Input Sustainable Farming Systems Using An Extension Farm Financial Management Package, Mark Leddy, Thomas Dobbs, Burton Pflueger

Economics Staff Paper Series

Farmers in recent years have been faced with economic hardships and an increasing awareness of the environmental impacts of conventional farming practices.
