Marketing Effects On Consumer Retention And Expenditures In Central Kentucky And North Central Tennessee Floral Industry, Danielle L. Berkshire
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Florists in today’s industry are competing against mass-markets that are able to buy and sell fresh-cut flowers at low prices in bulk. Mass-markets offer little or no design or other services. Consumers find it convenient to order flowers online through wire services, paying large fees to order flowers. Order gatherers pose as local floral shops taking consumers orders online or by phone then call the local florist to fill orders. Packaged flowers became popular in the early 2000’s ordering flowers directly from the farm to the consumer. Rural and metropolitan areas of Central Kentucky and North Central Tennessee were surveyed. …

Soybean Marketing Methods And Characteristics Of Arkansas Grain Handlers, Patricia A. Sauer, Nathan B. Smith, Andrew M. Mckenzie
Soybean Marketing Methods And Characteristics Of Arkansas Grain Handlers, Patricia A. Sauer, Nathan B. Smith, Andrew M. Mckenzie
Research Reports and Research Bulletins
Arkansas producers should acquaint themselves with all marketing methods available to them. Of particular importance is the pervasiveness of price risk within the current economic climate. This bulletin provides insights into the current structure of the grain marketing industry, soybean handler characteristics, and the availability and use of marketing alternatives in Arkansas. Arkansas soybean handlers were surveyed in 1998 to determine the marketing practices of both handlers and producers for the 1996 crop year. Particular emphasis was placed on the types of contracting methods offered by these handlers. Both facility size and corporate structure were found to play a significant …

An Economic Information Program For The U.S. Beef And Pork Sectors, N. A. Aulaqi, J. B. Hassler
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Major objectives of the study were: first, to review present public data programs and to indicate areas of inefficient performance in the production and marketing of beef and pork that still exist under the present data system; second, to simulate an operational information service program for the beef and pork sectors based on programmed solutions for industry allocations and activities; and third, to outline possible implementation procedures for the information service programs and to indicate the role of each of the participants in making it successful.

Beef Cattle - At What Weight Should They Be Sold?, Franz Schwarz, J. B. Hassler
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Specific objectives of this study are: (1) To evaluate the recent historical price relationships of the beef sector indicative of profit and loss conditions caused by disorderly aggregate performance in production and marketing. (2) To analyze the risks involved at various positions in the chain of production and marketing activities. (3) To suggest information and action programs which could reduce the amount of disorderly production and marketing.
Orderly Production And Marketing In The Beef-Pork Sector, John E. Trierweiler, James B. Hassler
Orderly Production And Marketing In The Beef-Pork Sector, John E. Trierweiler, James B. Hassler
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
This study will present economic models for analyzing temporal equilibrium positions for the beef-pork sector. The issues of spatial distribution, storage, and meat forms will not be directly analyzed. Grade and yield changes for various carcass classes will, however, be implied in the carrying costs of the animal. The models will be designed such that a number of different factors that affect the production and marketing of beef and pork can be analyzed simultaneously.

Turkey Production, F. E. Mussehl
Turkey Production, F. E. Mussehl
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Whatever problems turkey production presents, lack of demand for roast turkey is not at this time one of them. Turkeys rate so high in popular esteem that very rarely indeed do prices fall below that of dressed chickens and usually the best grades are 12 to 15 cents per pound higher during the holiday season. The world of commerce has become quite complex but the consuming public still has one clear way of speaking to producers. In the language of the dollar we are apparently being asked to raise more turkeys.
