Stochastic Trends In Crop Yield Density Estimation, David I. Maradiaga
Stochastic Trends In Crop Yield Density Estimation, David I. Maradiaga
LSU Master's Theses
The search for improved methods of estimating crop yield density functions has been a theme of recurrent research interest in agricultural economics. Crop yield density functions are the statistical instrument that generates probability estimates of yield risk, and risk is an important decision variable in production agriculture. Recent research in crop yield density estimation suggests that yield probability estimates can be sensitive to the way yield data are filtered, and if true, then the search for an “adequate filter” is warranted. Such a quest is pursued in this study. It is proposed that unit-root tests can be used to identify …
Considerations For Starting A Winery, Justin R. Morris
Considerations For Starting A Winery, Justin R. Morris
AAES Research Reports and Research Bulletins
This publication is for anyone who has ever considered entering the wine industry. The goal of this publication is to provide information about requirements and procedures for starting a winery. It is not a “how-to” manual but rather is designed to serve as a starting point to investigate the many aspects of owning and operating a winery. Although the manuscript frequently refers to procedures for starting a winery in Arkansas, the concepts presented are applicable throughout the U.S. Detailed economic information on starting a winery is covered in a companion publication. Both publications are part of a project supported by …
The Muscadine Experience: Adding Value To Enhance Profits, Justin R. Morris, Pamela L. Brady
The Muscadine Experience: Adding Value To Enhance Profits, Justin R. Morris, Pamela L. Brady
AAES Research Reports and Research Bulletins
The University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture received a grant from the National Research Initiative (NRI), CSREES USDA. The purpose was to help small- and medium-sized farmers and entrepreneurs enhance the viability of their farms through the establishment of vineyards, on-farm wineries, and production of value-added products from grapes and grape by-products. This publication looks at efforts by the UA Grape and Wine Research Program to enhance the profitability of muscadine grapes. Included are discussions of research designed to develop the market potential of muscadines as fresh fruit and as value-added products such as juice, wine, sweet spreads, vinegar, and …

The Muscadine Experience: Adding Value To Enhance Profits, Justin R. Morris, Pamela L. Brady
AAES Research Reports and Research Bulletins
The University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture received a grant from the USDA’s Initiative for Future Agriculture and Food Systems (IFAFS) program. The purpose was to help small- and medium-sized farmers and entrepreneurs become more profitable and therefore add stability to the family farm. One approach to doing this is to investigate opportunities to enhance profits by adding value to traditional raw products.
